The Problem
Agents recognize frustration too late to prevent escalation
By the time a support agent notices a customer is upset, the conversation has often passed the point of easy recovery. Missed vocal cues lead to longer handle times, escalations to supervisors, and lower satisfaction scores—costing your team both time and trust.
The Solution
AI-powered tone alerts that keep every call on track
Tonvo continuously monitors the customer's vocal tone and flags rising frustration within milliseconds. Agents receive live prompts with empathy phrases, clarifying questions, and resolution shortcuts tailored to the detected mood, turning potential escalations into positive outcomes.
Key Features for This Use Case

Faster Resolution Times

“Our escalation rate dropped dramatically in the first month. Agents feel more confident because they see the warning signs before the customer even raises their voice.”
