.jpg)
As cities grow and digital expectations rise, public service departments face increasing demand for fast, accessible, and accurate responses. Citizens want help instantly — whether renewing a permit, reporting an issue, or checking local regulations. Dante AI’s AI voice technology makes this possible by transforming how cities interact with residents through conversational, automated, and human-ready support.
How AI Voice Helps Modernize City Services
With Dante AI, municipalities can create intelligent voice assistants that make public communication smoother and more efficient.
When setting up an AI voice assistant in Dante AI, you can:
- Upload public information, frequently asked questions, and policy documents so the voice assistant provides reliable guidance.
- Enable Human Hand Off, allowing residents to connect to a live representative if they need deeper assistance.
- Integrate scheduling links for appointments at municipal offices, such as ID renewals or business registrations.
- Review logs to understand which questions residents ask most often and where to improve communication.
The result: a more efficient and citizen-friendly experience that saves staff time while keeping support personalized and accessible.
