CentrixDial

AI & human-agent switching

AI and human agents in one call center

AI when you need automation. Human agents when it matters. CentrixDial combines AI voice automation and human agents in one call flow. You decide which calls AI handles, and when a person takes over.

A customer call routed through CentrixDial: routine questions answered by an AI voice agent, other calls handed to a human agent who sees the caller details, summary and sentiment

What is AI and human-agent contact centre software?

It is contact centre software where AI voice agents and human agents work in the same call flow. AI handles routine interactions, and people take the conversations that need judgement, empathy or authority.

In CentrixDial you configure the rules: which calls AI answers, which go straight to a person, and what triggers a handover. Agents receive the context the AI gathered, so callers do not start again.

How it works

Three calls, three different paths.

The same platform handles each scenario differently, based on rules your administrators set.

Routine enquiry

  1. 01 Caller asks a routine question For example opening times or order status
  2. 02 AI answers Within its approved scope
  3. 03 Resolved Outcome logged and available in reports

Caller asks for a person

  1. 01 Caller says “agent” Or presses the option you configured
  2. 02 Transfer Routed to the right queue or in-group
  3. 03 Agent picks up with context Caller details and AI summary on screen

Complex complaint

  1. 01 AI detects a complaint Or a topic you marked as human-only
  2. 02 Routed to specialist team Such as retention or escalations
  3. 03 Follow-up recorded Actions written back to the lead record

Capabilities

Automation you configure, not automation you hope for.

01

Choose the calling mode

Run a queue, campaign or time window with AI first, humans only, or AI with human escalation.

02

AI handles routine interactions

Approved FAQs, basic information requests and first-line enquiry collection.

03

Humans handle complex conversations

Complaints, sensitive enquiries, requests for a person and anything outside the AI’s approved scope.

04

Context-aware transfers

Where configured, agents receive the caller’s details, conversation history and an AI-generated summary.

05

Business-controlled automation

Administrators set the circumstances under which calls stay with AI or move to agents, and can change them without code.

06

One report for both

AI-handled and agent-handled calls appear in the same call log, dashboards and wallboards.

Good to know

Benefits and limits, stated plainly.

  • You stay in control. AI only handles the call types you assign to it, and you can switch a queue back to humans-only at any time.
  • A human handover should always be available. Design flows so callers are never trapped with the AI.
  • Context transfer depends on how the flow is configured and which systems are connected.
  • Start small with one or two routine call types, review results, then expand.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can AI calls be transferred to human agents?

Yes. Transfers can be triggered by the caller, by topic, or when the AI reaches the limit of what it is allowed to handle.

Can a human agent take over a conversation?

Yes. Calls that need extra attention can be routed to an agent, who receives the context gathered so far where that is configured.

Can we run some queues with humans only?

Yes. Calling mode is set per queue, campaign or time window, so you can keep sensitive lines fully staffed by people.

Do AI-handled calls show up in our reports?

Yes. They appear alongside agent-handled calls in the call log, dashboards and wallboards, so you see the whole picture.
