Support Experience

Customer support isn't just a cost center—it’s the heartbeat of your brand. Based on the principles of the book Support Experience, this podcast dives into the strategies that transform standard service into a competitive advantage.

Voice of the Customer is the lifeblood of every technology business. But most companies lose touch with it as they scale, leading to poor customer experiences and high churn.

Some companies, however, have taken a different path. They not only stay in touch with the Voice of the Customer... they amplify it with artificial intelligence and smart automation. Their secret? Building a world-class Support Experience.

Support Experience transforms customer support from a reactive cost center to a proactive profit center. It empowers your people to deliver exceptional support at scale. It turns customer conversations into tangible product improvements, fueling the long-term health of your business.

Krishna Raj Raja shares the blueprint for building a thriving business in the age of AI while making customer support more human than ever, with examples from iconic companies like Apple, Adobe, Google, Salesforce, Snowflake, VMware, and more. This podcast is for CEOs, Chief Customer Officers, Customer Support Leaders, Product Managers, and anyone looking to leverage AI for better customer experiences.

  • Are Ambient AI Agents the Future of Enterprise Support?
    Mar 18 2026

    Are we truly entering the intelligence era, or is the buzz around AI agents just a Super Bowl advertising trend? In this episode, we cut through the noise to explore the real-world applications of agentic AI in the enterprise.


    We unpack the conversation between industry experts Thomas Law of TSIA and Krishna Raj Raja, CEO of SupportLogic, as they break down the critical shift from standard interactive AI (like ChatGPT) to the invisible power of "Ambient AI". Unlike traditional chatbots that require a prompt, Ambient AI runs continuously in the background 24/7, monitoring unstructured data like emails, voice calls, and Zoom transcripts to provide proactive insights.

    Key topics we will cover include:

    • The Workflow Evolution: How companies are migrating from traditional knowledge work to being "AI-augmented" and eventually "AI-automated".
    • Connecting the Dots: The massive challenge of "context stitching" across fragmented enterprise systems and how AI can break down informational silos to give a complete picture of customer health.
    • The Engine vs. The Car: Why large language models (the engine) aren't enough on their own, and why enterprises need to build secure, reliable infrastructure (the car) around them using technologies like Precision RAG to prevent hallucinations.
    • Measuring Real ROI: Discover how early adopters are finding immediate value by consolidating redundant software, drastically reducing case escalations, and protecting their net dollar retention.

    Whether you are trying to understand where your company falls on the AI adoption spectrum or looking to leverage your unstructured data to build a better customer experience, this episode will help you separate the AI myths from reality. Tune in to learn how to make your technology work smarter, silently, in the background.

  • Quantifying GenAI Confidence in Customer Support: Judge LLMs and Automated Scoring Loops
    Mar 13 2026

    In this episode, we explore how the SupportLogic Engineering Team is transforming generative AI summarization from a risky, black-box experiment into a trustworthy, enterprise-grade system. Moving GenAI into real-world production requires more than just a good underlying model—it demands measurable confidence. We break down SupportLogic's innovative evaluation framework, which relies on "Judge LLMs" to automatically assess AI-generated summaries across six critical dimensions: faithfulness, instruction adherence, hallucination risk, topic coverage, clarity, and persona usability.


    Listen in as we discuss how this continuous, automated scoring loop enables data-driven prompt tuning and dynamic model routing. We also dive into their latest benchmark data, comparing the quality and cost-efficiency of top-tier models like Claude 4 Sonnet, Gemini 1.5 Pro, and GPT-4o Mini. Whether you are balancing high-stakes accuracy with latency-sensitive workflows or simply trying to eliminate hallucinations in customer-facing summaries, this episode provides a strategic roadmap for deploying GenAI with quantifiable, reliable results.

  • The Billion-Dollar Generative AI Illusion
    Mar 11 2026

    In this episode, we strip away the hype surrounding modern artificial intelligence to explore the reality of AI in Customer Experience (CX). We discuss why AI should be viewed as "intelligent automation" rather than magic, and examine the fundamental shift from deterministic to probabilistic computing. Discover why a massive, billion-dollar Large Language Model can fail at basic math while a pocket calculator from the 1970s succeeds, and what this means for enterprise technology.

    We dive deep into why a staggering number of generative AI projects fail, tracing the root causes to unrealistic expectations and a lack of proper infrastructure. Listeners will learn about the "last mile" problem in automation and how modern organizations are held back by four massive enterprise silos: data, context, signals, and AI itself.


    To overcome these hurdles, we explore the rise of highly composable "ambient AI agents" that run continuously in the background to extract valuable customer signals, resolve issues, and provide critical contextual memory. Emphasizing that AI is like fire or nuclear power, we highlight why continuous human oversight and monitoring are foundational to safely taming AI's capabilities.

    Finally, we challenge the invisible constraints holding the industry back. We urge business leaders to shift their mindset away from using AI purely for cost-cutting and back-office efficiency, and instead use it to spark a "cognitive revolution" that creates entirely new value, personalized services, and revenue opportunities for the future of CX
