Cogito Company Overview

Founded in 2007 as a spinout from the MIT Media Lab, Cogito Corp has been at the forefront of applying AI to improve human interactions in high-pressure environments like customer service centers. The company’s AI-powered platform, developed initially to help healthcare providers detect early signs of PTSD in veterans, now serves a wide array of sectors including healthcare, insurance, and financial services. Cogito's product suite includes tools like Cogito Companion, which provides real-time coaching and feedback to agents during calls, and Cogito Intelligence, which offers insights into customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX) through data analysis. The platform's ability to analyze over 200 acoustic and lexical signals in real-time helps agents enhance communication effectiveness, thereby improving customer satisfaction and operational efficiency. Key to Cogito’s innovation is its focus on 'Emotion AI', which assists agents in understanding and responding to the emotional state of customers during interactions. This capability not only aids in customer retention by personalizing the service experience but also boosts agent morale and productivity by offering support in stressful job roles. Furthermore, Cogito’s offerings are highly adaptable to various operational scales, demonstrated by its deployment across some of the largest contact centers in the world, including several Fortune 25 companies.
