The AI Imperative in Business Communications
The AI Imperative in Business Communications draws on Metrigy's AI for Business Success: 2025-26 global study of more than 1,100 organizations, plus a survey of 503 North American consumers. It shows where AI is delivering measurable value in customer and employee engagement. The report covers average business benefits, including 27% revenue growth and 32% CSAT improvement. It compares agentic AI with task-specific AI, including pros, cons and adoption. It also examines virtual receptionists, agent assist and copilots, supervisor use of AI for quality management and coaching, and conversation intelligence. A spending section details average AI investment per employee and which industries spend and grow the most. The report closes with seven recommendations for business, CX and IT leaders deciding how and where to invest in AI for business communications.
