Cresta's customer-service AI suite spins fake customers from real call transcripts to train new hires
testingcatalog · x · 2026-09-09
Customer-service AI company Cresta showcased a notable piece of its agent suite: a Training Simulator that generates fake customers from real call transcripts, letting new hires practice on hard calls before going live.
Cresta's platform spans automation (AI agents), augmentation (real-time agent assist), and analytics (quality management), with customers including United Airlines, Alaska Airlines, and CVS. It's promotional, but the idea of simulating training environments from real historical data is a useful reference for customer-service AI deployments.
