The CX Gap Is Real — AI Can Help Close It

78% of companies think they’ve improved CX. Only 31% of customers agree. This report shows what to do about it.

Your CX dashboards say things are working. Your customers disagree.

A global MIT Technology Review survey of 1,000+ CX leaders reveals a big disconnect — and a big opportunity. While most companies say they’ve improved service, customers aren’t feeling it. The fix? Smarter, human-centered AI.

The Connected Customer: AI’s Role in Better CX

This NiCE-sponsored report explores how brands like Shell and Lufthansa are closing that gap — using AI to route smarter, surface knowledge faster and actually make agents’ lives easier. It’s not about replacing people. It’s about supporting them with the tools to deliver what customers actually want.
