Adomas Baltagalvis, Head of Eddy AI by TripAdd, says:
“We are very excited to be working with the Montserrat Tourism Division. The new AI travel assistant is proof of Montserrat’s commitment to digitizing its activities and expanding the available services to tourists. The AI-powered chatbot will provide a unique way to engage travelers not only on the Visit Montserrat website but also on Facebook and Instagram. We hope we can help more people discover the wonderful island of Montserrat with the AI assistant.”
In building and customizing this chatbot, especially for Montserrat, Rosetta West-Gerald, Director of Tourism commented:
“This AI assistant fondly called Oriole after the iconic national bird, is timely and especially useful for us to provide quality after care service in real time so that customers always feel connected. Improving customer service is our priority and providing the opportunity to use the website as well as Facebook and Instagram as a one stop shop has always been a goal of the Tourism Division and which we hope will make the user experience more rewarding in planning their visit to Montserrat.” She added that “working with the team at Eddy AI was in itself an experience, the team was knowledgeable and helpful and made the process easy.”
