Azure AI Foundry Agent Service

Commerzbank's AI agent Ava autonomously resolves 75% of 30,000+ monthly customer conversations

Commerzbank AG, one of Germany's leading financial institutions, built Ava, an AI-powered conversational agent using Microsoft Foundry Agent Service, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Content Safety, and Azure Cosmos DB. Ava uses natural language processing to interpret customer intent and manage complex, high-value requests such as credit card lifecycle management and balance inquiries, escalating to a human colleague when needed. Ava manages more than 30,000 customer conversations every month, resolving about 75% of requests autonomously and providing round-the-clock support, while Azure AI Content Safety filters sensitive data and detects potential fraud patterns to maintain regulatory compliance.
