Customer support agents are up against a tough task as they’re juggling multiple systems, clicking through endless tabs, and trying to make sense of massive amounts of information—all while delivering great service in real time. It’s no wonder that 76% of agents say they’re overwhelmed by the very tools meant to help them. For CX leaders, this is also a challenge. Business efficiency and customer experience are crucial priorities, but improving one often feels like it comes at the expense of the other. The key to tackling this challenge is to simplify how agents use contact center systems and tools.
Talkdesk Embedded is a groundbreaking Talkdesk capability that integrates powerful Talkdesk solutions directly into the platforms agents already use—whether it’s a CRM, a help desk, or other essential software. Traditional integrations typically connect separate systems or tools with limited functionality but Talkdesk Embedded, rather than simply linking platforms together, seamlessly adds to the core of existing workflows, AI features, and other Talkdesk apps within the CRM or help desk interface. Instead of making systems “talk” to each other, it natively integrates Talkdesk capabilities directly into the agent’s workspace, allowing them to access all the necessary tools and information in one place, without ever leaving the platform they’re familiar with.
AI-driven technology, like Talkdesk Copilot™, takes this even further by using generative AI to deliver real-time, relevant information during interactions. When companies embed AI tools like this into their agents’ workflows, the impact is clear. Teams using generative AI are 35% less likely to feel overwhelmed because the AI filters out the noise and highlights what’s important, exactly when it’s needed.

Talkdesk Embedded: Unifying the agent experience.
Agent’s work requires speed and accuracy, but navigating a maze of separate systems and tools creates friction, slows down response times, and often leads to frustration. Bringing the key AI-powered Talkdesk components into a unified workspace keeps agents from having to juggle multiple systems and handle everything from interactions to case management within a single interface.
Creating a unified agent workspace allows agents to access everything they need from one location—whether that’s retrieving customer information from Salesforce, managing tickets in Zendesk, or using AI insights to guide a conversation. Talkdesk Embedded brings all of these touchpoints together in a way that feels natural and intuitive, increasing agent productivity, reducing errors, and enhancing the customer experience. Agents are empowered to do their best work, without the distraction of switching between disconnected platforms.
Supercharging agent productivity with Talkdesk Embedded.
Customer demands are growing in complexity and agents are expected to handle more, faster, and with greater precision. Adding another CX tool may trigger concerns among CX leaders and make them question how another layer of technology could affect their agent workflows. Instead of adding complexity, Talkdesk Embedded empowers agents to work smarter by seamlessly placing powerful tools right at their fingertips, within the platforms they already use. For example, Talkdesk Copilot provides agents with actionable insights in real time, and AI capabilities like automatic conversation summaries and contextual recommendations help agents deliver smoother, more accurate service and quicker resolutions.
While the impact of AI on productivity is widely recognized, its use must always be guided by ethical principles. CX leaders must trust that AI ensures ethical customer service, as inaccurate or misleading outputs can have serious consequences, such as damaged customer trust or compliance violations, among others. Talkdesk AI solutions come with built-in guardrails that ensure the AI operates within the parameters of company policies and best practices, reducing the risks and maximizing the benefits.
Customization and flexibility: Talkdesk Embedded fits any business.
Talkdesk provides a highly adaptable solution and integrates seamlessly with several platforms, enabling businesses to easily customize components that fit their unique requirements and ensuring a perfect match with their existing workflows and systems. The key to this flexibility is Talkdesk Builder, low-code developer tools that allow IT teams to change and optimize components quickly and without heavy coding.
For enterprises using homegrown platforms, Talkdesk also offers the same seamless integration experience. Even with bespoke environments, the Talkdesk AI-powered tools can be embedded, ensuring agents have access to everything they need within their existing workspace. The Talkdesk low-code and no-code options enable IT teams to integrate the full suite of applications or the specific tools they need, creating a fully customized solution.
Talkdesk Embedded is transforming how customer support teams operate, enabling agents to work smarter and more efficiently with the tools they already use. It maximizes productivity through seamless integrations and low-code customization and eliminates the friction that often slows down workflows, allowing agents to focus on delivering memorable customer experiences. The no code, low code approach lightens the load of IT teams, reducing the burden of complex coding and enabling faster implementation and fewer roadblocks.
