European Business Communications Provider Dstny Acquires Tactful AI to Accelerate its Position in the Customer Experience Platform Market
BRUSSELS, May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

The acquisition takes Dstny to the next level in customer engagement, enabling 
companies to employ Artificial Intelligence and data in their customer 
experience operations with minimum effort.

Dstny, the European leader in business communications, announced the 
acquisition of Tactful AI, a technology start-up based in the UK and Egypt, 
that provides a cutting-edge intelligent customer experience platform. The 
acquisition extends Dstny's products portfolio and helps companies enhance 
customer engagement operations across modern digital and traditional voice 
channels.

"With Tactful onboard, we are not only strengthening ourselves with 
next-generation Customer Engagement technology, we are also adding an excellent 
team to our group," says Daan De Wever, CEO Dstny Group.

As competition increases, businesses are competing mainly on customer 
experience. Tactful's Unified Customer Experience Platform (UCX) is an AI and 
data-centric solution that empowers business users to manage, engage, and 
understand the customer journey across multiple touchpoints. It includes a 
complete omnichannel digital contact centre, multilingual conversational 
chatbots, and conversational analytics.

"Tactful and Dstny share the same vision to bring employees and customers 
together through interactive communications tools.  We both believe we can 
positively impact people's lives even better together. By joining Dstny, we are 
excited to accelerate our go-to-market strategy and bring even more value to 
our customers," Mohamed Elmasry, co-founder, and CEO of Tactful AI. 

With the out of the box, no-code AI-powered automation engine, any organisation 
can employ AI and data in their customer experience operations with minimum 
effort regardless of its technical capacity.

"Our M&A strategy is all about product and revenue synergies, not cost 
synergies like you often see elsewhere. In that way, we grow faster as joint 
companies, and our customers get access to more and better products much 
faster. Tactful is a perfect match in every way, and we are excited to start 
working together," says Chris Parker, Dstny Group.
