Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience is Google Cloud's customer service AI stack, the 2026 successor to Contact Center AI. Its centerpiece, Customer Experience Agent Studio, lets teams build multimodal support agents on a drag and drop canvas that talk with customers over chat and phone in humanlike voices across more than 40 languages, handling text, audio, and images. Agent Assist coaches human reps live with transcription, summarization, and knowledge suggestions, while Customer Experience Insights surfaces service trends from conversation data. A companion CCaaS layer, built with UJET, supplies the actual contact center routing and telephony.
The product line launched as Contact Center AI at Google Cloud Next in July 2018, and that launch is the founding year used here since Google itself dates to 1998. It became Customer Engagement Suite with Google AI in September 2024, then was folded into Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience at the NRF retail show in January 2026. The results are real: Verizon put Agent Assist in front of 28,000 care reps, Bell Canada credits the suite with 20 million dollars in savings, and Kroger, Papa Johns, Lowe's, and Woolworths signed on as early adopters of the new agentic tools.
Pricing is published and usage based, which is rare in this market. Agent Studio sessions cost 50 cents each for chat or voice, with voice overage at a quarter of a cent per second after five minutes. Agent Assist starts at $0.002 per chat message or 3 cents per voice minute. The CCaaS platform and migrations from older Dialogflow agents are quote based through sales.
Choose Google if you want top tier conversational AI building blocks, transparent metered pricing, and the muscle of Google's speech and Gemini models, and you have the engineering capacity to assemble them. Skip it if you need a turnkey helpdesk in an afternoon, or if constant renaming makes you nervous: this product has had three names in three years.

interface.ai sells AI agents purpose built for credit unions and community banks. Its BankGPT platform, launched in late 2025, spans Agentic Voice AI that answers member phone calls, Agentic Chat AI for web and mobile, and Agentic Employee AI that assists staff, all wired into core banking systems so the agents can actually do things: check balances, move money, manage cards, take loan payments. The agents authenticate members and complete transactions rather than just deflecting calls. In 2026 it added Smart Collections, a multi channel collections agent, and a bundled CCaaS offering through the Telarus partner program.
Srinivas Njay and Bruce Kim launched interface.ai in 2019, and Njay's origin story is genuinely charming: his father ran a credit union in India, and the company was built around institutions of that scale. It bootstrapped to more than 100 financial institution customers and tens of millions in annual recurring revenue before taking its first outside money in October 2024, a $30 million round led by Avataar Venture Partners, of which $20 million was equity and $10 million debt. The company says it now handles over 1.5 million conversations a day.
Pricing is entirely quote based. Nothing is published on the site, no tiers, no starting numbers, and deals are scoped to institution size, channels, and integrations. The company markets ROI cases rather than price points, which is common in this space but means you should benchmark against rivals like Posh AI, Glia, and Eltropy, and ask hard questions about one time implementation fees on top of the subscription.
Choose interface.ai if you run a credit union or community bank and want deep, prebuilt core integrations, it claims more than 40 Jack Henry implementations alone, plus voice as the flagship channel. It is a poor fit outside banking, and larger banks with in house AI teams or non financial businesses should look at horizontal platforms instead.
