Products

Voice Agents
Telephone agents handling spoken support calls with low enough latency to feel natural to the caller. Voice is where most support volume still sits, and it is considerably harder to get right than text because there is nowhere to hide a pause.
decagonhq.com
Admin Dashboard
Tools for reviewing conversations, testing changes and measuring resolution quality. Without this a company cannot safely change a production agent, which is the main reason enterprises hesitate to deploy one.
decagonhq.com
Agent Operating Procedures
Structured instructions defining how the agent should behave in specific situations. Support teams write and adjust these themselves, which is what keeps the vendor out of the loop for every policy change.
decagonhq.com
AI Support Agents
Agents that resolve customer conversations across chat, email and voice without a human. Charging per resolution rather than per seat aligns the vendor's revenue with whether the agent actually works, which is unusual in this category.
