Introduction

Where does Clinc come in?

In the process of delivering high quality conversational AI to end users, Clinc provides the crucial components of Natural Language Understanding (NLU), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Natural Language Generation (NLG). Once an utterance from a user is converted into text, our AI engine interprets what the user is asking or trying to accomplish. Our AI engine then calls on the appropriate third parties (such as an external database) to help provide the necessary data to help get the user an answer or carry out an action. Because we are ASR (automatic speech recognition)-agnostic, we can be connected to any device whether it be mobile, web app, or a smart speaker.
