San Mateo, CA, USA, Feb. 26, 2020 -- Freshworks Inc., a customer engagement software company, announced the acquisition of AnsweriQ Inc., a provider of ML and AI for larger enterprises that want to better serve their customers. AnsweriQ complements Freshworks' AI engine, Freddy, by enabling enterprise organizations to fully leverage their existing customer data to scale self-service experiences and automate complex customer workflows.
AnsweriQ's technology augments Freddy's AI capabilities and helps scale self-service for large enterprises. Freddy will incorporate AnsweriQ's AI to learn from ticket data and agent actions within the Freshworks Customer-for-Life Cloud and improve customer self-service capabilities.
Freshworks also announced that AnsweriQ CEO Pradeep Rathinam has joined the senior executive team as chief customer officer, aligning the weight of the entire organization towards successful outcomes for businesses that keep and grow customers for life. In his new role, Rathinam will align the entire organization to make customers powerful advocates for Freshworks by delivering successful business outcomes. He will oversee the company's global customer support, onboarding and customer success organizations, further increasing satisfaction, retention and success of the combined customer base, including AnsweriQ customers 2K Games, Freshly and SeatGeek.
"Unlike clunky, siloed, legacy SaaS solutions, Freshworks is innovating to deliver a powerful and seamless experience across sales, marketing, customer success and support functions," said Pradeep Rathinam, former AnsweriQ CEO and Freshworks Chief Customer Officer. "With Freshworks' commitment to deploying enterprise-scale AI to better understand customers and build relationships for life, this acquisition is a natural fit. I'm excited to join Freshworks as their new chief customer officer as we create delightful experiences for enterprises that use our products worldwide."
