News Release Details

Marchex’s AI-powered Sentiment Suite is recognized for its ability to analyze customer perceptions to improve CSAT and NPS Strategies.

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 14, 2025-- Marchex (NASDAQ: MCHX), which harnesses the power of AI and conversational intelligence to drive operational excellence and revenue acceleration, today announced that the Marchex Sentiment Suite has been named New Product of the Year by the Business Intelligence Group as part of its prestigious 2024 BIG Awards for Business. This recognition highlights Sentiment Suite’s new, innovative approach to analyzing and understanding customer perception.

The BIG Awards for Business honor companies and products that lead their industries with transformative solutions and vision. Marchex Sentiment Suite won for using its advanced generative AI trained on first-party data to accurately capture and interpret the nuances of industry-specific customer sentiment.

Sentiment Suite gives organizations a more detailed understanding of customer emotions derived from conversations so company leaders can better understand what is driving both negative and positive experiences, such as appointment availability, product performance, price, scheduling, and agent accountability. One of the most powerful components of the award-winning Sentiment Suite is its ability to identify and engage dissatisfied customers early and encourage happy customers to share their experiences, helping to improve performance and business value.

“Sentiment Suite helps businesses understand customer sentiment in a holistic manner. Previously, businesses relied on surveys and review sites, which account for a small fraction of customer feedback,” said Troy Hartless, Chief Revenue Officer at Marchex.

Perhaps most critical to the success and power of Sentiment Suite is its ability to proactively provide businesses with real-time customer feedback. This closes the biggest gap for understanding what is driving both negative and positive experiences. For example, each negative interaction is categorized into the specific reasons for the experience, such as long hold times, agent knowledge gaps, pricing issues, difficulty scheduling, late performance, or unresolved issues.

“The BIG Awards for Business spotlight those whose innovative spirit, commitment to progress, and resilience are not only advancing their fields, but inspiring a global movement,” said Russ Fordyce, CEO of the Business Intelligence Group. "Congratulations to Marchex and its Sentiment Suite for their outstanding contribution to the field of conversation intelligence.”
