Performance Enablement Across AI Agents and Live Teams

AmplifAI puts unified data at the core and performance enablement around it, giving contact centers one system to run performance across a blended workforce of people and AI. As AI agents take on live customer service work, AmplifAI holds those agents to the same performance management, coaching, and quality standards that develop human representatives, so every customer conversation improves against one bar.

AmplifAI's blended-workforce model spans a connected set of capabilities. Auto QA, quality management, and conversational intelligence score every interaction across live support and AI agents. Customer analytics and insights surface what drives experience across every channel. AI-enabled coaching and performance management software develop each representative, while AI agent performance and governance bring contact center AI under the same standard. Gamification, recognition, and incentive management keep frontline teams motivated on the results that matter.

“Automation in the contact center only creates value when someone is accountable for how it performs. AmplifAI manages AI agents and live teams to one performance standard, so leaders can scale automation without losing the quality, coaching, and customer experience their brand depends on.”
~ Sean Minter | CEO, AmplifAI

Sean Minter founded AmplifAI after spending 25+ years building, running, and turning around contact center businesses. Before AmplifAI, Diamond Castle Holdings, a $4B private equity fund, brought Sean in as President and COO of PRC, a global BPO with more than 10,000 contact center agents and $300M+ in annual revenue. Sean led PRC’s turnaround and eventual acquisition by Alorica. Running contact center operations at scale exposed the gaps existing software could not close. Sean founded AmplifAI to solve those problems, building an end-to-end contact center performance system that unifies data from every source into a single AI-ready layer, delivering actions to every level of the organization from agents to VPs.

Sean is a serial entrepreneur who has founded four technology companies, including Reallinx, a managed network and security provider later acquired by GTT. Sean was named an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Southwest Award finalist in consecutive years, and AmplifAI has been recognized on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. Sean holds an MBA from Southern Methodist University and a BS in Electrical Engineering from Ohio State.
