AI Helps in Providing High-Quality Counseling to More Children

Every year, more and more inquiries are made by children to the helpline BørneTelefonen, and Børns Vilkår wanted to reduce the number of unanswered calls. In 2019, after a joint workshop, Børns Vilkår and NTT DATA found that an AI solution could help reduce the number of unanswered inquiries to BørneTelefonen by utilizing their data from previous conversations to help the counselors to give the best possible help to children.

Why NTT DATA Business Solutions?

  • Børns Vilkår appreciated NTT DATA’s expertise and experience, as AI was completely new territory to them
  • The project was explored with a high degree of co-creation including advisor involvement at all stages and driven by NTT DATA’s genuine interest in understanding the organization, its needs, and challenges
  • Driven by a mutual interest in using ethical AI to serve a higher purpose, NTT DATA saw great potential in helping BørneTelefonen

We were sitting on a goldmine of data without being able to explore it properly – and this project has helped us with that. Now, with the chat support tool Rådgiverassistenten, we use our data to help even more children.
