Strategic partnership with Syndeo enables enterprises to deploy advanced AI agents inside Vonage Contact Center
Holmdel, NJ (June 3, 2026) — Vonage, part of Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC), today announced the launch of vertical-specific AI intelligence in the contact center. Through a strategic partnership with agentic AI solution provider Syndeo, Vonage is embedding vertical-trained AI agents directly inside Vonage Contact Center (VCC). The integration combines Vonage’s award-winning contact center platform with advanced AI agents to deliver seamless, governed customer engagement without the need for custom integrations or switching between tools.
As enterprises across industries accelerate AI adoption, many struggle to operationalize vertical-specific automation into the contact center without fragmenting customer journeys or increasing operational complexity. Through its strategic partnership with Syndeo, Vonage addresses this challenge by enabling enterprises to deploy vertical-trained AI automation directly within VCC, enhancing a unified customer experience while maintaining enterprise-grade governance, security, and compliance. All automation is delivered within the agent and supervisor workspace, designed to augment human decision-making.
“The launch of vertical-specific intelligence through this strategic partnership with Syndeo marks a significant step in how we are helping our enterprise customers leverage AI within their contact centers,” said Rodney Hassard, Head of Product, Applications for Vonage. “By enabling enterprises across industries to deploy vertical-specific AI capabilities into a unified, intelligent contact center environment, we’re delivering flexible, scalable, and human-centric solutions that elevate the customer experience. Enterprises have the power to tailor every interaction to their unique industry’s needs while maintaining trust and aligning to vertical or regional compliance regulations.”
