Invoca Expands AI Agent Suite to Tackle the Conversion Crisis
Invoca has announced a significant expansion of its AI agent capabilities, introducing tools built to address the point where marketing investment most often fails, the conversion stage.
The launch centres on two products, an AI Voice Agent and an expanded AI Messaging Agent, both targeting the stage where buyer intent is highest, and losses are most damaging.
According to Invoca, nearly 40% of inbound calls never reach a human agent, while up to 85% of online transactions are abandoned before completion. Marketers spend billions generating that inbound intent, then watch a substantial portion of it disappear at the point of conversion.
Modern buyers have been conditioned by AI-native platforms to expect instant, relevant answers. When a brand cannot match that speed, the next competitor is a click away. Until now, marketers have largely been spectators at the conversion stage, able to influence the top of the funnel but with limited visibility or control over what happens when buyers take the next step.
What the new agents do
The AI Voice Agent brings real-time intelligence to live phone interactions by using digital journey data, which ad the caller clicked and the pages they visited, before the conversation even begins. It qualifies leads, routes high-intent callers to the right agents, and deflects lower-value calls away from revenue teams. Critically, it connects every call outcome back to the marketing source that generated it, giving marketers a closed loop between spend and result.
The AI Messaging Agent operates across SMS and web, activating wherever a buyer stalls, after a form submission, a missed call, or a period of inactivity. Research cited by Invoca indicates that contacting a lead within the first minute of intent increases conversion rates by 391%. The messaging agent makes that response time viable at scale, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It comes pre-trained on a brand’s highest-converting conversations and handles appointment booking, rescheduling, and callback management automatically.
Earlier this year, Invoca acquired Symbl.ai in a move designed to integrate agentic AI across the buyer journey, bringing Symbl.ai’s advanced language models and multi-agent orchestration tools into Invoca’s revenue execution platform. The new agent announcements build directly on that infrastructure.
First-Party Data as the Differentiator
What Invoca is emphasising as the key distinction between its agents and generic AI alternatives is the data they run on. Rather than using off-the-shelf models trained on third-party data, Invoca’s agents are trained on each brand’s own customer conversations and first-party signals, the campaigns, the pages visited, and the intent indicators generated throughout the buyer journey.
The company’s PreSense product, now available on the Genesys AppFoundry, routes incoming calls based on a user’s digital behaviour, including which ad they clicked and what products they viewed, delivering that context to agents in real time so conversations do not begin from zero. The new AI agents extend that same logic into automated interactions, not just human-assisted ones.
Because every outcome feeds back into the platform, marketers gain a continuous feedback loop of what drives demand, what converts it, and how to optimise both over time. The AI Messaging Agent is available now, while the AI Voice Agent launches in beta this summer.
