Welcome to the Tearsheet Podcast. I’m Tearsheet’s editor in chief, Zack Miller. Eighteen months ago, there was a lot of talk around voice and the possibilities of using human speech as a new automated channel in financial services. There’s less talk now but the technology continues to improve. Today’s guest on the podcast is Clinc’s Jon Newhard. He’s been around technology a lot for the past 25 years and as Clinc’s newly appointed CEO, he’s juiced at the opportunity to be able to understand unstructured speech and interpret the underlying meaning of customer support inquiries. Clinc provides its customers – primarily banks and financial institutions – with the tools needed to improve their customer support services. Jon Newhard is my guest today on the Tearsheet Podcast.
