Tinkoff updates voice assistant Oleg to help customers with savings & debt

Source: IBS Intelligence
Russia-based Tinkoff’s voice assistant Oleg has acquired a new set of skills for helping the Bank’s customers with their payments and setting spending limits as well as with recurring payments on times and credit card bills in the Tinkoff SuperApp. Oleg is expected to enable users to limit their unplanned spending by setting daily, weekly, or monthly spending limits of the customer’s choice, with the command, “Oleg, let’s save.”
The voice assistant has been designed to alert customers when they are nearing the spending limit and report the user’s goal at the end of the specified timeframe. It also sends reminders for making recurring payments on time and helps customers in paying them immediately. The command “Oleg, check my credit card” will enable the voice assistant to show the minimum card payment, the grace period payment, and the total debt amount. Users can pay their debts via the chat with Oleg.
Tinkoff stated that the voice assistant, since its launch in 2019, has been updated to handle various operations, including money transfers, mobile bill payments, showing customer’s income and expenses, credit card bill payments, etc. The company said in their press statement, “For Tinkoff Mobile subscribers Oleg is a personal voice concierge answering incoming calls, talking and joking with people on the other end, recording and converting audio messages to text using speech-to-text technologies.”
“In the future, Oleg will be even more capable: he will update you on major financial news and prices of securities, remind you about important payments, help you maintain your budget – he will tell you how much spare cash you have and what big-ticket purchases you can plan next. Oleg will also be able to arrange a trip, select and pay for hotels, make flight and rail bookings, manage reservations, buy tickets to theatres, concerts, and sporting events, make an appointment with a doctor, offer leisure options for the evening, give investment tips in the Tinkoff Investments app, etc. “
The Bank’s voice assistant is also expected to be able to recognise customers’ voices using Tinkoff’s biometric technology and fulfill voice commands.
