100-word summary
Dialpad rolled out tools that let customer service teams test AI agents before going live, avoiding the "build it and pray" phase that kills most chatbot projects. The company claims 70% of customer requests now get resolved on day one. Their new Proving Ground feature lets managers validate return on investment before full rollout by tracking resolution rates and customer satisfaction in real time. A healthcare customer already runs AI agents handling sensitive patient calls under governance controls. The pitch: stop launching AI pilots that flop after three months because no one measured whether they actually work.
