At Intrado, we’re always thinking ahead, redefining how artificial intelligence (AI) shapes our world. As we continue to lead the way in emergency communications, our mission remains simple: to connect people and organizations in innovative ways. Our AI solutions aren’t just about enhancing efficiency—they’re about transforming how we operate every day, improving customer experiences, and responding effectively when it matters most.

In this blog, we’ll explore how Intrado’s AI solutions are making waves across different industries, from elevating operational excellence to supporting life and enhancing public safety responses. Let’s continue to dive into how our cutting-edge AI is driving real change.

Intrado’s AI Solutions: Where Efficiency Meets Engagement

AI isn’t just a trendy buzzword for us, it’s a tool that sets new standards in communication, customer support, and operations. We’ve tailored our AI offerings specifically for Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) and telecommunicators to meet the unique challenges they face daily. Here’s a closer look at how we’re leading this change.

How AI Transforms PSAPs: Our Commitment to Public Safety

Public safety is at the heart of what we do, and we understand the immense pressure PSAP teams face every day. That’s why our AI solutions are designed to take on the routine tasks, reduce errors, and give telecommunicators the tools they need to focus on what matters most: helping people in crisis. Here’s how we’re making a difference:

  • Quality Assurance: Picture this: every call reviewed, 100% visibility, and 10 times faster than traditional methods. Our AI makes this possible. By speeding up call reviews, we help PSAPs improve their communication strategies, allowing them to be more proactive and catch potential issues early.
  • Voice-to-Text Transcription: Real-time transcription with automatic language detection—how does that sound? Pretty game-changing, right? Our AI captures crucial information as it happens, eliminating delays and ensuring that every detail is recorded accurately. In emergencies, every second counts, and we’re here to make sure nothing gets lost in translation.
  • Text-2-911 Translation: Texting for help is on the rise, and our AI is ready to support it. With real-time language detection and translation, our Text-2-911 technology breaks down language barriers and ensures that PSAPs are equipped to handle diverse communications. It’s about being there for everyone, no matter their language.
  • AI-Enhanced Command Center: We know that efficiency isn’t just about doing things faster—it’s also about taking care of the people behind the screens. Our AI tools monitor team performance, identify trends, and even help manage burnout. By analyzing workload and stress indicators, we’re not just supporting operations; we’re supporting the incredible teams who keep our communities safe.

The Impact: Real Stories, Real Results

The impact of Intrado’s AI goes beyond just numbers on a page—it’s about real-life outcomes that matter. Here’s what our technology is achieving in the field:

  • 50% Reduction in Call Handling Times: Faster connections lead to quicker emergency responses. By streamlining workflows, our AI enables telecommunicators to get help to those in need without delay. This can make all the difference in critical moments.
  • 70% Faster Translation: Imagine a world where language is no longer a barrier to getting help. Our AI makes that a reality with real-time translation, empowering PSAPs to provide the right support, regardless of the caller's language.
  • Improved Accuracy: When the stakes are high, there’s no room for error. Our AI minimizes human mistakes in high-pressure scenarios, enhancing the quality and reliability of information sent to emergency responders.
