Here’s how you do it

Overview

We enable you to include everyone in the conversation.

It’s simple. When one of the nearly 48 million who are deaf or hard of hearing call you, our special software then validates the call and instantly routes it to an agent. The call is private and secure with no middleman.

Once that call is validated, the TTY call instantly pops up on your agent’s computer. Your deaf or hard of hearing customer and your staff are now communicating directly via chat. Communicating with all customers in a private, secure manner is solved, you are ADA compliant, and your customers are happy.

It’s that simple.

You can invite other employees to join the chat, transfer calls to other departments, or escalate them to a manager, have pre-written “answering machine” messages for when calls come through after hours or on holidays, and stock responses to frequently asked questions that can be sent with the click of a button. Staff can click “unavailable” to take themselves out of the call queue when on breaks. Admins can monitor log-in history of employees and even watch chats happen as they are happening and jump into the chat themselves at any time. When calls are completed, you can automatically save the chats to keep a record or discard them. It’s up to you

We have you covered, and ensure all of your customers are heard.

The Full Policy

It’s simple. When one of the nearly 48 million who are deaf or hard of hearing call you, our special software then validates the call and instantly routes it to an agent. The call is private and secure with no middleman.

The Americans with Disabilities Act requires you to provide means of effective communication to those with hearing disabilities. NexTalk’s Access keeps you compliant with ADA requirements.

The ADA requires that title II entities (State and local governments) and title III entities (businesses and nonprofit organizations theat serve the public) communicate effectively with people who have commnunication disabilities. The goal is to ensure that communication with people with these disabilities is equally effective as communication with people without disabilities.

How it Works

As an inclusive, forward-thinking company, you want to ensure you are accessible to all customers. We have the technology that will allow you to do it.

There are 48 million Americans who are deaf or hard of hearing. These are important customers with real needs. You need to meet those needs by easily & securely communicating with them while remaining compliant with the Federal Americans with Disabilities Act.

Deaf and hard-of-hearing customers call you by simply entering your TTY Number into their TTY device. Our special software then validates that call to ensure that it is in fact someone who is deaf or hard of hearing, and not someone just trying to get through to a live person faster.

After validating that it is a TTY call. We route it to your company’s designated representative and a chatbox immediately connects your deaf or hard of hearing customer and your agents. The problem of ensuring inclusivity and communication with all of your clients is solved, you’re ADA compliant, your customers are happy, and you’re doing business. Plus, the call is private and secure with no middleman.
