Call Center Guys inks AI deal with Syntheia to drive $10M revenue and 30% efficiency gains

Call Center Guys inks multimillion-dollar AI deal with Syntheia

ONTARIO and VAUGHAN, CANADA - Call Center Guys Inc. has amended its acquisition agreement with Syntheia to accelerate AI-enabled customer service and operational efficiency. The move pairs an experienced outsourced contact center with a conversational AI provider to drive immediate revenue and set a clearer path to scalable automation.

The deal at a glance

• Transaction: Syntheia will acquire assets from Call Center Guys for CAD $750,000 (US$537,018.75) and issue 10,000,000 common shares, subject to an 18-month escrow.
• Revenue impact: Call Center Guys expects over $10 million in immediate revenue and a projected annual EBITDA of $2.2 million.
• Efficiency target: Syntheia projects about 30% cost savings with its conversational AI while improving customer experience.

Why it matters for support leaders

This partnership signals a practical path to blended agent/AI operations. Expect deeper AI use in triage, routing, self-service, and agent assist-especially for companies with fluctuating volumes where staffing swings are costly.

For teams, the takeaway is simple: the benchmark for speed, accuracy, and empathy is rising. AI that deflects routine tickets and supports agents in-session will become table stakes.

What could change on your floor

• Smarter front doors: Conversational AI handles FAQs, authentication, and intake before handing off complex issues.
• Agent assist: Real-time summaries, suggested responses, and knowledge surfacing reduce handle time and after-call work.
• Quality and compliance: Automated scoring and coaching across 100% of interactions-not just samples.
• WFM impact: Lower variability and tighter forecasting as AI absorbs peaks and routine load.

According to Syntheia CEO Tony Di Benedetto, the combined stack is expected to deliver roughly 30% savings while improving the customer experience. That aligns with broader industry gains from conversational AI in contact centers.

Action plan for the next 90 days

• Map automation candidates: Pull 90 days of tickets/chats. Tag top intents by volume, AHT, and resolution outcome. Prioritize 3-5 high-volume, low-variance use cases.
• Pilot in one queue: Launch a bot or agent-assist pilot with tight guardrails. Track AHT, FCR, CSAT, containment rate, and deflection accuracy.
• Upgrade your knowledge base: Clean articles, add clear decision trees, and standardize macros so AI and agents pull the same source of truth.
• Define escalation rules: Set thresholds for sentiment, security, and complexity. Make human handoffs fast and context-rich.
• Upskill your team: Train agents on AI co-pilot workflows, prompt patterns, and conversation control. See curated options by role at Complete AI Training.

Risks to watch

• Accuracy drift: Automations can degrade without feedback loops. Review transcripts and retrain models regularly.
• Privacy and compliance: Lock down PII handling and retention. Audit vendor data use and model training policies.
• Agent morale: Communicate clearly: AI reduces repetitive work; agents focus on nuanced conversations. Tie adoption to coaching and incentives.

The bigger signal for 2025

Syntheia plans a broader North American rollout across call center acquisitions, aiming for revenue growth, savings, and higher customer satisfaction. For support leaders, the edge goes to teams that operationalize conversational AI with measurable KPIs, strong governance, and disciplined change management.

If fluctuating volumes are your norm, this is a practical model to study: automate the predictable, assist the complex, and reinvest gains into service quality.
