Ignite will build an intelligent, white-labeled, interactive digital conversation guide for Barksdale Federal Credit Union, to interact with members anywhere in self-serve mode. The service will guide members to services and solutions Barksdale provides, fulfill the unique needs of each member with personalized product recommendations and provide a digital-human interface.
