Side by side

Product attributes first, then what the sources establish for each customer workflow, then the industries they place each agent in. Open any claim to see its source, the date it was checked, and how to request a correction. Two agents are rarely documented to the same depth, so read a difference between the two columns as a difference in the public record before reading it as a difference in the products.

What this agent was judged by

The independent evidence behind these states comes mainly from analysts and trade press.States rest on 1 independent source across analysts and trade press. This is not the same yardstick for every agent, and that asymmetry is a known limitation.

Workflow evidenceBilling

Illustrative scenario

I was charged twice for the same order. Can you refund the extra payment?

What to verify: Verify identity, inspect payment records, apply the refund policy, and confirm the payment-system result. If no authorized refund action is connected, hand off with the evidence.

Not established

No supporting source is recorded here. Validate it with the vendor; absence of evidence does not establish a missing capability.

External report

PolyAI's own handoff documentation names billing disputes as an example of a conversation the agent escalates to a human rather than resolving.

Workflow evidenceReturns

Illustrative scenario

I bought this 12 days ago and opened the box. Can I return it?

What to verify: Check the actual return window, product exclusions, and order record. A policy answer and an executed return are different capabilities.

Not established

No supporting source is recorded here. Validate it with the vendor; absence of evidence does not establish a missing capability.

Workflow evidenceProduct questions

Illustrative scenario

Does this adapter work with my exact laptop model?

What to verify: Use a current, approved compatibility source. Ask for the model when missing and distinguish documented compatibility from an assumption.

Vendor-documented

Knowledge AI requires a separate license, and the documentation does not publish file-size limits, maximum source counts or a language-support list for knowledge ingestion.

1 cited claim for product questions on NiCE Cognigy
Cognigy Knowledge AI is documented as a retrieval-augmented-generation knowledge search and management solution that ingests PDF files, Cognigy Text (CTXT), web pages and external systems via Knowledge Connectors so agents can answer from source documents rather than predefined intents.Vendor-reported

Vendor-documented

URL ingestion is documented as limited to one level below the starting URL and a maximum of ten embedded pages, and the Zendesk and Gladly knowledge syncs are marked beta. Those constrain one ingestion route rather than the capability itself, so they are recorded here rather than as a gap. No independent evidence of answer quality was found, so the verdict stays unknown.

I lost access to my email. Change the address on my account.

What to verify: Follow the approved identity-recovery process before accessing or changing account data. Escalate when identity cannot be verified.

Workflow evidenceComplaints

Illustrative scenario

I have contacted you three times and the problem is still unresolved.

What to verify: Recognize the repeat complaint, retain relevant history, and route it to the right team. Do not promise compensation outside the policy.

Not established

No supporting source is recorded here. Validate it with the vendor; absence of evidence does not establish a missing capability.

Caveat documented

PolyAI's handoff documentation names complaints, alongside billing disputes and out-of-scope requests, as the conversation types where the agent escalates to a human rather than resolving autonomously.
