Dialogue
by Design.

Where human communication meets artificial intelligence.

Introduction

Language is generated. Communication is experienced.

AI can generate language. But generating language is not the same as communicating well.

As conversational AI becomes part of the way organisations interact with people, questions of tone, personality, clarity, pacing and trust become increasingly important.

Dialogue by Design brings a human communication perspective to that experience — examining how AI agents speak, respond and create conversations with the people who use them.

Maria combines clinical expertise in human communication with hands-on experience in AI innovation.

AI agent communication

Does your AI sound like you?

AI agents are becoming part of how organisations communicate with customers, patients, colleagues and the public.

An answer can be technically correct and still feel completely wrong.

Tone, pacing, language, personality and conversational flow all influence how an interaction feels.

An expert human communication perspective.

Dialogue by Design assesses how an agent sounds, responds and creates conversational experiences. It does not audit underlying technology or algorithms.
