Astrak was already building its own AI environment. Tugger got them there sooner.
Astrak Group knew the AI environment it wanted to build, and a ready-made Tugger 8x8 connector got them there months ahead of schedule.
Interactions, queues, agents, quality evaluations. Ask away.

Illustrative example
The Tugger connector for 8x8 syncs your 8x8 data into Tugger's secure environment, then makes it available to your AI assistant through MCP.
It syncs automatically, so answers stay up to date. Nothing to build. Nothing to maintain. No code.
Got more than 8x8? Connect Xero, HubSpot and 60+ other apps, and ask one question across the lot.
Want the full list? Connect 8x8 and ask your AI what's there.
If it's in 8x8, you can ask about it.
Type it the way you'd say it. Then keep going. Ask a follow-up, drill into the detail, or bring Xero into the same question.
“Which topics come up most in call transcripts this month?”
“Which wrap-up codes are rising this quarter?”
“Which customers who called to complain this month have unpaid invoices in Xero?”
“Which Zendesk tickets followed a call to our support queue?”
Ask across 8x8 and the rest of your business in one question.
MCP is how AI assistants connect to business data.
It stands for Model Context Protocol, and it's the standard Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini all use. Tugger's MCP is the secure route between your assistant and your 8x8 data. One connection covers every app you've connected to Tugger.
Ask anything.Break nothing.
Because your AI assistant should answer questions about 8x8, not make changes to it.
Tugger reads from 8x8. It never writes back. So nothing an assistant does can change, delete or create a record.
Only what you allow.
8x8 holds more than interactions. Customer phone numbers. Notes somebody typed three years ago. Government ID numbers. You decide, category by category, what an AI assistant gets to see.
Illustrative. Anything set to Hidden is withheld inside Tugger before the answer leaves.
Tell Claude what you want to see. It builds the dashboard from your 8x8 data, there and then.
Want it changed? Just say so.
Want it next month? Refresh it.
Same dashboard. Up-to-date numbers. No build project, no waiting on a developer.
Illustrative. Ask for a change and Claude rebuilds it.
