Sinch Unveils New Survey on the Future of Customer Communication

To celebrate this important milestone in human communication, Sinch commissioned a survey in North America to explore the future of customer engagement. The survey findings offer valuable insights, revealing that while rich, app-like experiences on platforms such as RCS, WhatsApp, and WeChat are already common in other parts of the world, the U.S. market lags behind in adopting these interactive messaging capabilities. However, this gap presents an exciting opportunity for innovation, allowing U.S. brands to leap forward and enhance customer engagement through advanced technologies. 

As the survey indicates, the shift from traditional communication methods to AI-powered, multimedia-rich experiences is accelerating. This evolution is critical, especially as brands prepare for high-stakes shopping events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, where seamless, interactive engagement will be key to meeting growing consumer expectations. 

Key Survey Insights: 

RCS is poised to enhance mobile messaging: 

Younger generations embrace AI chatbots for shopping: 

AI-driven communication is gaining momentum: 

Customer service remains a critical differentiator: 

"Our survey confirms what we've long anticipated: AI and RCS are revolutionizing customer communication," said Sean O'Neal, Chief Product Officer at Sinch. "As businesses seek to create more meaningful, dynamic, and personalized experiences, Sinch's advanced solutions are empowering brands to engage with their audiences in more effective and creative ways." 

The invention of the telephone by Antonio Meucci in 1849 laid the foundation for modern communication, later enhanced, and popularized by Alexander Graham Bell. Just as Meucci's groundbreaking work transformed human connection 175 years ago, the rise of AI and RCS is now revolutionizing how brands engage with customers, offering richer, more interactive, and personalized experiences. Unlocking the full potential of RCS will require widespread adoption across mobile carriers, operating systems, businesses, and consumers.  

Sinch is uniquely positioned to lead this transformation, leveraging our strong carrier relationships, longstanding partnerships with companies like Google, and our proven ability to drive industry change.

With our robust product suite—including solutions like RCS Upscale and Conversation API—we simplify access to RCS, making it easier for businesses to adopt and integrate, further accelerating the shift toward this new communication standard.  

As RCS adoption grows, next year's Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping season is set to be redefined by dynamic, real-time customer interactions. Leading this evolution, Sinch empowers brands with innovative tools to fully harness these technologies and elevate customer engagement.
