The problem

During election time, it was not physically possible for VRK staff to deal with organizational issues and communicate with voters/campaigners simultaneously, leading to staff overload.

ROI as stated: the robot has already paid for itself.

During election time, together with other colleagues from VRK, we start performing administrative work from around 6 p.m. when the calls from voters stop. It is simply not physically possible to deal with the organisational issues of the elections and communicate with voters or political campaigners at the same time, despite the fact that both functions are very important. This is why the idea was born to deploy an intelligent AI chatbot, as it would allow voters to get the answers they need as quickly as possible.
