For decades, banks have forced customers into frustrating phone trees and rigid IVR systems—all in the name of efficiency. But what if automation could actually strengthen customer relationships instead of eroding them?

In this episode of Banking Transformed, Jim Marous speaks with Isaiah Granet, Co-Founder and CEO of Bland, to explore how voice AI is transforming banking relationships, modernizing call centers, and delivering measurable operational results.

They explore which workflows truly reduce call center costs, how to automate without sacrificing trust, what compliance guardrails must be in place before scaling voice AI, and what community and regional banks can realistically implement in the next 12 months.

If your institution wants to modernize call center operations, improve service quality, and increase conversion opportunities, this discussion outlines a practical, defensible path forward.
