GPTBots.ai Partners with GP Batteries to Build a Global Intelligent Customer Service Network

SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aurora Mobile Limited (NASDAQ: JG) (“Aurora Mobile” or the “Company”), a leading provider of customer engagement and marketing technology services in China, today announced that its AI agent platform, GPTBots.ai, has entered into a strategic partnership with GP Batteries, a global leader in battery manufacturing. This collaboration sets a new benchmark for the digital transformation of traditional manufacturers by enabling smarter and more efficient customer service systems powered by AI.

The Customer Service Challenge for Battery Experts: Complex Products + Multilingual Markets

Headquartered in Hong Kong, GP Batteries was established in the 1960s and operates in over 50 countries and regions worldwide. Its broad range of batteries is widely used in household appliances, tools, and electronic devices. However, the complexity of its product lines and global operations has brought unprecedented challenges to customer service:

  • Consumers struggle to identify battery models and their applicable scenarios.
  • Customer service representatives must memorize vast amounts of knowledge, spending significant time on repetitive inquiries, which limits efficiency.
  • Multilingual and cross-regional service responses are slow, impacting customer satisfaction.

Partnering with GPTBots.ai: Creating a "Battery Advisor" and "Global Customer Service Ambassador"

GPTBots.ai provided a solution that integrates enterprise knowledge bases, AI Q&A, natural language processing, and multi-channel access. Through simple drag-and-drop configuration, the GP Batteries team quickly built an intelligent customer service system without any coding, offering key features such as battery model recommendations, FAQs, and location guidance.

Within just two months of its launch in the Netherlands, the system handled inquiries from over 1,000 sales channel users, reducing the workload of customer service representatives by more than half. The chatbot now serves as the first layer of customer support, with human agents only handling complex cases, significantly improving overall efficiency.

Over 50% Reduction in Operating Costs and Enhanced Service Experience

Since implementing GPTBots.ai, GP Batteries has achieved an automated response rate of over 50%, reduced operating costs by more than 50%, extended service hours to 24/7, and significantly improved customer satisfaction and response speed.

"We're not AI experts, but GPTBots.ai's user-friendly visual platform and nearly 24/7 support enabled us to quickly turn our ideas into a functional product," said the project lead. "From IT to marketing to senior management, GPTBots.ai’s professional support has enhanced our internal communication, alignment, and execution efficiency."

AI Empowering the Entire Value Chain: A New Paradigm for Digital Transformation in Manufacturing

GPTBots.ai's applications extend beyond customer service. GP Batteries is now collaborating with the GPTBots.ai team to expand AI capabilities across multiple critical areas of enterprise operations:

  • Sales Forecasting and Supply Chain Optimization: AI analyzes historical data and market trends to improve the accuracy of global sales forecasts, optimize supply chain management, and enhance factory capacity utilization.
  • Multilingual Training System for New Employees: Leveraging AI's multilingual Q&A capabilities, standardized training content is delivered to employees from different countries, significantly reducing communication and training costs.
  • Internal Process Automation: AI agents participate in order processing, channel management, and inventory scheduling, automating business workflows and improving overall operational efficiency.

"AI's multilingual capabilities have enabled our global team to achieve standardized training and services, drastically reducing communication costs," said the marketing head of GP Batteries.

GPTBots.ai's CEO added, "We are not just a tool but a long-term partner for enterprises in implementing AI. We are honored to work with GP Batteries to drive intelligent services and digital operations in the manufacturing industry."

Conclusion

From customer service automation to enterprise-wide intelligence, the collaboration between GP Batteries and GPTBots.ai showcases a new paradigm for digital transformation in manufacturing. GPTBots.ai will continue to empower more enterprises with its no-code AI solutions, enabling them to achieve intelligent operations with low barriers and high efficiency.
