OpenAI published a customer story about Ringg, a customer-service company, and said its agents ran on GPT-5.6. It said the system handled up to 65% of conversations on its own across voice, chat, WhatsApp and the web.
OpenAI also said Ringg cut its spending by about 90% after switching from GPT-4.1. The article said the story did not reveal the prompt design, retrieval layer or tool-calling setup behind the system.
The article said multilingual support was central to the deployment because one agent could be reused across languages rather than staffing separate teams for each market. It described customer service as a use case that can be measured through self-service resolution, handling time and cost per contact.
It said the remaining 35% of conversations still needed human escalation, and that open questions remained about which issues those were, how many languages Ringg covered and how the system behaved at peak volume.
