Question 1

What is EVCalls?

Accepted Answer

EVCalls is an AI-powered call center platform built specifically for EV charging operators (CPOs). It provides 24/7 automated voice support for EV drivers, handles OCPP fault detection, multilingual troubleshooting, and seamless escalation to human agents — across North America (USA and Canada) and the GCC region (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar).

Question 2

How does an AI call center for EV charging work?

Accepted Answer

When a driver calls your support number, EVCalls' AI voice agent answers immediately, identifies the issue (charging session failure, payment error, connector fault), runs OCPP diagnostics in real time, and either resolves it on the call or escalates to a human with full context.

Question 3

Is EVCalls compatible with OCPP?

Accepted Answer

Yes. EVCalls is fully compatible with OCPP 1.6 and OCPP 2.0.1. Voice agents can query real-time charger status, read fault codes, remotely start/stop sessions, and trigger resets via your CPMS.

Question 4

What languages does EVCalls support?

Accepted Answer

EVCalls supports English, Arabic (Gulf and Levantine dialects), French, and Spanish.

Question 5

Does EVCalls work in the UAE and Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

Yes. EVCalls has dedicated GCC deployments covering Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, and Doha, with full Arabic Gulf-dialect support and PDPL-aligned data handling.

Question 6

What percentage of calls can EVCalls resolve without a human?

Accepted Answer

Typically 75–85% of inbound driver calls are fully autonomously resolved; the rest are escalated with full context.

Question 7

How much does EVCalls cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is based on call volume and network size. Most operators see a 50–60% reduction in support costs compared to staffed call centers.

Question 8

How quickly can EVCalls be deployed?

Accepted Answer

Standard mid-sized CPO deployments take 2–4 weeks; enterprise deployments with custom CPMS integration take 4–8 weeks.

Question 9

What is a 'truck roll' and how does EVCalls reduce them?

Accepted Answer

A truck roll is when a CPO dispatches a field technician to a charger. Each typically costs $300–$700. EVCalls reduces truck rolls by resolving most issues remotely on the support call — operators see 40–60% fewer unnecessary truck rolls within 90 days.

Question 10

How does EVCalls handle escalations to human agents?

Accepted Answer

When the AI determines an issue requires a human, it warm-transfers the call to your on-call team with the full transcript, OCPP diagnostic snapshot, charger ID, session ID, and driver context already attached.

Question 11

Is driver call data secure and compliant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-256 at rest, role-based access control, and data residency in North America and the GCC to satisfy PDPL UAE, PDPL KSA, and PIPEDA.

Question 12

Does EVCalls support roaming and eMSP scenarios?

Accepted Answer

Yes. EVCalls handles calls from drivers using roaming (eMSP) accounts on your network and routes via OCPI-connected workflows.

Question 13

What kind of analytics and reporting does EVCalls provide?

Accepted Answer

Real-time dashboards with call volume, AI resolution rate, average handle time, top fault categories, charger reliability trends, and per-site performance, with weekly auto-emailed reports and API export.

Question 14

Can EVCalls handle multiple brands or networks under one account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enterprise deployments support multi-tenant configurations with per-brand greetings, languages, escalation rules, and CPMS integration.

Question 15

What happens if EVCalls cannot reach our CPMS during a call?

Accepted Answer

EVCalls degrades gracefully: it answers the driver, gathers context, provides standard troubleshooting, and either logs a ticket or escalates per your fallback rules. CPMS connectivity is monitored with alerts.
