boost.ai co-founder and chief commercial office Henry Iversen said: “Danish banks have typically been slow to adopt conversational AI compared to their neighbors in Norway and Sweden.

Santander Nordics product manager for open banking Oskar Karlsson said: “At Santander, we are eager to explore the opportunities of applying new technologies like AI.

“Our new boost.ai virtual agent, Sandrine, is part of this effort to future-proof our internal processes and provide scalable and excellent customer service.”
