Smart Communications, a technology leader in regulated industries, announced its acquisition of Pendula, a provider of intelligent orchestration and digital delivery solutions. Pendula’s platform enhances customer engagement by enabling personalized, cross-channel interactions.
With rising expectations for fast and seamless communication across platforms, many organizations rely on fragmented systems that negatively impact customer satisfaction and trust. Smart Communications’ addition of Pendula expands its Conversation Cloud with advanced orchestration and AI-driven capabilities, enhancing automation, completion rates, and personalization across channels such as SMS, email, WhatsApp, and RCS.
Pendula’s features include analytics, AI decisioning, configurable agents, and intelligent failover—ensuring messages reach customers through alternate channels if needed. Integration with leading enterprise tools such as Salesforce and AWS further streamlines engagement.
This acquisition bolsters Smart Communications’ service to highly regulated sectors by enhancing compliance, operational efficiency, and secure, connected conversations across all digital channels.
