Ongo Commences Testing Of Voice-Controlled Fueling With AI Assistant On Its App To Provide An Enhanced Fuelling Experience

AGS Transact Technologies Limited’s (BSE: 543451 & NSE: AGSTRA) digital payments platform, Ongo, today announced that it has commenced testing of voice-controlled fueling feature in its mobile application. Currently in the pilot phase, Ongo is leveraging the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to empower its users to seamlessly fuel their vehicles with a simple voice command.

With Ongo's AI Assistant integrated into the app's functional flow, users can initiate the fueling process remotely using a voice command, without the need for any physical interaction. The AI Assistant, powered by Natural Language Processing (NLP), comprehends user commands effortlessly, making the experience intuitive and hassle-free. The users can activate the voice assistant from the home screen on the app, state the vehicle and preset amount, and the AI-assistant will do the rest. 

The seamless integration of voice commands into the Ongo app represents a significant step forward in the evolution of AI-driven solutions. It not only simplifies the refueling process but also enhances overall user satisfaction and efficiency.

Earlier this year Ongo initiated a pilot test program for an open loop Contactless fuelling solution on its app, on-boarding more than 1000 fleet vehicles. The estimated market potential for fleet fuelling alone is Rs 1.6 lakh crore annually.

‘Ongo’ is a non-bank Prepaid Payment Instrument (PPI) issued by AGS Transact Technologies Limited’s wholly owned subsidiary India Transact Services Limited. The Ongo app can be downloaded from iOS and Playstore.
