New embedded AI-powered CX transformation practice combines technology-enabled solutions, hands-on execution, and strategic advising to help companies move from reactive CX to proactive improvement

AUSTIN, Texas — September 15, 2026 — SupportNinja, a leading strategic outsourcing partner, today announced the launch of MomentumLabs, its embedded AI-powered CX transformation practice designed to help companies move beyond running day-to-day CX to continuously improving it. Working from inside the customer experience, seasoned CX practitioners combine NinjaAI, our human-in-the-loop (HITL) approach, hands-on execution, and strategic advising to uncover what’s holding CX back, develop solutions that address the underlying problems, and implement those solutions without disrupting day-to-day operations.

As companies grow and adopt new technologies, CX operations often become more complex. Broken workflows, unclear ownership, and disconnected systems create friction that adding more headcount alone can’t solve. The result is rising costs without meaningful improvement in the customer experience. Real progress starts by understanding what’s holding your CX back and where your systems need to evolve.

AI deployments often fail because they’re pointed at a single tool or ticket queue instead of the workflow around it. A chatbot bolted onto a broken process just moves the friction somewhere else. Because SupportNinja operates daily CX, MomentumLabs sees the entire system: the policies, the exceptions, and the handoffs between people and technology. That system-level view is what makes the technology work. HITL Operations allows it to scale, pairing AI with the judgment to catch what automation alone would miss so companies can automate more, not less, without losing control of the outcome.

MomentumLabs begins with the Signal Report, a custom, benchmarked, expert-level diagnostic that gives eligible SupportNinja clients a clear picture of where their customer experience stands today. The report identifies areas of friction and opportunity, including where AI, automation, and other technology can improve CX, then provides honest recommendations and a clear roadmap for what comes next. From there, MomentumLabs works to build, scale, and continuously improve CX.

The approach is already producing measurable results. For a global fitness brand, SupportNinja embedded an HITL QA layer to review AI chatbot responses, address failures in the highest-risk use cases, and retrain the model. Deflection jumped from 20% to 60%, bot CSAT climbed from 2.5 to 3.6, and the bot now resolves 92% of what it handles. It's a pattern that repeats across engagements: AI creates the capacity, and HITL is what lets a company trust it enough to keep scaling it.

For a benefits administrator facing high volumes of claims-status calls, SupportNinja identified the underlying friction and built proactive alerts across four stages of the claims journey, reducing status-check calls by 25%. For a fast-growing Medicare benefits platform, SupportNinja redesigned an inefficient ordering workflow rather than adding headcount, helping double quarterly order volume from 9,000 to 18,000 while reducing turnaround time from four to five days to six to 12 hours.

“For decades, the outsourcing industry has answered growth with more headcount,” said SupportNinja CEO Craig Crisler. “That model doesn’t solve the problems underneath the volume; MomentumLabs changes the equation. Because we’re already inside the operation, we can see what’s creating friction, redesign the work itself, and continuously improve CX as the business evolves.”

MomentumLabs is designed as an ongoing transformation practice rather than a one-time initiative. Working within existing CX operations allows SupportNinja to continuously identify gaps, apply technology where it creates meaningful impact, implement improvements, and refine the customer experience as business needs evolve.

“Once you understand what’s creating the problem, you can start looking at how the work should actually change,” said SupportNinja COO + CFO Jacob Moelter. “That might mean automating a repetitive process, redesigning a workflow, applying AI to the right use case, or changing how people and technology work together. MomentumLabs gives us a way to keep finding those opportunities, implement the right solutions, and see how they perform in the real operation. AI on its own doesn’t scale safely; it’s the human in the loop that catches what the model misses and lets us push automation further with confidence.”

The Signal Report is provided at no cost to eligible SupportNinja clients, with MomentumLabs continuing through hands-on transformation work based on each company’s needs and priorities.
