We were nervous about customers realising they were speaking to an agent. In practice they care that the thing got resolved, and when it can't be, the handoff is quick enough that nobody minds.

Leads get qualified while they are still interested rather than the following morning. That timing difference showed up in the pipeline inside the first month.
