Medtronic runs voice-first AI agents built with Teneo.ai for device support, sales enablement, and internal HR/IT/legal help across 135 countries. Teneo reports $9-10 million saved by the Cardiovascular group, cost per contact cut from $26 to below $12, and 4-5 hours per week saved for sales reps.
Reported outcomes
Outcomes are reported exactly as stated by the source; we have not independently audited them.
How it works
- 13 active agents: 5 internal (HR, IT, legal) and 8 external (patients, providers, distributors, sales).
- Device troubleshooting, error-code resolution, multilingual technical support.
- Sales enablement with instant documentation access.
Risks & compliance
- Regulated device support; agents must not replace clinical decision-making
- Vendor-published webinar summary; not independently audited
Healthcare cases cover operational and commercial workflows. Nothing here is medical advice or a claim about a device's or drug's efficacy.
Casefile: MedTech angle
Reps reclaiming 4-5 hours a week via instant documentation access is a concrete benchmark for device sales teams.
