Different markets, different maturity, different approach

But Altur and AgentCollect solve fundamentally different problems. Altur is voice-only and focused on consumer debt in LatAm. AgentCollect is multi-channel and focused on commercial debt in the US.

commercial collections require capabilities that voice-only platforms cannot deliver. When collecting from a company's AP department, you need attorney-backed email sequences (AgentCollect achievesformal demand letterss in attorney mode),attorney-mode formal demand letters, SMS campaigns, a payment portal for same-day settlement, and company intelligence gathered before the first contact.

AgentCollect. It is backed by Y Combinator S23. Each client gets a dedicated AI agent.
