Best decision we made last year was partnering with this CX team for our customer support, billing, and sales assistance. We were drowning in client emails and chasing invoices late at night instead of focusing on SEO strategy. Results have been incredible: client response times dropped from hours to under an hour, payment collection improved 60%, landing page conversions up 28%, and client retention increased 35%. They integrated seamlessly with our systems and scaled with us as we grew. Now we have more time to focus on delivering SEO results instead of being stuck in support tickets all day. If you're an agency juggling client support with campaign management, this team is a game-changer. "

We partnered with Hugo to evaluate LLM outputs as part of our model benchmarking pipeline. Hugo showed a strong understanding of LLM evaluation challenges and had a compelling human-in-the-loop approach. The team was professional and efficient from the get-go. They engaged critically with the complex tasks, flagged ambiguities, and iterated on their internal workflows based on our feedback. Despite our quality metrics being extremely difficult to meet, Hugo maintained high engagement and often went above and beyond to meet these standards. I came away confident in Hugo's capabilities and was impressed by the quality of thinking and execution they brought to the table. "

Hugo has been with us since day one. We partnered with them initially to set up our customer support structure, and their professionalism and dedication are truly unmatched. I've never worked with a support company, even U.S.-based ones, that shows this level of care, patience, and understanding with customers. Hugo feels like an extension of our company. They’re seamlessly integrated into our tools, communicating through Slack like any other teammate, which makes it feel like more than a typical vendor relationship. We have an incredibly flexible relationship. We can easily expand or scale back month-to-month with virtually no risk – that's absolutely essential for a fast-paced startup like ours. "
