Helping players stay on target. Fast acting, reliable, and well informed support representatives keep your players playing. Count on US.

The Angler hero

Fast. Human. Always On.

Great games live or die by how players feel once they hit “Play”.
We make sure every interaction builds trust, loyalty, and long-term engagement.

 

Universally Speaking goes beyond answering tickets. We design and run complete player support ecosystems, bringing player conversations from social media, Steam, Discord, and community platforms straight into your CRM as structured, actionable support tickets. Wherever players speak, we listen, capture, and respond seamlessly.

 

Built by gamers and powered by data, we select and configure the right CRM for you, hire top-tier talent, and create custom reporting and data pipelines tailored to your needs. From day-one launch chaos to long-term live operations, we turn player interactions into insight, clarity, and better player experiences.

A Helping Hand

Customer Support

We handle player enquiries with empathy, speed, and deep game knowledge. Our agents resolve issues, not just tickets. We offer multichannel support (email, chat, ticketing systems), across all ticket types (account, billing, technical, and gameplay issues), whenever you need us (live operations, launches, peaks, and crisis support). With multilingual teams trained on your game and tools, every response is clear, on-brand, and player-friendly. No scripts. No robotic replies.

Community Management & Moderation

Your community is an extension of your game. We help it thrive through proactive moderation across forums, Discord, and social platforms, enforcing community guidelines with consistency and care. We've proven time and again we can de-escalate, handle conflict, and protect players, creating direct feedback loops to dev, QA, and community teams. We keep conversations constructive, inclusive, and aligned with your values.

Social Media & Content Management

Players expect brands to show up and engage, not broadcast. Through social media monitoring and player interaction, using community responses aligned with tone and brand voice we help build those connections. In close co-ordination with marketing and community leads, we can provide specific content support during launches, updates, and live events. We help you stay visible, responsive, and authentic across every channel.

Sentiment Analysis & Analytics

Every ticket, post, and comment tells a story. We turn that noise into clarity. Real-time sentiment tracking across support and community channels, paired with trend analysis and recurring issue detection allows you to stay on top of your communties views, reactions and needs. We turn analysis into actionable reports for production, QA, and live ops teams, providing data-driven recommendations to improve player experience. You don’t just hear your players. You understand them.

Community By The Numbers

Our performance is driven by the metrics that matter most to customer experience. We monitor Queue Wait Time (QWT) to ensure rapid access to support, track Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) and analyze the data behind every rating to understand and address the root causes of dissatisfaction. We measure our Quality to maintain consistently high standards in every interaction, and optimize Resolution Time so your issues are handled quickly and completely.

Be Present. Be Relevant. Be Heard.

Through our data driven approach, we set targets that increase over time. We are always refining our processes to ensure robustness, and invest in ongoing training to raise standards, deliver consistent results, and create an ever-improving support experience.

what our clients have to say

We’ve worked with other vendors before, but the difference here was the level of ownership they showed. Bugs weren’t just logged—they came with context, insight, and often a solution. It felt less like outsourcing and more like having a trusted squad plugged right into our pipeline.
