The business
A professional services firm with a growing customer base and a support load that scales faster than headcount. Customers expect fast, accurate answers across email, chat and portals.
The challenge
Support volume is growing faster than headcount. Customers wait, agents repeat themselves, and answers live in scattered docs nobody can find quickly.
The opportunity
Resolve the predictable instantly and escalate the complex with full context. Lower the load on humans without lowering the quality of the experience.
The system
A retrieval layer indexes help docs, past tickets and product knowledge. An AI agent drafts accurate, context-aware replies. It resolves what it can confidently handle and escalates the rest — with the conversation, the diagnosis and suggested next steps attached.
Architecture
Unified intake → knowledge retrieval (docs + past tickets) → AI response (drafted + reviewed) → auto-resolution or contextual escalation → human resolution with full summary.

Before → After
Manual handoffs. Duplicated data. Follow-up depends on memory.
One intelligent layer. Context preserved. Humans where judgement matters.
The human handoff
Anything sensitive, ambiguous or outside policy escalates to a human with a pre-built summary, the relevant knowledge, and a suggested resolution.
