Process

How it works

A simple 3-step system that non-technical users can follow.

Step 01

Ingest & Normalize

Receives tickets from IMAP and webhook sources, cleans HTML content, and normalizes fields such as Ticket ID, user email, message, timestamp, and source channel.

Step 02

Analyze & Route

Runs language detection and translation, then classifies sentiment, urgency, and category to decide whether to auto-reply or escalate. Generates a short summary and churn risk score.

Step 03

Act & Update CRM

If auto-reply, drafts and sends a reply; if escalation, forwards with full context. Updates CRM fields (priority, category, sentiment, churn risk, draft reply) and logs metrics to observability endpoints.


Example

Example workflow

A realistic scenario illustrating timing and outcomes.

Scenario: A French-speaking customer reports a billing discrepancy via the ticket webhook at 10:05 AM. The AI Agent translates to English, classifies the issue as Billing with high urgency, and generates a draft reply. It updates the CRM with Priority: High, Category: Billing, Sentiment: Negative, Churn risk: 0.28, and the draft reply. The auto-reply is sent within 2 minutes, and the ticket is logged with the proper routing decision for escalation if needed.

FAQ

FAQ

Answers to common practical concerns.

Tickets are ingested and analyzed in seconds after receipt. Auto-replies can be generated within 1–2 minutes, and escalations are triggered immediately for high-priority tickets. The system continuously streams observability data so operators know where each ticket stands. Performance can vary with payload complexity or translation length, but typical end-to-end routing occurs in under a few minutes. You can tune thresholds to align with your SLAs.

Yes. The AI Agent detects the original language and translates to English when needed, returning a confidence score for the translation. Non-English tickets are processed with the same classification and routing logic as English tickets. You can customize translation prompts and fallback behavior. Data privacy remains intact during translation, with secure API calls and scope-limited processing.

Absolutely. The AI Agent connects via your CRM/Helpdesk API, mapping ticket fields (priority, category, sentiment, churn risk) and automatically updating draft replies. It supports real-time or batched updates and can align with your existing ticket workflows. You control authentication, endpoints, and field mappings. Integrations can be tested in a sandbox before production.

Data is transmitted securely and stored only as configured by your integrations. The agent uses encryption in transit and at rest, with access controlled by API credentials. Translation and analysis prompts are designed to minimize unnecessary data retention, and you can opt out of storing transcripts. If required, you can enable data masking and restrict sensitive fields in the CRM.

Yes. The ingestion step cleans HTML content and processes attachments when supported by the source. The AI agent extracts the main message while preserving context, and ensures that all relevant data is mapped into standardized ticket fields. Attachments are logged as metadata and, if configured, securely scanned. Privacy controls remain in effect for any sensitive materials.

You can customize prompts, translation behavior, classification categories, and routing thresholds. The agent supports rule-based overrides for specific ticket types and can adapt to evolving business rules. You can adjust language, tone, and template responses to fit your brand. All changes are testable in a staging environment before deployment.

The AI Agent is designed for cloud-based usage with API access to your models and CRMs. While it does not run offline in a typical setup, you can operate behind secure gateways in certain architectures. For on-prem deployments, you would need equivalent self-hosted models and compliance controls. We can help design a compliant, private deployment if required.
