Customer service automation

Resolve routine enquiries automatically, draft responses for agents, and route the complex cases to the right person.

  1. Step 1

    The problem

    Contact volumes grow faster than teams. Agents answer the same questions repeatedly, average handling time is dominated by looking things up, and customers wait.

  2. Step 2

    The AI opportunity

    Tiered automation: classify and route every enquiry, fully resolve the genuinely routine ones, and give agents drafted responses with the relevant account and policy context for the rest.

  3. Step 3

    Our approach

    1. 1.Analyse historical contacts to find the routine, high-volume categories
    2. 2.Start with agent assist, which carries less risk than customer-facing automation
    3. 3.Add automated resolution only for categories where accuracy is proven
    4. 4.Keep a clear path to a human at every step
  4. Step 4

    Expected business outcome

    • Lower handling time on routine contacts
    • More consistent answers
    • Agents focused on complex, higher-value conversations

    Outcome types are described without figures. Numbers come from your baseline and business case, not from a template.

  5. Step 5

    How it is measured

    • Containment rate by category
    • Average handling time
    • Customer satisfaction on automated versus assisted contacts
    • Escalation and reopen rates
