Customer support & comms

Support assistant

Resolves common questions end to end, and hands off to a person with full context when needed.


A front-line assistant that clears the routine questions filling your support queue, and escalates the rest to a person with the full thread in hand.

What it does

  • Answers common questions end to end, drawing on your help docs and policies
  • Detects when a request needs a human and hands it off with full context
  • Works across the channels you use — web chat, email, or messaging
  • Keeps a consistent tone and stays within the rules you set

Common requests it handles

  • How do I reset my password or change my plan?
  • What's your refund or shipping policy?
  • Why isn't my account working?

Recommended models

An open model like Llama or Qwen handles support Q&A well and keeps customer data in-house; Gemma is a solid lightweight default for self-hosted setups. For high-stakes phrasing or many languages at once, a frontier API model (GPT or Claude) adds headroom.

Tuning tips

  • Feed it your real help docs and past tickets so answers match your policies
  • Set a clear escalation rule for refunds, complaints, and anything account-sensitive
  • Start in suggest-to-agent mode, then enable auto-resolve once you trust it

What we need from you

  • Your FAQs, help docs, or past tickets
  • Your tone and any do/don't rules
