Short answer

How can I use my AI to route support chats?

Your AI reads incoming messages and uses the available tools to identify the chat and move it to the correct person. You get a sorted inbox without manual sorting. This setup handles the heavy lifting of triage so you can focus on answering questions.

Where every issue lands.

Automated triage outcomes

The AI sorts every incoming message into one of these buckets.

TECHNICAL

Engineering queue

The AI identifies bugs or system errors and moves the chat to your developers. This keeps technical issues away from general support.

BILLING

Finance department

Payment questions or subscription issues go straight to your billing team. This ensures sensitive data stays with the right people.

GENERAL

Standard support

Common questions that don't need a specialist land in the main support queue. Your general staff can pick these up immediately.

ESCALATED

Human intervention

If the AI detects high frustration or complex needs, it flags the chat for a human manager. This prevents angry customers from waiting too long.

The workflow

What your AI does when a chat arrives.

The AI acts as a digital dispatcher, reading the context and making decisions based on your instructions.

  1. Scan incoming messages

    The AI looks at the current queue to see what new conversations have started.

    list_chats

  2. Read conversation context

    The agent pulls the full history of a specific conversation to understand the user's intent.

    get_chat

  3. Determine the destination

    Based on the content, the AI decides which department or person is best suited to help.

    get_chat

  4. Assign the conversation

    The AI moves the chat to the chosen team member or department.

    assign_chat

FAQ

How the routing works

  • 01

    Can the AI reply to the customer directly?

    No. This Connector only handles reading and assigning chats. It does not have a tool to send messages to customers.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete a chat if it is spam?

    No. There is no tool available to delete or remove chats from the system.

  • 03

    How does the AI know which team to pick?

    The AI reads the chat content and uses its own reasoning to decide which department matches the user's request.

  • 04

    Does the AI change the chat history?

    No. The AI only reads the history and changes the assignment status. It cannot edit the messages themselves.

  • 05

    Can I manually override an assignment?

    Yes. The AI handles the initial routing, but you can always manually reassign a chat through your chat platform.
