Customer Success

AI Ticket Triage Agent

Reads every incoming ticket the second it arrives, understands what it is about, attaches the right priority and tag, and routes it to the right person or queue. Stops urgent tickets sitting behind cosmetic ones.

What this agent does

The job description

  • Reads inbound tickets across email, chat, and form submissions
  • Categorises each ticket by topic (billing, technical, feature request, complaint, general)
  • Sets priority based on defined rules: stated urgency, customer tier, sentiment, business hours
  • Routes to the right queue or assignee
  • Tags with relevant labels so reporting is meaningful
  • Escalates anything matching defined sensitivity triggers (legal mention, regulatory term, public complaint, major customer)
  • Flags suspected spam without blocking legitimate first-time enquiries

"Sixty-eight tickets handled in the last 24 hours. Forty-one routed to general support, twelve to billing, eight to technical, four to feature requests, three escalated to you. The three escalations: one mentioned legal counsel, one is from your top-tier customer and the tone has shifted, one is a public complaint on Twitter that came in via the social inbox. All three have full context attached. Two suspected spam tickets I have flagged for review rather than auto-deleting; both look borderline."
