Customer service & analytics
Good service is measured by how quickly people get a usable answer — and how reliably complicated cases reach a human.
In plain language
This topic is about customer service. An assistant can answer outside business hours too. It helps with questions that come up again and again. It is meant to pass hard cases on to a person. The articles also show how to review the chats. This shows you which questions come in and which content is missing.

About this category
This category covers using assistants in everyday service: availability outside business hours, relief from recurring questions, escalation rules, coordination with phone and email, and a tone that matches the company. A second focus is analysis: which questions really come in, where conversations break off, which content is missing from the website. We show how to derive concrete improvements from that — for the assistant and for the content itself. We also cover team coordination: who reviews conversation logs, how often, and which changes usually follow from that.
Which enquiries can an assistant take on in your support?
The support assistant answers recurring questions from your knowledge base and hands over what a person should settle. Conversation analytics shows where answers are still missing.
