How do you hand a customer to a person with full context?

To hand a customer to a person with full context, connect your support desk. When a chat or email asks for a human, Maito opens a ticket with the order and conversation attached, assigns it by turn and sends a short acknowledgement. It posts a summary in Slack so nobody repeats themselves.

How it's done today

The customer explains their problem to a bot, then explains it again to a person.

What Maito does

  1. Spot the request for a person
  2. Package the order and chat history
  3. Open a ticket with an owner and deadline
  4. Tell the customer someone will reply

Example

Loop run: Chat in support desk · customer asked for a person

Maito APP 1:48 PM

Ticket T-3307 is open and assigned to Sam. Customer: Lucy Bell. Order: 10482, $186.40, placed Oct 12, shipped Oct 14. Asked: the bot twice about a late parcel, then wrote please let me talk to someone. Already tried: order tracking link, address check. Catch: tracking shows the parcel was delivered Oct 16 to a neighbor's address. The shipping address on the order is right, but the unit number is missing. She hasn't been told. I sent her an acknowledgement: a person will reply by 5:48 PM today. Source: support desk chat and the ecommerce order.

Sam 1:55 PM

@Maito draft the reply with the unit number point. I'll check before sending.

Draft is on T-3307. It asks her to check with the neighbor at the address on file, offers a replacement review once she replies, and promises no refund. Waiting for you.

What it won't do

Maito can't reach customers by phone or voice. It routes the case, and a person takes it from there.
