Hand off to a person with full context
When a customer asks for a human, the case moves to a person with the history attached and nobody repeats themselves.

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
- Spot the request for a person
- Package the order and chat history
- Open a ticket with an owner and deadline
- Tell the customer someone will reply
Example
Loop run: Chat in support desk · customer asked for a person
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.
@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.
