  • Intent and Topic Detection: Classifies cases automatically to suggest next best actions.
  • Generative Reply Drafting: Creates recommended responses using fine-tuned LLMs.
  • Analytics & Insights: Tracks resolution time, deflection rate, and knowledge utilization.
  • Integrations: Works with Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud, Freshdesk, and Slack.
