Ticket Triage + Routing

Every inbound ticket categorized, prioritized, and routed to the right agent in under 60 seconds — no more queue mosh pit.

The problem

Most SMB and mid-market support orgs let humans do the cheapest work in the building: reading every ticket, guessing the category, picking a priority, and assigning it to whoever is online. The result is a 3-6 hour FRT on tickets that should be 15 minutes, P0 outages buried under password resets, and skill-mismatched assignments that crater AHT and CSAT. A triage agent that classifies (billing / bug / feature / account / how-to), scores priority (P0/P1/P2 by ARR + SLA + sentiment), applies tags + macros, and assigns by skill + load + queue depth turns the front door into a sorting algorithm instead of a bottleneck.

Typical leak: FRT compresses 4hr → 35min on a typical SMB Zendesk; 30-45% of tickets get auto-deflected via macro + KB at intake; mis-routes drop from ~25% to <5%

First-response time + mis-route rate
