How AI capabilities work together

AI for support isn't a single tool — it's a coordinated set of capabilities. Triage classifies and routes tickets. Reply drafts responses. QA scores conversations. Sentiment flags escalation risk. Each capability is modular, but they compound when combined.

  • Shared domain models (Ticket, Customer, Agent)
  • Consistent configuration across capabilities
  • Provider-agnostic AI — swap models freely
  • API-first design for helpdesk integration
