    Overview

    AI-Only Escalation is an advanced feature designed to optimize how your chatbots handle human escalation requests. By leveraging AI-powered intent detection, this feature moves beyond traditional static keyword matching systems to truly understand customer requests. This ensures that chatbots accurately identify when a conversation requires human intervention, enhancing customer satisfaction and streamlining the support process.
    Why It Matters

    In traditional escalation systems, chatbots rely heavily on keyword matching to trigger handoffs to human agents. This method often results in false positives, where keywords are mentioned but do not indicate a genuine need for human assistance. AI-Only Escalation mitigates this issue by analyzing the entire context of the conversation, allowing for smarter and more efficient handoff processes.

    How It Works

    How It Works

    The AI-Only Escalation feature operates by examining the context of the conversation rather than focusing solely on specific keywords. This contextual awareness allows the chatbot to:
    • Smarter Handoff Detection: By understanding the conversation context, the bot can detect genuine requests for human assistance, ensuring accurate escalations.

    • No More False Positives: The AI model reduces unnecessary escalations by discerning the intent behind keywords, preventing handoffs in situations where human intervention isn't needed.

    • Full Context Preserved: During handoffs, the bot retains the entire conversation's context, providing human agents with all necessary information to assist effectively.

    • Continuous Learning: The AI system continuously learns from interactions, improving its ability to recognize escalation triggers over time.
