60% of tickets resolved without a human — and happier customers

A growing services company had a support team of two. Every morning started with a backlog: password resets, invoice copies, "where is my order", the same twenty questions in a different order. Real problems — the ones worth two humans — waited behind them.

Triage first, magic never

We installed a support agent inside their existing ticketing, not next to it. It resolves the recurring cases end-to-end and drafts an answer for everything else, so the human starts from a proposal instead of a blank page. Anything ambiguous, angry or unusual is escalated untouched.

The team reviewed every automated answer for the first two weeks. That review period is not a formality — it is where the agent learns the house style, and where the team learns to trust it. Skip it and adoption dies quietly.

What it changed

• →60% of level-1 tickets resolved automatically
• →First response: under 30 seconds
• →Customer satisfaction: +28%
• →About €44K saved per year

The counterintuitive part: satisfaction went up, not down. Customers do not want a human — they want an answer. Reserve your humans for the conversations where they change the outcome.
