Escalate high-value support tickets to Jira and alert Slack

Automatically flags your highest-value customers in HubSpot, creates a tracked Jira ticket, and alerts Slack if nobody responds in time.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; a person is alerted when a step fails.

The problem it solves

When a VIP customer opens a support ticket, you need someone on it fast, but tickets from your biggest accounts can get lost in the same queue as everything else. Support agents don't always know which customers are worth escalating, and by the time someone notices a stalled ticket, the customer is already frustrated.

Who it fits

Customer support or customer success teams who manage a mix of high-value accounts and everyday tickets.

How it works

  1. A new support ticket comes in through HubSpot
  2. The system checks the customer's account value and scans the ticket for warning words like refund or cancel
  3. High-risk tickets get a tracked task created in Jira with full context attached
  4. Slack posts an alert to the support channel right away
  5. If the ticket sits untouched for 15 minutes, Slack sends a second, more urgent alert
What you get

High value accounts that never slip through the cracks

Your highest value customers get flagged, tracked, and escalated automatically so nothing urgent sits unnoticed in the queue.

What you get

A tracked Jira ticket and a timely Slack alert for every ticket that matters.

What you need

A HubSpot account, a Jira Software Cloud account, and a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
