The problem it solves

You don't want customer issues to slip through the cracks because someone forgot to log them in your help desk. Manually creating tickets for every request takes time your support team doesn't have.

Who it fits

Support teams using Zendesk who want incoming issues logged consistently without manual entry.

How it works

  1. A new support request comes in
  2. The automation gathers the relevant details
  3. It creates a new ticket in Zendesk with that information
  4. Your support team sees the ticket ready to work in their queue
What you get

Requests logged and waiting in your team's queue

Every incoming support request lands in your Zendesk queue already organized and ready for your team to work.

What you get

A new, fully detailed ticket in your Zendesk queue.

What you need

A Zendesk account with API access.

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.
