Use case · Case deflection

The answer is already
in your case history.

Your best agents deflect cases because they remember how the last one was solved. Chip does the same thing, across every case ever resolved at your company, instantly, for every new case that comes in.

Without Chip

Engineering gets sent customer questions only they know the answer to.

With Chip

Support has the answer to every question ever asked, at their fingertips.

How it works

Two ways to deploy deflection.

Chip researches the resolution and posts an internal comment with the steps. Your agent acts on it. Chip never talks to the customer directly.
