AI Assistants
Customer support automation
Planned support help that would answer common questions, sort requests, and route the rest to the right person.
The same support questions arrive again and again.
Common questions answered, requests triaged, and issues routed to the right person.
To be confirmed
Assists your team; it does not replace people entirely.
Overview
How it is designed to work
This service is planned and not available yet. It's designed for businesses where the same support questions arrive again and again by email, chat, or web form. When it launches, it would answer common questions from approved content, sort incoming requests by type and urgency, and send each one to the right person on your team.
It's meant to assist your team, not replace it. Complaints, refunds, billing disputes, and anything sensitive would go to a person by default. Vyybe has designed its own inbox assistant the same way: routine enquiries would get a reply, while anything about pricing, contracts, or complaints waits for a person.
What it looks like
A walkthrough of the intended experience
For example, here's how support could run for a small home-cleaning company once the service launches. This is an illustration, not a real client.
Requests arrive overnight
By morning there are a dozen messages: rescheduling requests, questions about what's included, a lost-item report, and one unhappy customer.
Routine questions get approved answers
Questions like "Do I need to be home?" get a reply drawn from your approved answers. Each reply says it was written with AI help and invites the customer to reply if they need a person.
Requests are sorted and labelled
Reschedules go to the scheduler. The lost-item report goes to the crew lead. Each message is tagged so nobody has to read everything first.
Sensitive messages wait for a person
The complaint and a refund request aren't answered automatically. They're flagged as needing you, with a suggested draft you can edit or ignore.
Urgent issues are escalated
A message about a possible safety issue matches your urgent rules, so it alerts the owner directly instead of waiting in a queue.
You see the whole picture
A simple view shows what was answered, what's waiting, and who owns each request. You can correct any answer and improve the approved content.
What it does
What it is designed to do
Answers common questions
It would reply to routine questions using only content you've approved, and say when it doesn't know.
Triage and labelling
It would sort incoming requests by topic and urgency, so the right person sees them first.
Routing to the right person
It would assign requests to the team member or queue you choose, based on rules you set.
Holds back sensitive topics
Complaints, refunds, billing, contracts, and similar topics would wait for a person, optionally with a draft reply.
Urgent escalation
Messages that match your urgent rules would alert a person directly.
Drafts for review
Where you prefer, it would prepare draft replies for your team to approve instead of sending them.
Limits on automatic replies
It would skip auto-replies, newsletters, and no-reply senders, and cap how often one person gets an automatic reply.
What it can do for you
Why it can help
Faster first responses
Routine questions could get a reply without waiting for someone to reach the inbox.
Less repeated typing
Your team would spend less time writing the same answers and more on issues that need judgement.
Fewer missed requests
Sorting and routing would make it clearer who owns each message.
Sensitive issues stay personal
Upset customers and money matters would still reach a person, which is usually what they want.
Answers that improve
Reviewing replies over time would show where your approved content needs work.
Who it's for
Is this a good fit?
- Businesses that receive many similar customer questions each week
- Small teams where support is shared between people with other jobs
- Owners who want consistent answers without writing each one by hand
- Businesses that need clear ownership of each request
- Probably not the right fit if you get only a few support messages a week, or if most of them need careful, individual judgement
How we work
From first conversation to a working setup
Discovery
We'd review where support requests arrive, the most common questions, and how your team handles them today.
Scoping in writing
We'd agree channels, approved answers, routing rules, topics that always go to a person, and what sends automatically versus as a draft. Scope and price are confirmed in writing before work starts.
Setup
We'd connect to your inbox, chat, or forms where practical, load the approved content, and set up the routing.
Supervised trial
We'd typically start in draft-only mode, so your team approves every reply until you're confident in it.
Launch and ongoing review
After switching on any automatic replies, you'd review samples regularly and we'd update content and rules within the agreed scope.

FAQ
Questions owners ask
Is this available now?
No. Customer support automation is planned and not yet offered. We're glad to hear what you need, and we'll be honest about timing. We don't give launch dates.
Will it replace my support staff?
No. It's designed to handle routine questions and sorting so your team can focus on the conversations that need a person.
What happens if it doesn't know the answer?
It wouldn't guess. The message would go to the right person, with a note that no approved answer matched.
Can I approve replies before they're sent?
Yes. Draft-only mode would let your team approve every reply. Many businesses would likely stay there for some topics permanently.
Which channels can it work with?
Email, website chat, and web forms are the most likely starting points. Other channels depend on your tools and their permissions, and would be confirmed during scoping.
