How AI chatbots can handle customer enquiries

Give an assistant a clear role, reliable information and a human handoff.

Set the boundaries

Choose the questions the assistant should answer and the details it should collect. Tell customers they are speaking to an automated assistant.

Use approved information

Keep service details, opening hours and policies current. The assistant should acknowledge missing information and route pricing or availability questions to the right process.

Review the handoff

Make it easy to reach a person and carry useful context into the conversation. Test incomplete questions and review responses before expanding the assistant’s role.
