Where this role fits
Helps support teams handle standard enquiries consistently and focus on complex cases.
Core responsibilities

- Prepare answers from approved sources

Representative workflow
Receives an enquiry, retrieves an answer from approved knowledge, checks handling rules, and hands off when human support is required.
Channels and integrations
Expected operational outcomes
- More consistent answers to standard questions
- Clearer context when complex cases are escalated
This agent does not replace customer service. It is a bounded role for standard information requests with human ownership of judgement calls.
Problems it handles
- Repeated handling of the same questions with inconsistent answers
- Manual classification of enquiry topics
- Lost context during escalation
Boundaries and control
The agent relies on approved sources and does not decide refunds, compensation, legal positions, or security matters.
Human handoff
When confidence is low or an exception applies, the enquiry, source used, and concise summary are passed to a support owner.
Questions before an audit
Does the agent close every enquiry?
No. Disputes, complaints, payments, security matters, and cases requiring discretion are handed to human support.
Where do answers come from?
Only approved knowledge sources and agreed operating rules are used.
What happens when a new topic appears?
If no reliable answer is available, the agent does not guess and routes the enquiry with context.
