Capabilities

What our AI does with Zendesk

Triage & routing: new tickets are automatically classified by subject, language and urgency and assigned to the right group or agent.
Draft responses: the AI proposes a reply based on previous tickets and your knowledge base—your agent checks and sends it.
Webhook triggers: ticket events (created, updated, status changed) directly start a workflow in your other systems.
Summarize & tag: long ticket threads are summarized and automatically given the right tags and custom fields.
Connection with your stack: enrich or update tickets with data from your CRM, order system or invoicing via one agent architecture.
Secure access via OAuth or API token with scoped permissions, auditable logging and human-in-the-loop on customer-facing actions.
In practice

Use cases

Smart ticket triage

Incoming tickets are automatically categorized by subject, language and priority and routed to the right group, so your team immediately works on the right things.

Prepare draft responses

Based on previous tickets and your help center, the agent proposes a draft reply. Your service agent checks, adjusts and sends—nothing goes out unseen.

Enrich tickets from your systems

On a new ticket, the agent pulls order, customer or contract data from your CRM or back office and puts it as context or in custom fields, so your team doesn't have to search.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about AI + Zendesk

Does this work with my Zendesk subscription?

The connection runs via the official REST API and webhooks, which are available on standard Zendesk Suite and Support plans. Some automation and trigger functions require a higher plan; we validate that upfront in a short technical check.

How do you connect to Zendesk—via an app or the API?

Standard via the official REST API and webhooks, with authentication via OAuth or an API token with scoped permissions. Where convenient, we add intermediate steps via n8n, Make or Zapier. We don't build a shadow copy of your helpdesk—Zendesk stays your source of truth.

Can the AI automatically send responses to customers?

Not by default. The agent prepares draft responses that your agent checks and sends. Only once you have built confidence on specific, simple ticket types can you choose to fully automate those—you set the boundary.

Does customer data stay GDPR-proof?

Yes. We minimize personal data, run on EU hosting and document processing in a processor agreement. You remain the data controller; we only process what is necessary for the agreed workflows.
