AI Builders Club – Club Meeting Minutes | Ep. 7: Goodbye Manual Triage, Hello AI Router
Topic: Can AI route every support request to the right human (or bot) without missing a beat?
Meeting Agenda: Reroute your support backlog with AI
This week, Chase and Aaron answer a universal cry for help—literally. Customer support inboxes are a swamp of password resets, bug reports, and feature suggestions. Somebody has to read them all… or maybe not?
In this session, we covered:
- Why tools like Zendesk, Freshdesk, and Intercom still rely on brittle, rule-based flows
- How a Support Router flow could live inside your help desk or act as a real-time API triage layer
- Key inputs: message content, user history, agent skills, urgency, billing data
- Key outputs: instant routing decisions, tags, notes, and auto-responses
- The stack: GPT-4o or Claude, LangChain Router, Pinecone, help desk APIs
- Where AI shines (zero fatigue, 24/7 sorting) vs. where humans win (tone, trust, judgment)
Club Takeaway: Support shouldn’t start with a mystery. With AI as the first responder, the right person sees the right ticket—instantly. That means faster help and less burnout.
Adjourned with: “Routing isn’t busywork—it’s the start of solving.”
See you at the next meeting.
