With 64% of service professionals reporting improved satisfaction through AI, the potential is clear.

Key Aspects of AI-Driven Customer Satisfaction

The Challenge
How Knots handles it
Automate repetitive tasks

Repetitive tasks such as ticket categorization and data entry can slow down agents and delay issue resolution. Automating these tasks

  • reduces manual effort,
  • speeds up responses,
  • and ensures consistent workflows

– all of which are critical to keeping customers happy and improving metrics such as Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT) and Average Handling Time (AHT).

Knots provides an advanced suite of tools to automate repetitive tasks, including

Anticipate user needs

 

Proactive support builds trust. By analyzing patterns and historical data, teams can address potential issues before they escalate, increasing both Net Promoter Scores and first contact resolution rates.

Sentiment analysis

Sentiment Analysis   

Sentiment Analysis uses artificial intelligence to detect emotional nuances in messages, enabling teams to anticipate customer needs and provide targeted, timely intervention before escalation occurs.

Provide around-the-clock support

Customers expect help whenever they need it, but maintaining a 24/7 support team can be costly. AI chatbots and self-service options fill this gap, ensuring immediate responses and improving accessibility without overburdening human agents. This improves metrics such as automated resolution rate (ARR) and customer effort score (CES).

Improving agent efficiency

While Knots will absolutely boost your ARR to unprecedented heights, we do not yet offer standalone chatbots for Zendesk – they are already available through the Chat Conversations API. But with GPT Sidebar and Editor, we help agents generate high-quality responses quickly, so they can efficiently handle queries even during peak hours.

Balancing efficiency with empathy

While speed is important, customers value empathy in their interactions. Balancing automation with human understanding ensures a truly satisfying support experience and contributes to higher customer satisfaction scores.

Enabling human-AI collaboration

Knots’ GPT Sidebar and GPT Editor augment human expertise, not replace it – because fast answers are important, but empathy drives satisfaction.

Maintaining trust and security

AI systems rely on customer data for personalization, making ethical use of AI and data privacy a top priority. Mishandling sensitive information can damage trust and lead to compliance violations.

Data protection is Key

Privacy isn’t optional. Knots ensures GDPR and HIPAA compliance, with no data stored on our servers.

With Ticket Export and Redact Tickets / Redact Attachments, we also provide applications to help you handle sensitive information.

Integrating AI into existing workflows

Adopting AI tools shouldn’t disrupt existing workflows. Seamless integration is essential to achieve efficiencies without introducing new challenges.

Optimizing Zendesk

New tools should enhance, not disrupt. Knots’ apps are specifically designed to easily integrate with Zendesk, ensuring quick onboarding and compatibility with existing systems.
