Workflow Steps

Set up Zapier to monitor your support inbox and extract key information from incoming emails including sender details, subject, message content, and any attachments.

2

OpenAI GPT-4 API

Analyze sentiment and categorize intent

Send the email content to GPT-4 to determine customer sentiment (positive/neutral/negative), urgency level (low/medium/high), and support category (billing, technical, feature request, etc.).

Zendesk

Create prioritized support ticket

Automatically create a Zendesk ticket with the OpenAI analysis results, setting appropriate priority level, assigning to the right team based on category, and adding relevant tags for reporting.

4

OpenAI GPT-4 API

Generate response draft

Use GPT-4 to create a personalized response draft based on the customer's inquiry, company tone guidelines, and relevant knowledge base articles. Include this draft in the Zendesk ticket for agent review.
