Contact types and their setting

Where AI belongs in this sector, and where it does not.

Outage and service status

AI-Run

High volume, identical answers, time-critical. An AI agent clears the queue in the first minute of an outage; a person handles the customer whose business is down.

Prepaid top-up and plan questions

AI-Run

Transactional and repetitive. Handover on any billing dispute or a customer who has called twice.

Internet and IPTV technical support

AI-Assisted

Diagnosis needs a person; guided troubleshooting, device knowledge and auto-summaries beside them cut handle time without cutting the conversation short.

Retention, renewals and win-back

Human-Led

The save is a judgment call about a person. AI supplies the offer ladder and the account history; the agent reads the customer.

Outbound sales and activations

AI-Assisted

AI qualifies and books; trained sales consultants convert. The model we are standing up now for household telecom sales.

Directory assistance and service orders

AI-Run

Lookup and data entry, with a person for anything the system rejects.
