What are AI Policies?

At Kodif, we’re excited to announce the launch of Policies—a powerful, dynamic solution designed to revolutionize the way CX managers handle customer support. Unlike traditional flows, which are rigid and complex, Policies empower non-technical users to create and manage customer interactions with ease. Written in natural language, Policies make it simple to define and refine customer experiences without needing to rely on complicated flowcharts or scripting. This approach is not only user-friendly but also self-serve, enabling CX teams to quickly translate existing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) into automation, saving valuable time and resources.

The flexibility of Kodif Policies ensures that businesses can offer personalized, context-driven support while continuously improving customer experiences. With Policies, you can experiment with different strategies to optimize outcomes such as CSAT, revenue, and retention—all without the need to rebuild complex workflows. Whether it’s automating routine interactions or testing new approaches for high-stakes scenarios, Policies provide a scalable, adaptable solution that aligns with your business goals. While flows still have their place in sensitive, high-risk situations, Policies offer an agile alternative that helps businesses innovate faster and deliver exceptional, tailored experiences at scale.

“Restart subscription” ticket type explained

In customer support, a “Restart subscription” ticket is a request from a customer who wants to reactivate a previously canceled or paused subscription. Customers might choose to restart their subscriptions due to changes in their preferences, promotional offers, or enhanced features of the service. Handling these requests efficiently is crucial for retaining customers and boosting customer satisfaction. It involves confirming the customer’s intent, updating account details, and possibly offering incentives to maintain the subscription. Such tickets are vital for subscription-based businesses as they provide an opportunity to reinforce customer loyalty and engagement.

When should I use this policy?

This policy is ideal for use when customers express a desire to cancel orders, and the situation necessitates a retention step. It provides a structured approach to offering alternatives to cancellation, such as discounts, shipping upgrades, product swaps, or future discounts, thereby enhancing customer retention efforts.

Policy logic

1. Customer wants to proceed with the cancellation in the #Single_order_cancellation_policy – Provide Cancellation Alternatives.
2. Once the order is selected, offer retention options to prevent cancellation:
   • Discount Offer: Use @set_discount_to_order to offer a discount (e.g., 10% or 15%) on the current order if the user chooses to retain it.
   • Shipping Upgrade: Offer an expedited shipping upgrade free of charge to incentivize the user to keep their order.
   • Product Swap: Offer the option to swap the item for another product of the same or higher value at no extra cost.
   • Future Discount: Offer a discount for a future purchase, e.g., a 20% coupon for their next order, if they keep the current order.
3. Confirm Retention Decision
4. Ask the user if they are interested in one of the retention options.
5. If the user accepts:
   • Apply the agreed-upon retention offer using the relevant tools (@set_discount_to_order, @upgrade_shipping, or other applicable retention tools).
   • Inform the user that the order has been updated, and provide them with the relevant details (e.g., new discount, shipping upgrade, etc.).
   • Use @send_async_message(message: str) to notify the user that their order has been successfully updated with the retention offer.
   • Smartrr will also send a confirmation email detailing the order update.
6. If the user declines:
   • Proceed with the order cancellation as described in the #Single_order_cancellation_policy.
7. Post-Retention Follow-up:
8. Thank the user for choosing to keep their order and reiterate any benefits or bonuses (e.g., a future discount).
9. Ensure the user receives a follow-up message confirming that their retention offer has been applied.
10. Escalation:
11. If the user has any additional concerns or issues regarding the retention offer, route the case to an agent for further assistance.
12. In cases where the user insists on canceling despite the retention offers, proceed with cancellation as outlined in the cancellation policy.
