What are AI Policies?

ai policies for customer support

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.

“Warranty Claim Policy” ticket type explained

In customer support, a “Warranty Claim Policy” ticket type refers to the process of managing requests from customers who wish to file a claim for a product under warranty. This involves verifying purchase details, confirming the validity of the warranty, and facilitating the resolution process, which may include repair, replacement, or refund of the product. It’s a critical aspect of customer support that ensures customers receive the promised after-sales service, thereby maintaining customer satisfaction and trust in the brand.

Which Platforms does this AI policy work on?

This AI policy works seamlessly on Shopify, Zendesk, and Kodif. Additionally, Kodif integrates with all other major platforms, ensuring a versatile and comprehensive support system for managing warranty claims across different e-commerce and customer service platforms.

When should I use this policy?

Use this policy when a customer requests to file a warranty claim for a product. This ensures that the process is handled efficiently, improving customer satisfaction and streamlining support operations.

Describe the Logic

  3. If the email address was not found, ask for a valid email address.
  4. If the email address is still not found, route it to an agent for further investigation.
  5. Display Recent Orders:
  6. Use @get_shopify_orders to retrieve the user’s recent orders.

  8. If the order was not found, route to an agent for further investigation.
  9. Check Order Status
  10. For the selected order, use @shopify_order_details to check the status of the order.
  11. Validate Warranty Eligibility:
  12. Check the order date and the product warranty terms (e.g., 1-year warranty).
  13. Use @check_warranty_eligibility to determine if the product is still under warranty.
  14. If the product is not eligible, use macro “Your product is no longer under warranty. Please let us know if there’s anything else we can assist you with.”
  15. Create a Support Ticket for the Warranty Claim:
  16. Ask the customer to describe the issue with the product.
  17. Gather order details, warranty eligibility confirmation, and instructions for the customer to send photos and additional documentation to a designated support email.
  18. Use macro “We’ve created a support ticket for your warranty claim. Please send photos of the defective product and proof of the issue to [support_email]. Our team will review your claim and get back to you within [X business days].”

If the chatbot supports attachments, request images or documents (e.g., purchase receipt, photos of the product, etc).
