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.

“WISMO” Ticket Type Explained

“WISMO,” an acronym for “Where Is My Order?”, represents a category of customer support inquiries focused on tracking and understanding the status of orders. These inquiries are particularly prevalent in e-commerce, where customers frequently seek updates on their purchases. Efficient handling of WISMO tickets is crucial as it directly impacts customer satisfaction and loyalty. By automating responses to these inquiries, companies can reduce response times, minimize customer anxiety, and free up customer service teams to handle more complex issues.

Which Platforms Does This AI Policy Work On?

This AI policy is designed to work on ShipMonk, Zendesk, and Kodif. Moreover, Kodif integrates seamlessly with all other major platforms, ensuring a comprehensive solution for managing customer support across various systems.

When Should I Use This Policy?

This policy should be employed whenever customers inquire about the status of their orders. The automated solution efficiently handles these inquiries, alleviating pressure on support teams and improving customer experience.

Policy Logic

The logic for handling WISMO inquiries involves a series of automated steps to ensure accurate and timely responses. Here’s a breakdown of the process:

  1. Ask for the user’s email address.
  2. Use @get_shipmonk_account_details to check if the user with that email address exists in ShipMonk.
  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_shipmonk_orders to retrieve the user’s recent orders.
  7. Display the list of recent orders and ask the user which specific order they would like to inquire about.
  8. If the order was not found, route to an agent for further investigation.

  9. Check Order Status:

  10. For the selected order, retrieve the shipping status using @shipmonk_order_details(order_id: str).
  11. If “Approved,” inform that the order was approved and is waiting to be processed.
  12. If “Processing,” inform that the order was processed and is waiting to be shipped.
  13. If “Pending Shipment,” inform that the order is pending shipment and provide a shipment date.
  14. If “Shipped,” inform that the order was shipped and provide the tracking number.
  15. If “In transit,” use the tool @shipmonk_order_details to check if the order is within the estimated delivery date; if yes, inform the order is in transit and provide the expected delivery date. If not, inform the customer that the route is delayed and that the request will be transferred to an agent for investigation.
  16. If “Delivered,” confirm with the customer if the order was delivered.
  17. If the order was not delivered, route to an agent or create a ticket to escalate for further investigation.
  18. If “Canceled,” inform that the order was already canceled.

  11. If “Approved,” inform that the order was approved and is waiting to be processed.
  12. If “Processing,” inform that the order was processed and is waiting to be shipped.
  13. If “Pending Shipment,” inform that the order is pending shipment and provide a shipment date.
  14. If “Shipped,” inform that the order was shipped and provide the tracking number.

If not, inform the customer that the route is delayed and that the request will be transferred to an agent for investigation.
  16. If “Delivered,” confirm with the customer if the order was delivered.
  17. If the order was not delivered, route to an agent or create a ticket to escalate for further investigation.
  18. If “Canceled,” inform that the order was already canceled.
