Deflect the repetitive, escalate the rest

Good automation answers the order-status question and gets out of the way. We build confidence-gated support that resolves tier-1 instantly and hands hard cases to a human with context.

Where it hurts · what we build

Deflect the volume, protect the relationship.

Tier-1 deflection
Customer-facing app
The pain

Paid agents waste hours answering repetitive policy and order-status questions.

What we build

An intelligent agent that intercepts common queries and resolves them from the approved knowledge base.

Triage & routing
Operational automation
The pain

Generic inboxes require manual sorting before any work can begin.

What we build

Software that reads the semantic intent of each message and routes it to the right department instantly.

311 constituent intake
Parallel system
The pain

Call volumes overwhelm municipal lines during emergencies and public events.

What we build

A subcontracted intake layer that captures reports, categorizes urgency, and feeds municipal dispatch.

One deflection path

Every message is read, resolved or escalated with context .

For support teams buried in repetitive tier-1 messages while hard cases wait behind them.

The agent reads the incoming message, resolves it from your knowledge base when it is confident, and escalates to a human with a summary when it is not, so a person only sees what needs them.

The cost of standing still

What manual tier-1 support costs.

Agents answer the same order-status and policy questions hundreds of times a week while complex cases wait. Manual tier-1 support does not scale, and bad bots damage trust. These figures describe the customer service sector, not Techtiz engagements—and what manual tier-1 costs.

What we build

What every support build ships with.

01

Knowledge-grounded answers

Responses come only from your approved knowledge base, using strict retrieval parameters.

02

Confidence thresholds

When the system is not highly certain, it escalates to a human immediately.

03

Context handoff

Escalations carry a generated summary, so agents resolve faster instead of starting cold.

04

API-layer integration

It sits on top of your ticketing platform via API, leaving the agent dashboard intact.

For U.S. SLED prime contractors

Constituent service and 311 intake, behind the prime.

For SLED scope under NAICS 541512, we build constituent intake and triage layers as your subcontractor, feeding structured data to municipal systems, never facing the agency.

NAICS 541512 561422 518210
See SLED Subcontracting

NDA-first, subcontract-only. We work behind the prime, under your brand. We do not pursue prime contracts and we never face the agency.

Human-in-the-loop fallback. Low-confidence cases route to a person immediately, protecting the constituent relationship.

On top of your stack. The intelligence layer integrates by API, with no rip-and-replace of the existing platform.

FAQ

Customer service automation, answered.

Will the bot trap our frustrated customers in an endless loop?

No. The system is designed with a low-friction, immediate escalation path to a human agent.

How do we know the bot gives accurate refund or policy answers?

It relies exclusively on your approved knowledge base documents, using strict retrieval parameters.

Does this require replacing our ticketing software?

No. It integrates via API as an intelligence layer on top of your current platform.

What if a customer uses slang or complex phrasing?

Natural language processing identifies the core intent; if the phrasing is unclear, it defaults to human routing immediately.

Bad bots damage our brand. Why should we trust this?

That is the right concern. We set strict confidence thresholds, so anything uncertain escalates to a human, keeping a human-in-the-loop fallback at all times.
