## What is AI Autoresponder?

In the fast-paced world of customer service, speed is everything. But as your business grows, the volume of incoming tickets can quickly overwhelm even the most seasoned team. Try LiveAgent’s AI Autoresponder—a powerful AI feature, powered by FlowHunt, that acts as your first line of support.

Imagine having a first level support agent that never sleeps, works instantly, and handles every single new inquiry the moment it arrives.

## How the AI Autoresponder works

The most effective way to use the AI Autoresponder is as an automated filter for your support desk. Here is how many of our successful customers are currently utilizing it:

- **Instant interaction**: As soon as a customer submits a ticket, the AI Autoresponder analyzes the query and sends an immediate, AI-generated response.
- **Flexible knowledge sources**: Just like our Chatbot or Answer Assistant, the AI answers based strictly on the data you provide. You have full control over its “brain”:  
  - Web only: It can pull answers strictly from your public website  
  - Knowledge base: It can utilize your internal or public LiveAgent articles  
  - Internal databases: It can connect to your specific internal resources to provide personalized data  
  - Attached documents: It can fetch information from any files or documents  
- **Human escalation**: If the AI’s answer resolves the issue, the ticket can be automatically marked as resolved and closed using LiveAgent rules—without any human intervention. If the customer replies indicating the issue persists, rules can automatically transfer the ticket to second-level support (human agents).

This ensures your team only spends time on complex issues that truly require a human touch, while routine questions are resolved in seconds.

## Two ways to deploy: Full automation vs. human oversight

Not every business is ready to let an AI fly solo. That’s why the AI Autoresponder offers two distinct workflows depending on your preference for control:

- **Option A: Fully automated reply**  
- **Option B: The “draft & approve” method**

### Option A: Fully automated reply

The AI Autoresponder generates the response and sends it directly to the customer as soon as the ticket is created. This is perfect for high-volume desks aiming for maximum efficiency and zero response time.

### Option B: The “draft & approve” method

The AI Autoresponder processes the ticket but, instead of replying to the customer, it adds the suggested answer as a private note within the ticket. Your agent can then review the suggestion, make minor tweaks if necessary, and copy-paste it into the reply editor. This provides a final layer of human quality control while still saving the agent the time of drafting a response from scratch.

## Key benefits of automating your first response

- **Drastic cost reduction**: Handle high volumes of tickets without hiring more staff. The AI Autoresponder manages the “busy work” of first level support.
- **24/7 availability**: Your customers get an intelligent response at 3:00 AM on a Sunday, just as fast as they would on a Tuesday morning.
- **Seamless scalability**: Whether you get 10 tickets or 1,000 today, the AI Autoresponder scales instantly to meet the demand.
- **Reduced human error**: Ensure every customer receives a polite, professional, and brand-consistent greeting every single time.

## Technical setup

The AI Autoresponder is powered by FlowHunt, our no-code AI automation platform. You can trigger the AI Autoresponder within LiveAgent using simple automation rules.

Because FlowHunt and LiveAgent are both products of Quality Unit, integration is seamless. For customers with active subscriptions to both platforms, our support team offers full initial setup of your AI automations.
