Forwarding emails to other stakeholders for an email bot
By forwarding emails, customer service representatives (CSRs) save time and make their job easier as they can resolve issues by exchanging information with third- stakeholders when needed. In addition, the system is made more secure by always keeping the forwarded email conversations in separate threads from the customer conversation, so that other stakeholders do not access classified information accidentally.
For example, CSRs can address customer requests or reported issues in a triage case more efficiently by contacting additional stakeholders, such as third-party vendors, sellers, financial officers, or IT specialists. When a CSR receives a request for a car insurance quote, the CSR can forward the customer's email to the financial officer to immediately process the car insurance request.The system displays the detected sentiment of each customer email in the thread (positive, negative, or neutral) to the right of the sender's name. As a result, the system shows the sentiment pattern for the entire customer email thread for a triage case. The shown sentiment helps CSRs to respond quicker and take immediate action for the triage case. For example, when CSRs notice that an email with a negative sentiment was detected, they can immediately escalate the reported issue in the email by forwarding the email to the correct stakeholders.
