Live at Intrum UK: 2,400 emails a month, 92% classification accuracy, four weeks to production.

Every customer email answered on time, every time

An agent that reads every inbound email, pulls the account context and writes the reply. Start with it drafting and your team sending, so nothing reaches a customer unread, then let it send the categories the numbers say it has earned. Built for ops teams in financial services, debt collection and regulated industries handling 500+ emails a month.

"We automated 2,400 emails a month without changing a single tool our agents use. The system was live in four weeks and the team didn't need any retraining."

You're paying people to sort mail

Every email sorted by hand is a compliance risk, a missed SLA, and a cost that scales with your inbox.

Skilled people doing unskilled work

Your ops team spends a significant part of every day deciding where emails go, not resolving them. That's qualified headcount doing clerical sorting.

Urgent emails wait in line

Complaints and escalations sit behind routine queries. By the time a human spots them, the SLA is already breached.

Wrong team, wrong queue, repeat

Misrouted emails get passed between teams before reaching the right agent. Every handoff adds delay and erodes the customer experience.

Headcount scales with volume

Email volume up 30%? Hire more people. Manual triage has no leverage, every new customer adds cost.

You do not have to let it send anything

Most regulated teams are not blocked on whether the AI is good enough. They are blocked on what happens the first time it is wrong in writing, to a customer, in a channel where every word is evidence. So start where your risk appetite actually is, and move when the numbers earn it.

1. Draft only

The agent reads the email, pulls the account context, and writes the reply into your agent's queue. A human reads it and hits send. Nothing reaches a customer without a person seeing it, so the worst case is a draft somebody deletes. Most of the handling time disappears anyway, because the reading, the looking up and the typing were the work.

2. Auto send on the categories you trust

After a few weeks you can see accuracy by category. The straightforward ones, statement requests, address changes, balance queries, go autonomous. Everything else keeps drafting. You choose the line, per category, and move it when the evidence says so rather than when a supplier says so.

3. Autonomous with exceptions

The agent handles the queue and escalates on defined triggers: vulnerability signals, complaint language, anything outside its categories, anything where confidence drops. The exceptions are written down and evidenced per email rather than left to a model's judgement.

Every step is measured against the baseline captured before anything went live, so the decision to move from one to the next is a number rather than a feeling. How we measure.

How it works

Email arrives. AI reads it. Agent gets a pre-triaged task. You change nothing.

01

Email arrives

Connects to your existing Microsoft 365, Gmail, or any mail provider. No new tools for your team. No new address for your customers.

02

AI classifies in seconds

Every email gets a category, priority, SLA band, routing team, and risk flags automatically. Confident decisions logged with full reasoning for audit.

03

Right queue, right now

A structured task arrives in the correct team's CRM queue, fully pre-populated. No forwarding. No re-reading. Urgent items surface first.

04

Resolve, don't sort

Agents open pre-triaged work and start helping customers immediately. The AI handled the sorting. Your team handles the outcomes.

What your agents see

Every email becomes a structured task, pre-populated and ready to work. No reading. No deciding. Just resolving.

Common questions

What's the ROI?

A 10-person team spending 2 hours a day on triage pays £4,000 to £8,000 a month in labour just to sort mail. We scope against your volumes and quote a fixed price for delivery, and we capture your baseline before go live so the saving is a measured number rather than an assertion. See how we measure.

What about data security?

All processing runs in your chosen AWS region. Customer data is never retained by the AI provider. Full GDPR compliance. We sign DPAs as standard.

Do we need to change our email setup?

No. We connect to your existing mailbox via read-only API. Customers keep emailing the same address. Nothing changes for your team or your customers.

What CRMs do you support?

Salesforce, Zendesk, ServiceNow, HubSpot, Amazon Connect Cases, and custom systems via API or webhook.

Can we customise the categories?

Yes. The taxonomy is built around your business during implementation. You define the categories, we build the AI to match.

What happens when the AI is uncertain?

Low-confidence emails are flagged for human review with the reasoning shown. Nothing gets silently misrouted.

What does not change when the channel does

Each channel gets its own agent. One set of tools, one set of rules. The channel changes what the agent can do. It does not change what it is held to.
