    What you buy

    A one-off configuration project, delivered remotely, that sets up the rules inside your existing helpdesk: which ticket goes to which queue, the acknowledgement the customer gets back, the timers that flag a ticket approaching its response target, the canned replies agents reuse, and what happens when nobody picks it up.

What is this, in plain English?

A one-off configuration project, delivered remotely, that sets up the rules inside your existing helpdesk: which ticket goes to which queue, the acknowledgement the customer gets back, the timers that flag a ticket approaching its response target, the canned replies agents reuse, and what happens when nobody picks it up.

This assumes you already own a helpdesk. If you do not, the Helpdesk / Ticketing System product builds one. If you want something that reads a question and writes the answer, that is the AI Customer Support Agent. This is the rules layer in between: no ticket sits unclaimed, every customer gets a reply confirming you have it, and the queue shows a manager where the time actually goes.

The problem it solves

You bought a helpdesk and it became a shared inbox with reference numbers — everything lands in one queue, priority is whoever shouted loudest, and a request can sit two days before anyone notices it.

If that does not describe you, this is probably the wrong product. Tell us and we will point you at a better fit rather than sell you the nearest one.

What you get

The concrete things that exist at the end and that you own.

What does it do?

Everything listed here is delivered as part of this product. Nothing on this list is aspirational.

  • Routing rules by subject, sender, product or channel
  • An automatic acknowledgement carrying a reference and your stated response time
  • Response and resolution timers per priority, with a warning before the target passes
  • A library of up to 25 canned replies agents can insert and edit
  • Escalation when a ticket is unassigned or untouched for a set period
  • Business-hours calendars, so timers do not run overnight or at weekends
  • A weekly report on volume, first response and open backlog

How it works

The delivery sequence from order to handover.

  1. 1

    Review real tickets

    We read a defined period of actual traffic to see what arrives, which is rarely what the existing categories suggest.

  2. 2

    Agree routing and targets

    Queues, priorities, owners and the response target for each priority. The targets are yours to set — they are your internal commitments, not something we underwrite.

  3. 3

    Configure in your helpdesk

    Rules, timers, acknowledgements and canned replies are built inside your own helpdesk account, under your admin.

  4. 4

    Test every route

    Sample tickets are pushed through each rule to check where they land and which timer starts.

  5. 5

    Train agents and review

    Agents are trained on the canned library and the escalation path, then we review the rules after 30 days of real traffic.

Delivery & fulfilment

Delivery method
Remote Setup
Expected delivery time
2–3 weeks
Measured from the point everything under “what we need from you” is with us — not from the moment you pay.

Full detail of how work is handed over, what happens if requirements are outstanding and how order records are kept is in the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.

What we need from you

Nothing starts until these are in place, and the turnaround above is measured from that point — not from the moment you pay.

  • An existing helpdesk with administrator access for us
  • A decision on your response target for each priority
  • A named owner for every queue
  • A sample of recent tickets for the review

Who this is for

  • Support teams already running a helpdesk product
  • Businesses with response commitments written into contracts
  • Teams where tickets are picked up by whoever happens to notice
  • Managers who cannot see where support time is going

Business needs this addresses: Manage customers, Automate work, Improve operations

What's not included

Just as plainly as the list above: the things this package is not.

  • Helpdesk subscription and per-agent seat fees, billed to you directly by that vendor
  • Rules your helpdesk product does not expose — we check what is configurable before quoting and cannot add features the vendor has not built
  • Vendor changes to the helpdesk’s features, API or pricing, which happen on their schedule and may require rework
  • Answering tickets — this routes and times the work, it does not staff your desk
  • AI-written replies, which is a separate product with its own model usage costs
  • Any assurance that response targets will be met, which depends entirely on your staffing

Anything outside the scope above is quoted separately, in writing, before it is carried out. Nothing is added to your bill without your agreement.

FAQs

Which helpdesk products can you configure?

Any helpdesk that exposes rules, triggers and canned replies to an administrator, which covers most of the mainstream ones. Before quoting we check that the specific rules you want are configurable in your product. If the vendor has not built the capability, we tell you before work starts rather than after the fee is paid.

Do the timers create an obligation to the customer?

No. They are internal timers measuring targets you set, and they warn a manager before a target passes. Whether you owe a customer a contractual response time, and what that contract says, is between you and that customer. We implement the numbers you give us and take no view on them.

Can we change the rules ourselves afterwards?

Yes. The rules live in your helpdesk, in your own account, and your team is trained to edit them. Restructuring the queues themselves is a separate piece of work, which we quote once we know what has changed.

Refund & cancellation

What happens if you change your mind, and what happens to money already paid.

Cooling-off before work starts
You have 7 days after ordering to cancel while work has not yet begun. Up to 25% may be retained to cover scoping and scheduling already carried out.
Work already done
Once delivery has started, refunds are assessed against the work completed and the deliverables already handed over — the list under “what you get” above is what that assessment is made against. Approved refunds are processed within 14 days.
If we cannot deliver what is described here
You are refunded. The scope on this page is the scope we are held to, which is exactly why the exclusions above are stated before you buy rather than after.

The full terms, item type by item type, are in the Refund & Cancellation Policy. How the work reaches you is covered by the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.

Not sure this is the right product?

We would rather point you at the right thing than sell you the nearest one. Ask us before you buy — no obligation.
