An AI Copilot is an artificial intelligence assistant that works alongside human customer service agents, providing real-time support during interactions. Unlike autonomous AI agents that handle customers directly, copilots augment human capabilities.

What AI Copilots Do

  • Suggest responses: Draft replies for agent review
  • Surface knowledge: Pull relevant articles and information
  • Summarize context: Recap long conversation threads
  • Automate tasks: Handle routine actions while agent focuses on customer
  • Quality guidance: Suggest tone and content improvements

AI Copilot vs AI Agent

  • AI Agent: Handles customer interactions autonomously
  • AI Copilot: Assists human agents during interactions

Many organizations use both: AI agents for routine inquiries, AI copilots for complex cases.

Key Capabilities

  • Response drafting: Generates suggested replies based on context
  • Knowledge retrieval: Finds relevant information instantly
  • Thread summarization: Condenses long email chains
  • Next-best-action: Recommends appropriate resolution steps
  • Learning loop: Improves from agent edits and feedback

Benefits for Agents

  • Faster handling: 40-60% reduction in average handle time
  • Consistent quality: On-brand responses every time
  • Reduced training time: New agents productive faster
  • Less burnout: AI handles repetitive research

Implementation Considerations

  • Integration: Must work within existing agent desktop
  • Trust: Agents need to trust and adopt suggestions
  • Customization: Trained on company-specific content
  • Measurement: Track adoption and impact on metrics
