Capabilities

What the AI IT Helpdesk Agent can do

  1. 1

    Answer common technical questions

    Explains how to use email, VPN, printers, software and internal tools from documentation the IT team has approved.

  2. 2

    Guide basic troubleshooting

    Suggests the checks that fit the problem and the device.

  3. 3

    Create technical support requests

    Collects the description of the fault, when it started, the device involved and what has already been tried, so the ticket arrives complete.

    Route requests to the right IT team

    Classifies by account, device, network or software using your company's rules, so the responsible team can pick it up faster.

  5. 5

    Check ticket status

    Staff ask about the progress of their request and the Agent shows what that user is allowed to see.

  6. 6

    Send reminders and progress updates

    Notifies when a ticket needs more information, has been assigned or changes status, following the process that has been set.

  7. 7

    Recognise cases that need escalating

    When staff report signs of a lost account, malware or a data leak, the Agent points them to the designated response channel and passes the information to the team in charge.

  8. 8

    Summarise the common problems

    Reports the issue types asked about most, the backlog of tickets and the guidance that needs updating, where the system holds that data.

An employee cannot connect to the VPN

AI IT Helpdesk Agent

I cannot connect to the company VPN.

I can help you check. Are you on Windows or macOS? Does the VPN app show a specific error message?

Windows, the app says it cannot connect to the server.

Please check your internet connection and confirm you are using the VPN configuration the company provided. If it still fails, I will prepare a support request for IT. You do not need to send me your password or any verification code.

The internet is fine, create a ticket for me.

How is it different from the internal AI Agent?

Internal AI Agent

AI IT Helpdesk Agent

Supports knowledge lookup across departments

Focuses on devices, accounts, software and technical faults

Mainly finds information and guides work

Adds a process for taking in and tracking tickets

Serves many business teams

Serves employees and the IT team

Both run on the same platform; the Helpdesk is the specialised branch with its own technical documentation, permissions and incident process.
