Good support is based on your ability to show up for your customers whenever they need you.

Jira Service Management is brilliant at connecting customers with the help they need. But it usually involves a person providing the service. And the cost involved usually puts that level of support out of reach for many business owners.

So usually, when a customer has an important question outside of your business’s open hours, they’ll get sent to a help desk, or worse, get told to message back when you’re open.

Neither of those things are ideal. Luckily, ChatGPT and GPT-4 can revolutionize how you support your customers.

What does ChatGPT and Jira look like?

Choose the information you’d like to use, simply press Jira Service Management in eesel AI’s sources pane. You can train with past tickets, a URL and many other options.

With ChatGPT and Jira, you’ll get a chatbot that answers your customers questions.

Here’s how it works: Your customer visits your helpdesk and opens up a chat window. They can ask their question, ChatGPT will interpret it, check the information on your helpdesk, and answer their question straight away.

Why integrate ChatGPT with Jira?

1. Always on: It works when your people can’t. Your customers type a question, and ChatGPT AI answers them straight away – no matter what time it is.

2. Gives people a chance to think: ChatGPT can answer the time-consuming questions staff get over and over again, freeing them up to solve more complicated problems.

3. Great experiences: ChatGPT AIs can say things with the right tone, and provide personalized responses. You can even train it on the past responses of your best people too.

4. Helps new people: Onboarding a new team member? ChatGPT with Jira Service Management helps your newbies find answers, so they don’t have to distract their teammates.

5. Privacy and compliance: With a focus on privacy, EU data residency support, and a commitment to not using data to train models, your information remains secure.
