Great support is being able to answer your customers’ questions the moment they ask them.
Zendesk is a fantastic tool for connecting customers with your support people. But that’s the thing, it involves a person. Which means to offer the 24/7 support customers expect, you need people working around the clock.
Most businesses can’t afford that level of customer care. So usually, when a customer has a pressing question outside of business hours, they’ll get a message that sends them to the helpdesk, or tells them when to get back in touch.
Obviously, that’s not ideal. Luckily ChatGPT and GPT-4 can revolutionize how we offer support.
What does ChatGPT and Zendesk look like?
By combining ChatGPT and Zendesk, you get a chatbot that can answer any question just like a person would.
It works like this: A customer comes to your Zendesk, opens up a chat window and asks their question. ChatGPT understands it, checks the information you’ve trained it on and answers your customers’ questions.
Imagine a 🚀 genius AI 🚀 that can answer any question based on whatever your customers type – just like your best customer support people can.
Why Integrate ChatGPT with Zendesk?

- Great experiences: ChatGPT AIs can answer questions with the right tone, and provide personalized responses. You can even train it on the past responses of your best people too.
- Help your new starters: Onboarding a new team member? ChatGPT with Zendesk can give them a way to find answers without bugging their new teammates.
