The Support Challenge

Your Support Operation is Bleeding Money and Talent

More customers = more tickets = higher costs. AI promises to help, but most deployments fail. Support Leaders deserve better.

Book Strategy Session

Rising Costs

More tickets = more agents = higher costs and endless turnover.

Knowledge Drain

When top agents leave, your knowledge walks out with them.

Failed AI Attempts

Failed AI deployments that cost a fortune and don't deliver.

Implementation

Our Phased Approach to AI Support

We don't hand you the keys and walk away. Our team rolls Kay out in three deliberate phases so it earns its way to autonomous resolution — without breaking your customer experience.

Phase one

AI Triage

  • Auto-classifies, prioritizes & routes tickets
  • Enriches with context to stop manual sorting
  • Lower backlog & faster first response
Phase two

AI Answers

  • Drafts accurate replies or asks follow-ups
  • Automates repetitive cases, shortens handle time
  • Higher CSAT & shorter resolution times
Phase three

AI Continuous Learning

  • Seamless escalation to agents on edge cases
  • Learns from human resolutions to improve coverage
  • Compounding efficiency over time
The Platform

A Complete, Modern Help Desk Platform

Everything your team needs in one product: an omnichannel inbox, automation, knowledge base, SLAs, analytics, and enterprise-grade security.

Omnichannel inbox

Email, live chat, social, and voice land in one shared queue — so nothing slips through the cracks.

SingleView customer context

Every ticket carries the customer's full history, orders, and data — for agents and for Kay.

No-code workflow automation

Route, assign, escalate, and take action with rules your team builds — no engineering required.

Knowledge base with semantic search

A native help center that answers customers directly and gives Kay the source material to resolve cases.

Analytics & SLA management

Track first contact resolution, total resolution time, cost per ticket, and SLA health in real time.

Enterprise security & compliance

SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, SSO/SAML, role-based access, and audit logs built in from day one.

Expert-led deployment. Run Kayako One as your full, modern help desk — or implement the Kay AI Agent into the help desk you already use (Zendesk, Freshdesk, Intercom, Salesforce). Either way, the entire deployment is led by our experts, so your AI is configured, trained, and tuned to succeed. Most teams are live in days, with 80% of repetitive tickets automated within 90.

Why Kayako wins

AI deployments don't fail because of the AI.
They fail because nobody set it up.

Most vendors hand you a model and a login. We hand you a team. That difference is why our customers actually hit their resolution targets.

Most AI vendors

"Here are the keys."

  • Generic model, untrained on your tickets or tone
  • Configuration, prompts, and integration are your problem
  • "Production-ready" pilots that never ship
  • Support team becomes the ML team. Project stalls.
Kayako

"We deploy it with you."

  • Full white-glove team. Implementation engineers, prompt experts, and a dedicated success manager.
  • Trained on your tickets, your products, and your tone before Kay ever touches a customer.
  • Phased rollout. Triage first, answers second, autonomous resolution last. Each phase has to earn the next.
  • Resolution targets in writing. If we don't hit them, the work isn't done.

That's why every Kayako customer reaches their resolution targets. We don't just sell software. We deploy it with you.

Meet Kay

The AI support agent that plugs into your help desk.

Kay is Kayako's AI support agent. It reads tickets, drafts replies, takes action, and resolves cases automatically, working with the help desk you already use.

  • No migration required. Kay sits on top of Zendesk, Freshdesk, Intercom, or the Kayako helpdesk. Wherever your tickets live today.
  • Resolves tickets and takes action. Kay can triage, draft replies, create users, issue refunds, update data, and close cases your team shouldn't be touching.
  • Trained on your tickets, not on a generic model. The longer Kay runs, the better it gets at your customers' questions.

Book Your Strategy Session to Learn How to Scale Support (without Scaling Headcount)

When Kayako is implemented, we consistently see CSAT improve. That's the ultimate measure of customer support — but CSAT doesn't move on its own. It improves when the right leading metrics are in place.

The three key indicators we move:

  • First Contact Resolution The fewer tickets it takes to solve, the better.
  • Total Resolution Time The faster we respond, the better.
  • Cost per Ticket The more efficiently we operate, the better.

On a strategy session, our Kayako Implementation Team will look at your current numbers, show you where Kay can move them, and map out a phased plan to get there — without taking on migration risk. We'll dig into:

  • Your current support challenges and ticket volumes
  • The clearest opportunities to scale support in your organization
  • A phased plan to scale support — starting in the help desk you already use
