A voice assistant that creates complete tickets and keeps your data in-house

The AI Help Desk relieves your 1st-level support, resolves requests independently and creates complete tickets directly in your ticket system. Entirely local, if you wish.

Why calls are particularly time-consuming in support

They talk. But they do not solve any problems.

An email can wait. A call ties up a person immediately, regardless of whether it is a critical outage or a simple standard question. This repeatedly leads to the same challenges in your support:

  • Standard questions tie up your employees, even though the answers have long been documented. Looking things up on the phone still takes longer than simply answering
  • Urgent and simple requests are not always cleanly separated. When things have to be fast, a critical outage ends up right next to a minor matter
  • Tickets are recorded differently. Category and priority depend on who takes the call
  • Important information is missing. Device, error pattern or time often have to be clarified in a callback before your team can start
  • Calls outside your service hours end up on the answering machine and have to be transferred into tickets by hand the next morning

Our approach

The AI Help Desk addresses exactly these five points and takes over part of your 1st-level support, from the structured recording of the request to the creation of the complete ticket.

From call to finished ticket in one conversation

At the start, the assistant says that an AI is answering the phone. It then takes the request, asks what is still missing for your ticket, and repeats everything at the end for confirmation. Only then is the ticket created.

Example from an internal help desk

AI assistant

Hello, this is the IT service assistant. You are speaking with an AI. I will take your request and create a ticket from it.

Caller

The projector in room 2.14 no longer turns on.

AI assistant

Since when has the device been failing, and what model is it?

Caller

Since yesterday afternoon. It is an Epson EB-2250U.

AI assistant

When do you need the room again?

Caller

Tomorrow at 10 a.m., a lecture with 80 students.

In the backgroundThe category results from the structure of your system, the priority from the rules that were defined together beforehand. The building services team is responsible here; the assistant assigns the ticket to this processing group.
AI assistant

I repeat: Epson EB-2250U projector in room 2.14 not working, since yesterday afternoon, needed by tomorrow 10 a.m. I will create the ticket with high priority for building services. Is that correct?

Caller

Yes, exactly.

Your team finds a ticket it can start working on immediately. No call log, no retyping. For simple requests this step is omitted entirely, because the assistant already gives the answer on the phone.

The assistant takes over 1st-level support on the phone

Not every call is a case for your team. How do I reset my password, when does the registration deadline expire: the assistant clarifies this 1st-level support, i.e. the simple recurring questions, directly in the conversation. It works with a RAG system, i.e. it first searches for the answer in your own documents and then formulates it. If it finds nothing, it says so openly and creates a ticket. No guessing.

It only accesses what you have approved:

  • PDFs, Word files and existing documentation
  • structured questionnaires that we fill in together with you
  • live data from your systems, if you wish

Your team then only sees the requests for which it is really needed.

How the assistant sounds

We agree on the manner and tone with you before go-live. How formal is the speech? Which technical terms are common in your organisation? How does the assistant react when someone calls in an angry mood?

With a voice from your organisation, if you wish.

We replicate the voice of a person from your team so that callers hear a voice they know. This is particularly worthwhile where the same people call again and again, for example in an internal help desk. It is not necessary, the assistant also sounds natural with a standard voice.

You decide where the conversations are processed

Your conversations stay in the infrastructure you choose: by default a data centre in Germany, or entirely on-premise on your own servers if you wish. Neither the speech recognition nor the response logic passes content on to a third-party language model.

Regional server (standard)

On-premise at your site

Where does the processing take place?

In a data centre in Germany

In your own infrastructure, i.e. on servers in your house

Disclosure to third parties

None

None

Dedicated server environment per customer

Yes

Yes

Does conversation content leave your premises?

It does not leave Germany

It does not leave your infrastructure

Suitable for

Organisations that do not want to operate their own servers for this

All those whose conversations involve particularly sensitive data, such as public authorities, critical infrastructure, law firms, medical practices and universities

Both variants run in a dedicated server environment that only you use. Your conversation data is not stored together with that of other customers on a shared system.

You can start with the standard variant and later switch to in-house operation without having to rebuild the assistant.

Adapts to your ticket system and your rules

You keep your existing ticket system. The AI Help Desk is connected directly and creates tickets where your team already works.

The assistant adopts your ticket structure, mandatory fields, categories and priority levels and applies them consistently to every call.

Your rules for category and priority

Before go-live, we jointly define when a request is urgent and where it belongs. Your rules become the decision logic of the assistant.

  • How many people are affected? A central system that nobody can reach weighs more heavily than a single workstation.
  • Is there a workaround? A broken printer with a second device in the next room is something different from the only printer in the building.
  • Is a deadline running? A lecture hall that is needed for a lecture in two hours is more urgent than the same room during the holidays.

 

In your set of rules, this can look like this:

Request

Priority

Category

Central system for several departments not reachable

Highest

IT operations

Equipment in a room defective, use scheduled in the next few hours

High

Building services

New software to be installed, no time pressure

Low

IT operations

Category and priority also determine the responsible processing group. Changes to the rules apply immediately to the following calls.

From initial set-up to fully managed service

We build the assistant according to your requirements, connect it to your ticket system and hand it over ready to use. Your team does not have to learn a new tool, because the tickets appear in the familiar system.

Project: set-up

Workshop

We look at your most frequent reasons for calling and your ticket structure: which fields are mandatory and which rules apply to category and priority. We also clarify which operating variant suits your data.

Rules and knowledge base

We transfer your categorisation rules into the assistant’s logic and prepare the documents from which it is to answer simple requests directly.

Integration

We connect the assistant to your ticket system and set up the telephony.

Test operation

We call the assistant with real reasons for calling, check the resulting tickets field by field and fine-tune before a single real call goes through.

Fully managed service (ongoing)

Performance review, twice a year.

We look at which calls actually come in, where the categorisation did not fit and what knowledge is missing, and adjust the rules accordingly.

You see why people call you

Every call produces data on the side about what is currently not working or cannot be found in your organisation. You receive it fully analysed.

Planned are:

Call volume by day, week and month, including times outside your service hours

Share of calls that were resolved in the conversation without a ticket being created

Distribution of tickets by category and priority

Most frequent reasons for calling as a ranking

Call duration and time until the finished ticket

This shows you where documentation is missing and where a recurring problem lies behind many individual calls.

It is also the basis for the performance review as part of the fully managed service.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about the AI Help Desk

The connection runs via the interface of your system, so a switch is not necessary. Tell us your system and we will check the connection in advance.

No. It answers the request or creates a ticket.

Yes. The assistant says so at the beginning of the conversation, even when it speaks with a voice from your organisation.

Yes, on request we replicate the voice of a person from your team. For this we need the consent of this person.

Yes. On request, we operate the AI Help Desk entirely in your own infrastructure. By default it runs on a regional server in Germany, without any third-party provider seeing the content.

That depends on how clear your ticket structure and your categorisation rules already are. We define the timetable together in the workshop.

Your team can correct the ticket in the system, just like any other. We look at such cases in the performance review and adjust the rules.

Yes. On request, you get access to the table with the categorisation rules and to the knowledge base. Fully managed means for us: you do not have to take care of it. But you may, if you want to.
