IT Service Desk Automation
Achieve continuous improvement and enhance the employee experience by automating low-value IT service requests
Eliminate low-value manual work, improving service efficiency while boosting the value and efficiency of the IT Service Desk.
Problem
IT service desk teams are inundated with simple, repetitive tasks from channels like email, voice and case management. This includes everything from password resets to FAQs.
While simple, these transactional requests take up a high proportion of an IT service desk agent's day, slowing response times, increasing costs and driving agent churn.
IT service leaders lack the data they need to automate costly conversation-based workflows. Such tasks constrain agent productivity, hurt CSAT and make it harder to meet targets and SLAs.
Solution
Re:infer IT Service Automation understands and structures all inbound requests. It understands the meaning of every message and extracts the relevant data for automatic case creation, triage and routing.
Re:infer turns IT service desk conversations into structured data which can then be used for downstream processing by automation tools and ITSM platforms. This frees IT service desk agents to focus on more important, complex and rewarding requests.
For the first time, the end-to-end automation of the highest-volume service requests is possible.

Auto Triage Explained
Re:infer provides a fully automated triage capability that is Subject Matter Expert-driven. Inbound requests are automatically routed to the right team or person, removing the process from agent workflows.
The platform gives users fine-grained control over rules for classification, prioritisation, data extraction, and routing. Re:infer also allows for incremental deployment, meaning you can gradually scale auto triage until the required confidence levels are met.
