What it does

Turns inbound technical support tickets into ready-to-review draft replies. It interprets the customer's equipment question, retrieves grounded passages from the versioned manual index, and writes a citation-backed answer as an internal draft so a human agent can approve and send.

When to use it

When your support queue is full of repetitive 'what is the spec / how do I' equipment questions and you want agents reviewing accurate drafts instead of researching from scratch. Keeps a human in the loop for liability while removing the lookup work.

How it works

  1. 1A new ticket arrives in Zendesk and fires the trigger.
  2. 2The flow extracts the equipment model and the core question from the ticket body.
  3. 3The question is matched against the Supabase manual vector store, returning passages with page numbers.
  4. 4OpenAI drafts an answer grounded only in those passages, with inline page citations.
  5. 5A logic step routes low-confidence retrievals to a human-only tag instead of drafting.
  6. 6The draft reply with citations is attached to the ticket as an internal note for agent review.
