What it does

Watches inbound Intercom replies, classifies the customer's sentiment with an LLM, and escalates only the genuinely frustrated VIP messages straight to the human who owns that account. No more burying an angry enterprise customer in a shared inbox.

When to use it

Run this when you have a tier of high-value accounts whose churn risk justifies real-time human attention, and you want to skip the noise of routine support chatter. Ideal for CS or account-management teams who already track ownership in Attio.

How it works

  1. 1An inbound Intercom reply fires the trigger.
  2. 2The customer's email is looked up in Attio to confirm VIP status and find the account owner.
  3. 3Non-VIP contacts are filtered out so only priority accounts continue.
  4. 4OpenAI scores the message text for frustration, urgency, and intent on a 0-1 scale.
  5. 5A threshold check holds back calm or neutral replies.
  6. 6For frustrated VIPs, a Slack DM goes to the named account owner with the sentiment score, a one-line summary, and a deep link back into the Intercom conversation.
