Experience the future of customer service with AI agents

Experience the future of customer service with AI agents (Public Preview of Autonomous AI Agents for Dynamics 365 Customer Service and Contact Center).

Real-time User Journey

This feature enables a seamless, autonomous end-to-end journey for both customers and service representatives:

  1. Intent Detection: A customer reaches out via chat or voice. The Customer Intent Agent uses generative AI to immediately analyze the request against an “intent library” to understand exactly what the customer needs.
  2. Autonomous Resolution or Routing: For common issues, the agent provides tailored solutions or asks follow-up questions to resolve the issue without human intervention.
  3. Case Automation: If a human representative is needed, the Case Management Agent automatically creates a case, pre-filling attributes (like issue description and contact info) so the representative has full context immediately.
  4. Proactive Follow-up: If the case remains open, the Case Management Agent tracks it and sends automated follow-up emails. Once resolved, it can even close the case and populate resolution details autonomously.
  5. Knowledge Capture: After the interaction, the Customer Knowledge Management Agent analyzes the conversation and case notes to draft a new knowledge article, ensuring the organization’s expertise grows automatically.
