Escalate Urgent Issues Immediately
Nora flags angry customers and urgent issues, alerts your manager instantly
Angry customers need immediate attention. This automation reads Intercom messages, detects frustration signals, and escalates to a manager before the customer leaves.
Unhappy customers can turn into refunds or bad reviews in minutes. By the time a support agent realizes a customer is upset, it might be too late. This automation reads every message in Intercom in real-time. Nora analyzes the tone and language for frustration signals: ALL CAPS, repeated punctuation (!!!), negative words ('hate,' 'worst,' 'unacceptable,' 'scam'), and requests for refunds or cancellation. If Nora detects frustration, she immediately: (1) tags the conversation 'ESCALATED,' (2) notifies your support manager via Slack/email with a summary, and (3) suggests talking points for de-escalation. Your manager can then jump in, take over, or coach the agent in real-time. Example: A customer writes: 'This is RIDICULOUS!!! I've been waiting 3 days for an answer. Your service is the WORST. I'm canceling TODAY.' Nora detects the all-caps, negative words, and cancellation threat. Within 30 seconds, your manager gets a Slack: 'ESCALATION: Customer angry, threatening cancel. Issue: slow response time. Recommend: personal apology, expedited solution, account credit.' Manager jumps in and resolves before the customer leaves.
