Every Customer Direct program includes Happitu, our proprietary AI platform for conversation intelligence and Auto-QA. Configured around your e-commerce operation, it surfaces purchase objections, fulfillment friction, recurring product questions, and coaching opportunities. These insights go beyond what even the best-trained agents can report on their own.

Purchase intent and objection trends

Classify purchase intent, objections, and sentiment across pre-sale and order conversations to see why shoppers buy and where they hesitate.

Order and fulfillment contact reasons

Break down order, shipping, and fulfillment contact reasons to expose the workflow gaps that drive avoidable support volume.

Return and complaint root causes

Auto-QA evaluates every eligible interaction against your brand and workflow standards. Customer Direct uses the results to identify gaps, coach agents, and track improvement.

Which e-commerce interactions can Customer Direct handle?+

Programs can support product and policy questions, order entry, delivery status, changes, backorders, returns, refunds, complaints, loyalty, and approved retention workflows.

Can Customer Direct work in our existing systems?+

Yes, when approved. Representatives can be trained in the CRM, help desk, scheduling, order, account, and communication workflows required for the defined program.

Can coverage expand for seasonal or unexpected demand?+

Programs can include ongoing, overflow, after-hours, seasonal, or event-driven coverage. Forecasting, training, access, and staffing requirements are defined during planning.

How is service quality measured?+

Customer Direct builds a program scorecard around response, completion, escalation, quality, customer experience, and business outcomes relevant to the work being performed.

How does an industry-specific program get started?+

We begin by defining interaction types, systems, business rules, volume, service levels, escalation paths, and success measures. A controlled pilot can validate the workflow before broader rollout.
