Support ticket deflection
Resolve routine queries in seconds, before agents see them.
A bot on your WhatsApp number answers order status, returns and policy questions the moment they arrive, and escalates everything else to your team with the full conversation attached. Businesses running deflection flows typically resolve 60–70% of inbound queries without an agent touching them.

Use cases
How support ticket deflection teams use InfiQ
Train once on your top questions
Feed the bot your 50 most-asked questions — returns, warranty, delivery charges — and it resolves them in under 5 seconds, any hour of the day.
Live status lookups
Connect Shopify, WooCommerce or your OMS so 'where is my order' returns real courier tracking at reply time, not a canned response.
Guided troubleshooting flows
Button-driven multi-step flows walk customers through returns, exchanges or device setup — issues a one-line answer can't close.
Intent-based routing
Keyword and intent rules send billing disputes to finance and complaints straight to senior agents, skipping the bot queue entirely.
Escalation with full context
When the bot misses twice or detects frustration, the chat lands in your shared inbox with transcript, order data and customer history attached.
Deflection dashboards
Track resolution rate, escalation rate and CSAT per intent, so you know which flows deflect and which need retraining.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do customers need to opt in before the bot can reply?
No. When a customer messages you first, a 24-hour service window opens and the bot can reply freely without templates or prior opt-in. InfiQ keeps consent records, audit logs and access controls on every conversation, so compliance reviews are straightforward.
What happens when the bot doesn't know the answer?
You set the escalation rules: two unrecognised messages, a keyword like 'refund not received', or an explicit 'talk to an agent' tap moves the chat to your shared team inbox with the full transcript attached. The agent replies from the same number, so the customer never leaves the thread.
Can the bot pull live order status from our systems?
Yes. Connect Shopify, WooCommerce or your OMS through native integrations, or point a webhook at any internal API. The bot fetches tracking, refund or booking status at the moment it replies, so answers reflect what your system says right now.
Do we need Meta template approval for support replies?
Not inside the 24-hour service window — bot and agent replies there need no approval. Templates are only required for follow-ups after the window closes, like a 'your replacement has shipped' update two days later. Approval usually clears within minutes to a few hours.
How is deflection actually measured?
A query counts as deflected only when the conversation closes without an agent message and the customer doesn't reopen it within 48 hours. InfiQ's dashboard breaks deflection, escalation rate and CSAT down per intent, so the number reflects real resolutions, not abandoned chats.
Will putting a bot in front of customers hurt satisfaction?
Every bot menu carries a talk-to-an-agent button, so nobody gets trapped in a loop. Because 'where is my order' gets answered in seconds instead of sitting in a 4-hour email queue, CSAT typically rises after launch. Watch escalation rate per intent and retire any flow that frustrates.
