Solutions · Chat Intake

Chat handoffs triaged, owned, and logged automatically.

When a live chat ends, the handoff arrives as a notification — and disappears into a shared inbox. InboxIQ reads the context, scores urgency, assigns the right team member, and logs the decision before anyone opens the queue.

The Problem

Chat handoffs fall through the cracks

High-value escalations missed

An enterprise customer's chat escalation arrives as a handoff notification — and sits unread in the same queue as routine chat transcripts.

No context at handoff

The team member who picks up the handoff has to re-read the full chat transcript to understand what happened. No urgency score. No next step. Just a pile of text.

No single owner

Chat handoffs land in a shared inbox. The handoff sits unassigned until someone manually routes it — by which time the customer has already followed up by email.

How It Works

Chat handoff to routed, owned decision

1

Chat platforms forward handoffs to InboxIQ

Intercom, Drift, Zendesk Chat, and most live chat tools can send handoff notifications to an email address or webhook. InboxIQ connects to that destination and picks up every handoff automatically.

2

AI reads the transcript and scores urgency

InboxIQ reads the chat context, detects sentiment, identifies the customer tier, and assigns an urgency score. Churn risk, billing issues, and enterprise escalations are surfaced immediately.

3

Routed to the right owner with full context

The handoff lands with a named owner, urgency context, and suggested next step — not a wall of text. Your team acts, not sorts.

0

High-urgency handoffs missed

Escalations from enterprise and at-risk accounts are flagged and routed before anyone opens the queue.

100%

Handoffs with named owner

Every chat handoff is assigned to a team member with a response deadline — no shared-inbox limbo.

Faster follow-up on escalations

Context at point of handoff means no time lost re-reading the transcript before taking action.
