Route customer support tickets to specialists using ensemble uncertainty to identify complex cases that need expert attention.

Workflow Steps

1

Zendesk

Extract ticket content

Set up Zendesk webhook to automatically capture new ticket text, customer history, and initial categorization when tickets are submitted.

2

OpenAI GPT-4

Generate multiple classifications

Send ticket content to GPT-4 API with different prompts/temperatures to get multiple classification predictions (urgent/normal, technical/billing, complexity score) creating an ensemble of responses.

3

Python Script

Calculate uncertainty score

Build a script that analyzes disagreement between the multiple GPT-4 responses using variance in confidence scores and classification consistency to identify high-uncertainty cases.

4

Zendesk

Route based on confidence

Configure Zendesk automation to route high-uncertainty tickets (where the ensemble disagrees) to senior agents, while routing confident predictions to appropriate specialized queues.
