AI Builders Club – Club Meeting Minutes | Ep. 7: Goodbye Manual Triage, Hello AI Router

Topic: Can AI route every support request to the right human (or bot) without missing a beat?

Meeting Agenda: Reroute your support backlog with AI


This week, Chase and Aaron answer a universal cry for help—literally. Customer support inboxes are a swamp of password resets, bug reports, and feature suggestions. Somebody has to read them all… or maybe not?

In this session, we covered:

  • Why tools like Zendesk, Freshdesk, and Intercom still rely on brittle, rule-based flows
  • How a Support Router flow could live inside your help desk or act as a real-time API triage layer
  • Key inputs: message content, user history, agent skills, urgency, billing data
  • Key outputs: instant routing decisions, tags, notes, and auto-responses
  • The stack: GPT-4o or Claude, LangChain Router, Pinecone, help desk APIs
  • Where AI shines (zero fatigue, 24/7 sorting) vs. where humans win (tone, trust, judgment)

Club Takeaway: Support shouldn’t start with a mystery. With AI as the first responder, the right person sees the right ticket—instantly. That means faster help and less burnout.

Adjourned with: “Routing isn’t busywork—it’s the start of solving.”


See you at the next meeting.
