Member enquiry agent

Research done before the enquiry is opened, with every fact traceable to the record behind it.

What it does

The member enquiry agent classifies an incoming written enquiry, retrieves the member's record and recent activity through MCP servers, finds the applicable policy or product wording, and drafts a reply with citations. A person reviews and sends every reply.

It is designed for regulated service teams: superannuation, insurance, banking and utilities, where a wrong answer is costly and an untraceable one is worse.

Built for contact centres where the research takes longer than the reply. The agent assembles the account, recent activity and the right policy wording before a person opens the enquiry.

Ships in shadow mode first, scored against the replies your team actually sent.

Questions we get asked

Can it give financial advice?

No. It drafts factual replies from the record and approved wording. Anything that looks like advice is routed to a qualified person.

How do you measure accuracy?

Against a test set of your own historical enquiries and the replies actually sent, scored by topic.
