How a question becomes a grounded answer
When a customer asks something, the assistant first retrieves the most relevant passages from your approved sources - help articles, product docs, policies and resolved tickets - and then composes an answer constrained to that retrieved material. Because the response is tied to specific passages, each reply can carry a citation back to the article or document it drew from, so an agent can confirm the answer is correct rather than trusting it blindly. If the assistant cannot find supporting material, it is designed to say so and hand over rather than invent a plausible-sounding answer.
Every reply also carries a confidence signal that drives what happens next. High-confidence answers on topics you have cleared for automation can be sent or queued as drafts; anything below your threshold, or touching a sensitive topic, is routed to a human with a short handover summary. You set those thresholds and topic rules during onboarding, and we revisit them as real conversations show where the assistant is reliable and where it needs a person.
