Faciotech Launches a 24/7 AI Assistant With Live Agent Handoff

The Faciotech AI Assistant answers hosting, domain, email and billing questions at all hours, drawn from the knowledge base, with an agent one tap away.

ACCRA, Ghana, 21 May 2022. Faciotech has launched an AI assistant that answers hosting, domain, email and billing questions from any page of faciotech.com, around the clock. The assistant draws its answers from Faciotech's own documentation, links to the articles it used, and hands the conversation to a human agent whenever a customer asks for one.

24/7 support that does not wait for office hours

Most support questions are not complicated. A customer wants to know which DNS record points a subdomain at a new server, where the SSL certificate lives in the control panel, why an invoice shows a currency they did not expect, or what happens to their site if they upgrade a plan. Each of those is already answered somewhere in the documentation. The problem is not that the answer does not exist; it is that finding it at half past eleven on a Sunday is harder than it should be.

The Faciotech AI Assistant sits on that gap. It appears in the corner of every page, opens with a single tap, and gives an answer in seconds rather than the hours a ticket queue can take outside staffed periods. For the large share of questions that are documentation questions, that is the whole interaction.

“Someone trying to point a subdomain at a new server on a Sunday night should not have to wait until Monday for an answer we have already written down. We built it to hand that answer over in seconds, and to hand the conversation to a person the moment the question stops being one the documentation can settle.”

Urbanus Azupogo, Founder, Faciotech

Answers grounded in Faciotech's own documentation

The assistant does not answer from general internet knowledge. Each question is used to search the Faciotech knowledge base, and the articles it finds are what the reply is built from. Where a full guide exists, the assistant links to it, so a customer can read the authoritative version rather than relying on a summary.

That grounding matters more than raw fluency. An assistant that invents a plausible-sounding control panel path wastes more time than it saves. Tying every answer to a published article keeps the assistant inside what Faciotech has actually documented, and makes it obvious to the customer where the answer came from.

Account and ticket lookups when you are signed in

For customers who are signed in, the assistant goes beyond general guidance. It can look up the services on the account and the status of existing support tickets, so questions like “has anyone replied to my ticket yet?” are answered directly instead of sending the customer off to hunt through the client area. If the conversation needs to become a formal request, the assistant can open a support ticket on the customer's behalf, carrying the details already discussed so nothing has to be typed twice.

Live agent handover is always one tap away

The assistant is built to recognise its own limits. Anything touching account security, billing disputes, data loss or a site that is down is escalated rather than guessed at, and a Talk to an agent button is available in every conversation. Asking for a person in plain language works too: “talk to a human” is treated as an instruction, not a question to answer.

When a conversation is handed over, it is handed over with context. The assistant passes a summary of what has been discussed to the agent picking it up, so the customer does not have to explain the problem a second time. Live handover asks the customer to sign in first, so the agent can see the account rather than working blind. If no agent is available, the conversation can be converted into a support ticket so it is not lost.

Where to find the Faciotech AI Assistant

The assistant appears in the bottom-right corner of every page on faciotech.com, and opens on any device without installing anything. Signed-in customers also reach it from the client area, where account lookups and live agent handover are available. Every published guide it draws on can also be browsed directly in the Faciotech knowledge base, and the support centre lists every other way to reach the team.

Improving with use

Every conversation can be rated, and those ratings are reviewed to find questions the assistant answered badly or could not answer at all. Gaps in the documentation surface quickly that way: a question the assistant repeatedly fails is usually a guide that has not been written yet. Customers with suggestions can open a ticket or raise them through the contact page.
