The Unified Contact Center is here

A new AI-first contact center that resolves common questions on its own, escalates with full context, and never loses a caller.

Today we're launching the Unified Contact Center — a phone-based support module built for the questions prospective and current students actually call about.

The AI assistant resolves common questions end to end. When a human is needed, it escalates with the full transcript and caller context, and a callback fallback means no one waits on hold.

New features

AI-resolved common queries

Unified Contact Center

The assistant answers routine questions from your knowledge base and live records, deflecting the calls that don't need a person.

Escalation with full context

Unified Contact Center

When the assistant hands off, the agent sees the transcript, the caller's identity, and the reason for escalation — no repeating.

Callback fallback

Unified Contact Center

Instead of holding, callers can request a callback that preserves their place in line.

Rule-based routing

Unified Contact Center

Route calls to the right department by topic, hours, and holiday calendar with a visual rule builder.

Live monitor and analytics

Analytics

Supervisors watch active calls in real time and review resolution, deflection, and handle-time trends.

Enhancements

Knowledge curation for the assistant

Knowledge Base

Admins curate exactly which articles the assistant may answer from, with per-article review.
