What is Quick Reply?

Quick Reply is a cloud service that supports the accumulation and utilization of business knowledge with AI. The system has four features—FAQ registration, FAQ search, training data registration, and FAQ/training data management—and can improve operational efficiency with minimal burden, without changing the existing e-mail environment. By providing a mechanism that enables on-site personnel to accumulate and utilize knowledge, the system reduces the burden of AI operations, such as the scrutiny of business knowledge, checking of correct and incorrect answers by AI, and registration of training data, which have tended to be concentrated on system administrators in the past. It also enables speedy registration and maintenance of business knowledge required in the field.

Issues in utilizing business knowledge

  • Many times in the past, the same question has been
    answered
  • For response, past email history
    is searched and referenced
  • When responding to inquiries
    specific experts need to be consulted.
  • Busy with daily operations,
    no time to create a business knowledge base.

It is necessary to organize and accumulate valid inquiry/response data to utilize business knowledge. However, the workload will increase if accumulation becomes the objective, hence it is necessary to create a mechanism for accumulation without burdening the workflow. In addition, multiple people involved in the operations should be able to reference the accumulated knowledge, and a system must be in place to allow easy utilization of the knowledge.
