Customer
“Hey — my Slack agent stopped firing after I rotated the workspace token yesterday. Anything I need to do on my end?”
Agent draft · in your tone
Hi Lara — totally normal, the new token needs a quick re-auth. I've sent a one-click reconnect link to your DeskFerry inbox; once you tap it the agent will pick up where it left off (no re-training needed).
How does Big Cartel work for Chat Support automation?
Big Cartel works for Chat Support automation by powering a DeskFerry agent that runs the workflow end-to-end inside your existing tools — no code, no custom build.
- 01
Trigger fires
The agent connects to Big Cartel alongside the other apps your team already uses, watches for the triggers that matter for Chat Support, and takes the next step on its own while keeping a complete audit trail for review.
- 02
Answer live @Intercom chats using @Big Cartel in our brand voice
AI handles common questions immediately, reducing wait times to zero for routine inquiries.
- 03
Escalate the rest with full context to @Zendesk
Teams typically see instant around the clock once the agent is in production.
- 04
You approve
You stay in control: every action is logged, confidence thresholds are configurable, and anything ambiguous is queued for a human instead of being silently auto-completed.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.
