The Automated Engine

Automate triage, enforce compliance, and eliminate manual work. By the end of this track you will have teams organized, triggers routing issues automatically, and dashboards replacing gut feel.

01

Organize your Teams

Before automating routing, Pylon needs to know your team structure. Group people by function, segment, or product area.

  • Customer Success, Engineering, Billing
  • Enterprise Support vs SMB Support
  • One person can belong to multiple teams

How Teams power routing and reporting

Teams control routing, views, and reporting. You can be as broad as "Support" or as specific as "Enterprise CS – APAC". Because one person can belong to multiple teams, complex org structures are easy to model — a senior engineer can sit in both Engineering and an Enterprise Escalations team without duplication.

Every team gets its own Saved View, its own round-robin assignment pool, and its own slice of the Analytics dashboard, making it easy for team leads to see exactly how their group is performing.

02

Build routing Triggers

This is where manual triage dies. Triggers auto-route issues to the right team based on AI categorization, keywords, or account tier.

  • Question Type = Bug → assign to Engineering
  • Account Tier = Enterprise → assign to Enterprise CS
  • No assignment after 5 min → round-robin to on-call

With AI Assistants, use AI prompts to route issues to the right team based on topic Add-on

AI Assistants let you write plain-language prompts that classify incoming issues by topic and automatically route them to the relevant team -- no manual triage needed. Set up rules like "if the issue is about billing, assign to Finance" and let the AI handle the rest.

How Triggers eliminate manual triage

Triggers are Pylon's automation layer. Each trigger has conditions — Question Type, Account Tier, keyword, source channel — and actions like assigning to a team, setting priority, or adding a tag. They fire in order, and only the first matching trigger runs.

The practical result: from the moment an issue lands, it's categorized, prioritized, and routed with no human intervention. Teams that fully implement Triggers typically reduce manual triage to under 5% of incoming volume.

03

Set up Analytics dashboards

You can't improve what you can't measure. Build dashboards that give team leads real-time visibility into operational health.

  • SLA compliance rate and trends
  • Volume by category, team, and channel
  • Response time and resolution time distributions

What to build first in Analytics

Start with two dashboards: SLA compliance by team (where are targets being missed?) and volume over time (is the issue load growing?). From there you can drill into response time distributions, team-level throughput, and channel breakdowns.

Data updates in near-real-time, so team leads can check in during a busy period and see exactly what's in flight — no end-of-week reporting lag.
