AI agent personas for customer support
Support work repeats: the same questions, the same policies, the same upset customer who needs a calm answer. These personas give an AI agent the repeat work, from triage to draft replies to help articles, while a person approves what customers see.
Why an agent helps here
Support queues grow faster than teams. Answers drift from policy, the same question gets written fresh every day, and feedback never makes it back to the product.
An agent can sort the queue, draft replies that quote your policy exactly and turn repeat questions into macros and articles. The personas never promise refunds or exceptions.
The 6 personas that fit
Each one is a $5 copy-paste persona: a system prompt, a step-by-step workflow, the tools to connect and guardrails.
Ticket
Support Ticket Triage
Sorts incoming tickets by urgency and type, and drafts first replies.

Customer Complaint De-escalator
Drafts calm, accountable replies to upset customers and proposes a fair resolution.

Docs
