I'm Launching a New A.I. SaaS đ (...Here's Why!)
Overcoming Customer Support Challenges with A.I.
Over the past six months, my team and I faced a massive challenge that was putting my business at risk. I realized I wasnât alone in this struggle.
We turned to A.I. for a solution, and I'm beyond excited to share that solution with you.
Introducing Aidbase
â Aidbase is an AI-powered support ecosystem designed to provide your users with an outstanding customer experienceâon autopilot.
The Challenge We Faced
Our support emails were flooding in faster than I could possibly manage. The situation was only getting worse, and I needed a solutionâfast! Letâs rewind a bit:
- Twitter's New API Prices: We had to announce that our products would discontinue integration within hours. Live chat was on fire, and not in a good way.
- Support Team Stress: Three agents were doing their best, but it became excruciating. Within three weeks, the first agent resigned due to the overwhelming workload.
- More Resignations: Soon after, the second agent followed, leaving just one agent and me to handle the deluge of messages.
I tried to create articles for common concerns, but as long as the live chat icon was on our site, users would use it. If replies took more than five minutes, it was a bad experience. Eventually, I made a tough call and let my last support agent go.
A Desperate Solution
The notification sound from our chat software was haunting me. I removed the live chat from our app and website thinking it would ease the tension. Surprisingly, it didâtemporarilyâuntil the support emails started flooding in again.
The Aha Moment
I had an idea! One of our features was a chatbot that helps create content for social media. What if I transformed this chatbot into an AI support assistant? After two weeks of hard work, I realized I needed more than just a chatbotâ I had to build a complete support system.

Final Thoughts
If youâre a founder with successâbig or smallâyouâve likely faced similar challenges. If youâre using live chat now and struggling to keep up, I advise you to remove it. Studies show that failing to respond within five minutes is worse than not having a live chat at all.
