The Challenge

Organizations manage complaints and regulatory cases manually through spreadsheets and emails, causing bottlenecks and delays. Companies in regulated industries lack complete audit trails, exposing them to penalties and failed audits. Service providers managing multiple clients deploy separate systems, increasing costs and security risks. Without standardized workflows and real-time visibility, management cannot identify bottlenecks or ensure consistent quality across departments.

Our Solution

The system automates complaint routing and status tracking through defined workflows, reducing manual work by 60–80% and enabling faster response times. AI powers a conversational interface that guides users through complaint creation step-by-step, validates product codes against the database, extracts complaint details from natural language, and suggests priority and severity based on issue descriptions. AI analyzes complaint patterns to identify root causes, detect trends across products and categories, automatically generate monitoring rules for high-risk issues, and provide predictive insights about potential problems. Real-time dashboards provide visibility into complaint volumes, aging cases, and bottlenecks, while AI-powered classification and analysis enable proactive resolution and data-driven decision-making for quality improvement.
