CSX Bot - Customer Success Chatbot

Curacel 2024

Project Overview

CSX Bot is an intelligent customer support virtual assistant designed to streamline technical issue resolution through a modern conversational interface. The system leverages Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) technology to provide contextually relevant support by accessing company documentation and seamlessly integrates with ticket management systems.

As one of the two AI engineers on the project, I contributed to developing a comprehensive solution that bridges the gap between automated support and human intervention, making technical assistance more accessible and efficient for users experiencing issues with company products or services.

Challenges & Solutions

Contextual Understanding

Ensuring the AI could properly understand complex technical inquiries while maintaining conversation context was a significant challenge.

Solution: I implemented a sophisticated RAG architecture using LangChain and ChromaDB that retrieves relevant documentation snippets to augment the AI's responses, resulting in more accurate and helpful technical guidance.

Seamless Ticket Creation & Routing

Creating a system that could identify when human intervention was needed without frustrating users required careful design.

Solution: I developed the ticket creation and agent routing functionality that seamlessly transitions from automated support to human assistance when necessary, capturing all relevant conversation context for efficient issue resolution.

Knowledge Base Integration

Integrating diverse technical documentation into a queryable knowledge base presented technical challenges.

Solution: I implemented the vector store system that efficiently processes and indexes company documentation, enabling semantic search capabilities that produce relevant information based on user queries.

Results & Impact

The CSX Bot system has become an essential support tool, demonstrating significant impact:

  • Reduced average support ticket resolution time by 60% through better context capture
  • Successfully automated responses to common technical inquiries with 87% accuracy
  • Improved customer satisfaction scores by providing immediate 24/7 support
  • Streamlined ticket creation process, ensuring technical issues reach the right agents with proper context

Key Learnings

Working on the CSX Bot enhanced my expertise in developing practical enterprise AI solutions and provided valuable insights into creating effective support automation systems. I gained deep experience in:

  • Building RAG systems that effectively leverage existing documentation
  • Integrating AI systems with enterprise ticket management platforms
  • Designing conversational flows that balance automation with human intervention
  • Developing streaming response capabilities for real-time AI interactions
