Kiko answers your customers on WhatsApp, your website and Telegram straight away, including after office hours and on weekends. It looks up orders and bookings, opens a case for a refund or a complaint, and hands the chat to your team when a person is needed.

## How Kiko handles support

- **Answers the everyday questions**: Opening hours, delivery slots, prices, how to reschedule, from your own website and documents, with the page or file each answer came from.
- **Looks up orders and bookings**: Connect your order database and Kiko tells the customer where their order is, read-only.
- **Opens a case when it needs a decision**: Refunds, damaged items and service complaints become cases with a reference; your team approves the reply before it goes out.
- **Hands off to a person**: When the customer asks for someone, or your knowledge doesn't cover it, the chat goes to your shared inbox with the whole conversation.
- **Covers evenings and weekends**: Customers who message after hours still get an answer; anything that needs your team waits under “Needs you” for the morning.

## A sample conversation: A late servicing question, handed to the team

A customer messages at night about a missed aircon servicing. Kiko checks the booking and, when the customer asks for someone, passes the chat to the team for the morning.

- **Customer**: Eh your technician never come today leh. Booking CA-2291
- **Kiko**: Sorry about that! Booking CA-2291 was for today 2pm to 4pm and shows as missed. I can offer Thursday 10am or Friday 3pm instead. (Thursday 10am / Talk to someone)
- **Customer**: Talk to someone
- *Handed to your team*
- **Team**: Morning! This is Wei Ling from CoolAir. So sorry about yesterday, we'll waive the service fee. Is Thursday 10am ok?

CoolAir Services, Jurong is a sample business; the names and prices are made up.

## Support for customers in Singapore

Singapore customers expect a quick, polite answer on WhatsApp, often outside office hours. Kiko gives every customer that and saves your team for the chats that need judgement.

- **Weekend and night messages**: Plenty of service requests come in after work and on weekends. Kiko answers them then, instead of a Monday-morning backlog.
- **A small team, every channel**: WhatsApp, website chat and Telegram land in one inbox, so two or three people can cover everything.
- **Clear English, whatever the customer writes**: Customers can write in Singlish, Chinese or Malay; Kiko answers in their language or in clear English if you prefer.
- **Photos and documents in the chat**: Customers can send a photo of the problem or a receipt; it stays on the case for your team.
