Editor's Summary · AI Customer Support Agent Software
The buying question here is what the agent is allowed to do. Forethought, Maven AGI and Parloa run multi-agent systems that triage, resolve and QA across chat, email and voice — broad coverage suited to established support organisations. Lorikeet takes the narrower, harder path: complex multi-step issues in fintech and healthtech where an agent must follow a compliance-bound procedure exactly and hand off cleanly when it cannot.
Watch how vendors quote results. Resolution rate against simple tier-one volume is not comparable to resolution rate across a full queue, and every number on these sites is vendor-reported.

How to choose AI Customer Support Agent Software
Separate deflection from resolution before comparing vendors: containing a ticket is not solving it. If your queue is mostly repetitive tier-one questions, broad platforms will cover it. If your issues involve money, health data or multi-step procedures, prioritise agents built for controlled workflows with clean escalation. Insist on a pilot measured against your own ticket mix instead of a vendor benchmark.
