## What is tier 1 support automation?

Tier 1 support automation means AI answers the first-line queue: plans, email, DNS, billing, upgrades and account access.

It checks the account in your tools, replies inside your help desk and hands L2 and up to your team with the full story.

## How does AI L1 support work in your help desk?

1. **Connect your help desk.** Your billing panel, client area and help desk through any API, OpenAPI spec or MCP server.
2. **Load your L1 knowledge.** Plans, prices, policies and the answers your team already gives.
3. **Work the L1 queue.** It reads each ticket or chat, checks the account and replies in your help desk.
4. **Escalate L2 with a summary.** A ticket with what it checked and the full transcript.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is tier 1 support?

Tier 1 support, also called L1 or level 1 support, is the first line of help. It covers common questions about plans, email, DNS, billing, upgrades and account access. Harder problems move to tier 2 and tier 3, where specialists work on servers, networks and custom issues.

### What is the difference between L1 and L2 support?

L1 support answers common questions and checks account details. L2 support handles problems that need deeper technical work, such as server faults or changes inside an account. With our AI, L1 is answered in your help desk and L2 arrives with your team already written up.

### How do you automate tier 1 support tickets with AI?

Connect the AI to your help desk and billing panel, load your plans, policies and knowledge base, and set which actions it may take. It then reads each new ticket or chat, checks the account, replies in your help desk and escalates anything outside L1 with a summary.

### Will AI replace my L1 team?

No. It takes the repetitive first-line queue so your team handles work that needs a person. Every escalation arrives with what the AI checked and the conversation, so people pick up where it stopped.

### What happens with L2 issues?

It opens a ticket with what it checked and the transcript. Your team sees the customer's question, the account and domain checks and the full conversation, so nobody has to ask the customer to repeat themselves.

### Is AI L1 support an alternative to outsourced hosting support?

It works differently. The AI answers inside your own help desk, with your knowledge and your rules, around the clock and in 40+ languages. Your team keeps L2 and up, and every handoff carries the full story.

### Does it work with my billing system?

Yes, if it has an API, and we build the connection. Your billing system, client area or help desk can connect through an API, OpenAPI spec or MCP server. WHMCS, Blesta and Zendesk are examples, not limits. We build custom connections and agree the data and actions with your team.
