Optimize

Automation Opportunity Detection

Identify opportunities to automate work and improve efficiency. Impact and confidence scoring pinpoints the highest-value automation candidates. Detects reassignment loops, waiting states, and manual patterns that should be automated.

Core Features

What Optimize delivers out of the box.

1

Automation Opportunity Detection

Automated scanning identifies work patterns ripe for automation. Each opportunity scored by impact (time saved) and confidence (pattern reliability).

  • Impact Score (0-100) measuring time and effort saved
  • Confidence Score measuring pattern reliability
  • Quick Wins identification: high impact, low effort
  • Estimated hours saved per week and month
2

Automation Play Recommendations

Specific, actionable recommendations for how to automate each opportunity. Flow Designer, Assignment Rules, Virtual Agent, Auto-Close, and Business Rules.

  • Flow Designer workflow automation recommendations
  • Assignment rule and routing logic suggestions
  • Virtual Agent chatbot self-service opportunities
  • Auto-close rules for inactivity handling
3

Reassignment Loop Detection

Identify tickets that bounce between groups. Measure the delay, find the common categories, and determine the typical final owner.

  • Loop occurrence count and affected records
  • Average bounces and delay per bounce
  • Total wasted hours from reassignment loops
  • Typical final owner with resolution confidence
4

Waiting State Analysis

Quantify how much of a ticket's lifecycle is spent waiting. Correlate with SLA breaches, reopens, and escalations.

  • Percentage of lifecycle spent in waiting states
  • Median, average, and P90 wait durations
  • SLA breach correlation with wait times
  • Auto-close and reminder candidates

Key Capabilities

Cross-cutting capabilities built into Optimize.

ROI Projections

Every automation opportunity includes estimated hours saved. Build a business case with real data, not guesses.

Actor Classification

Distinguish human, system, flow, integration, and scheduled job actors. Measure your current automation coverage.

Quick Wins

High impact, low effort opportunities surfaced first. Start automating within days, not months.

Pattern Detection

Field-value patterns that predict assignment. Auto-assignment rules write themselves from your historical data.

Bottleneck Elimination

Identify the specific process steps causing delays. Target improvements where they have the most impact.

Effort Estimates

Each recommendation includes an effort estimate: Low, Medium, or High. Plan your automation roadmap realistically.

AI Optimization Insights

AI-generated process improvement summaries with prioritized quick wins and ROI projections via OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini.
