Repairs and specialist services: AI enquiry assistant for roller shutter service companies
An AI enquiry assistant for roller shutter service companies that answers questions on manual operation, switches and simple faults from your own explanations, and refers to an engineer where needed.
Which questions roller shutter service companies keep getting.
Many questions put to roller shutter service companies are not about a broken motor but about operation. How do I pair the remote again, why does the shutter stop after I have used it many times in a row, how do I crank a shutter up when the power is out? These questions arrive in the evening and at weekends, when nobody answers the phone. The resident then waits for a call back or starts experimenting and makes things worse, for example by forcing the strap. At the same time an answer must never give engineer-level advice about opening a box or setting end limits, because that can cause damage or danger.

From question to answer or colleague.
Gather approved guidance
The assistant only uses sources you have released: operating instructions for the motors you install, explanations of manual operation by strap or crank and the answers the office currently gives by phone. Anything not in those sources, it does not answer. You see and manage the list of sources yourselves.
Understand the question and situation
The assistant asks follow-up questions where needed: is it a motorised or manual shutter, does it do nothing at all or stop halfway? Based on that it picks the matching piece of guidance. The answer only covers steps a resident can safely take, such as waiting for an overheated motor to cool down.
Answer or hand over
If the question cannot be answered from approved guidance, or the resident describes something that points to a defect, the assistant says so and passes the question on as a report. The office receives the conversation with it, so the resident does not have to repeat the story. The assistant never promises an appointment or a price.
On your own information, with a person behind it.
The assistant sits on the website and optionally in the customer portal, next to the existing contact form and phone number. Reports it passes on land in the same list as those from the form. Manufacturer manuals remain the property of the manufacturer; we only use them where you are allowed to and want to. You decide which answers are approved and who in the office picks up the questions passed on.
General guidance or per motor type
General guidance on manual operation and remotes covers many questions, but the steps to pair a transmitter differ by manufacturer. Guidance per motor type gives better answers but needs more upkeep. Start with the types you install most and have the assistant refer other types to the office.
Report straight away or try first
Some faults clear after a short wait or a check of the circuit breaker. An assistant that mentions those steps first avoids needless call-outs. But someone who has already tried everything gets annoyed hearing the same tips again. So the assistant asks what has been tried and passes the question on directly when in doubt.
Only out of hours or always on
An assistant active only in the evening and at weekends catches questions when nobody is reachable. During the day the phone number can take the lead. Always on means simple questions get faster answers during the day too, provided the office picks up handed-over questions promptly and residents know when to expect a reply.

Read the storyWhat the AI assistant may answer.
The assistant answers questions about manual operation, pairing transmitters for the motors you install most and what to do when a shutter stops halfway; everything else becomes a report. We put those explanations in order with you at the start. Together we hold it against an ordinary question about a crank, and a resident describing slats hanging out of the guide and asking how to push them back. More sources can be added based on the questions that were handed over.

Explore pricing and optionsCan the assistant book an appointment by itself?
No. It can pass on a report with the fault symptom and the resident's details, but the planner decides when an engineer comes. The resident is told the office will be in touch. That way no times are promised that do not fit the schedule.
What if the assistant gives a wrong answer?
It only answers from sources you have approved and, when in doubt, opts for a handover rather than an answer. You can read back conversations and adjust a source if an answer was unclear. A note from a resident that something was not right reaches the office.
Will the assistant advise on opening a shutter box?
No. Opening a box, setting end limits and working on the axle are jobs for an engineer. If a resident asks about them, the assistant explains that this is engineer's work and offers to create a report using the details already known.
Can we see which questions are asked most often?
Yes. Conversations are grouped by topic, so it becomes clear what residents ask about most. That helps improve the explanations on the website or at the handover of a new shutter, for example with a short instruction on the remote.
