- Billing (usage, upgrades, discounts)
- Ticketing (Zendesk, Jira Service Mgmt., Freshdesk, etc.)
- DevOps/Oncall (PagerDuty, Opsgenie), Status (Statuspage)
- Repo/Issues (GitHub, Jira), Release Notes
- SSO/Identity, Guardrail (policies), Memory Store, Human Handoff
- Channel Nodes: Web/in-app chat, Slack, MS Teams, WhatsApp, Email
- Workflow Nodes: Email/webhook triggers, ticket create/update, broadcast, escalation, audit, CSAT/NPS survey
Common Use Case Flows
Below are step-by-step examples of how teams and users interact with MChatbot:
1. Product/Plan Discovery & Guided Trial
Where: Website or in-app
How it works:
- User selects "Find the right plan"
- Bot asks about team size or needs
- Suggests a matching plan
- Offers to start a trial, captures details in CRM, sends link and welcome email
Sample Chat:
- User: “We’re a 15‑person startup needing SSO.”
- Bot: “Pro plan fits your needs. Ready to start a 14-day trial?”
- User: “Yes.”
- Bot: “Here’s your trial link. Want quick onboarding help?”
Result: Self-serve sales assist for higher conversion.
2. In-App Onboarding & Interactive Product Tours
Where: In your SaaS app (web chat/in-app widget)
How it works:
- On first login, bot offers a guided setup
- Walks users through key actions (e.g., invite team, connect integrations)
- Optionally applies default settings automatically
- Collects quick feedback and shares helpful docs
Sample Chat:
- User: “How do I invite my team?”
- Bot: “Go to Settings → Team. Would you like me to send invites now?”
Result: Faster, smoother onboarding and user activation.
3. Support Triage & Deflection
Where: Website or Slack support
How it works:
- User asks about a problem (“Can’t connect to API” or “401 auth error”)
- Bot analyzes and suggests fixes from your help guides
- If unresolved, can auto-create detailed support tickets and attach logs
- Option for human escalation
Sample Chat:
- User: “401 errors on auth.”
- Bot: “This may be a token scope issue. Try regenerating with ‘read:orders’. Should I create a support ticket?”
Result: Users get answers instantly; actual tickets only when needed.
4. Incident Response & Escalation (Internal SRE/DevOps)
Where: Slack or Teams for internal ops
How it works:
- PagerDuty or monitoring alert triggers the chat
- Bot summarizes incident and links runbooks
- Can create incident tickets in Jira/GitHub, update Statuspage
- Coordinates resolution steps and posts follow-up survey
Sample Chat:
- Bot: “High latency detected in US‑East. Should I apply autoscaling runbook?”
- Engineer: “Yes, and open Jira ticket.”
Result: Faster MTTA/MTTR and standardized incident workflows.
5. Status Updates & Maintenance Broadcasts
Where: Email, WhatsApp, Statuspage
How it works:
- Schedule planned maintenance or notify outages
- Bot identifies affected accounts from CRM
- Sends proactive updates and closure notifications across channels
Sample Message:
- “We’re performing maintenance 22:00–23:00 UTC. Service may be unavailable. You’ll be notified when complete.”
Result: Reduces confusion and ticket surges during incidents.
6. Billing, Usage, and Upgrades
Where: Chat in web app or email
How it works:
- User checks plan/usage or asks about upgrades
- Bot retrieves current plan, usage, and promo options (e.g., 10% off)
- Can send checkout/payment links and confirm changes
Sample Chat:
- User: “We hit limits. What are the options?”
- Bot: “Upgrade to Pro for SSO and higher limits. 10% off this week. Want the checkout link?”
Result: Simplifies expansion and billing questions.
7. Renewal Outreach & Feedback
Where: Email, WhatsApp (for renewals)
How it works:
- 30 days before renewal, bot reaches out
- Recaps value, confirms renewal contact, checks for blockers
- Can escalate to Customer Success if needed
Sample Chat:
- Bot: “Renewal is in 30 days — extend now for 12% discount?”
Result: Improved retention and proactive risk handling.
8. Security & Compliance Q&A
Where: Website or email
How it works:
- User asks about certifications (SOC2, HIPAA, etc.)
- Bot provides accurate, approved answers from your docs
- Gated docs can require contact info; sales notified for follow-up
Sample Chat:
- User: “HIPAA support?”
- Bot: “We’re not a HIPAA Business Associate, but we offer encryption-at-rest/in-transit, SSO, and SCIM.”
Result: Users get clear, compliant info every time.
Best Practices & Notes
- Use official copy for security/compliance answers
- Avoid sharing personal/sensitive info in chat replies
- Respect user opt-in/opt-out for notifications and message channels
Metrics to Monitor
- Website-to-trial conversion rate
- Ticket deflection and first-response time
- Incident response speed (MTTA/MTTR)
- Expansion/renewal (NRR) and CSAT/NPS
