AI-Powered Truly Awaiting Reply

A Smarter Way to Manage Pending Conversations

The AI-Powered Truly Awaiting Reply feature ensures that your team sees only the conversations that genuinely require a response.

Traditional systems often mark chats as “Awaiting Reply” whenever a new message is received — even if the customer is simply saying “Thanks” or “Okay.” This leads to cluttered queues and unnecessary follow-ups.

DoubleTick’s Truly Awaiting Reply solves this problem by using Artificial Intelligence to understand real customer intent and conversation context before marking a chat as pending.


Why This Feature Is Important

In most chat systems, “Awaiting Reply” status is triggered by:

  • Any new incoming message

  • Basic keyword detection

  • Simple rule-based logic

For example:

Customer: “Thanks for the help.” System: Marks the chat as Awaiting Reply

Even though the conversation is complete, the chat appears in the pending queue.

Over time, this creates:

  • A cluttered Awaiting Reply filter

  • Confusion for agents

  • Time wasted reviewing closed conversations

  • Slower response to genuine customer queries

Truly Awaiting Reply eliminates these inaccuracies.


What Is Truly Awaiting Reply?

Truly Awaiting Reply is an AI-driven enhancement to the standard Awaiting Reply indicator inside DoubleTick.

Instead of marking every new message as pending, the system:

  • Understands the flow of the conversation

  • Identifies whether the customer is expecting a response

  • Filters out acknowledgement or closing messages

  • Displays only genuinely actionable chats

This ensures your team focuses only on conversations that require attention.


How It Works

DoubleTick AI analyzes:

  1. The context of the entire conversation

  2. The most recent customer message

  3. The tone and intent behind the message

  4. Whether a response is logically required

The system marks a chat as Awaiting Reply when:

  • The customer asks a question

  • The customer requests support

  • The customer shares a concern

  • The customer is waiting for clarification

The system does NOT mark a chat as Awaiting Reply when:

  • The customer says “Thanks”

  • The customer says “Okay” or “Got it”

  • The customer confirms resolution

  • The conversation has naturally concluded

This intelligent evaluation replaces outdated keyword-based detection.
