FAQ Support

What exactly is GenChat and how does it benefit our organisation?

GenChat is an AI-powered "virtual agent" specifically designed for organisations to automate interactions via WhatsApp. It handles high-volume, repetitive Tier 1 queries—such as billing questions, schedules, and service requests — which typically deflect 40% to 70% of manual support tickets. This allows staff to focus on complex tasks while customers receive instant responses 24/7..

How does the AI ensure the information it provides is accurate?

The system utilizes Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), which grounds the AI's responses in specific, verified organisational data sources. Unlike general AI, GenChat is designed to provide verifiable answers linked directly to your uploaded documentation, significantly reducing the risk of "hallucinations" or incorrect information.

Can customers perform actual tasks, like checking account balances or reporting faults?

Yes. Through "AI Actions" and secure API orchestration, the chatbot can trigger external backend processes. It can securely fetch real-time data from financial or CRM systems (e.g., account statements) or collect structured data and photos to report infrastructure issues.

Why is WhatsApp used as the primary platform?

WhatsApp is the most accessible channel for the South African population, used by 93% of active social media users. It requires no additional app downloads, which is critical for citizens with limited device storage or digital literacy. Furthermore, the WhatsApp Business API (WABA) supports interactive features like buttons and list menus to make the user experience effortless.

Is the service available in different languages?

GenChat supports multiple languages, enabling organisations to serve diverse linguistic communities effectively. This ensures that language is not a barrier to accessing essential government services.

What happens if the AI cannot answer a user's question?

The system includes "Escalate to Human" logic . If the AI reaches a complexity threshold or the customer requests a person, the bot creates a ticket or transfers the conversation to a human agent via an integrated CRM (like Zendesk or Salesforce), providing the full chat context so the customer does not have to repeat themselves.
