New capabilities by Zendesk boost AI Agents, Employee Service, and CCaaS with smarter automation, better collaboration, and deeper insights – delivering outcomes businesses and customers want.
Zendesk, the AI service provider, has announced new AI innovation at its AI Summit, designed to strengthen its Resolution Platform.
In response to increasingly complex and high-volume customer and employee interactions, Zendesk’s complete AI-first solution – purpose-built for service – empowers Customer Service, Employee Service and Contact Centre teams with the capabilities to resolve issues more efficiently and deliver better outcomes.
The Resolution Platform powers AI Agents that handle a major portion of nearly 5 billion issues resolved annually, reaching more channels and customers than any other solution.
These agents outperform legacy systems and traditional bots by effortlessly managing complex, multi-step problems using advanced LLMs like GPT-5 and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for instant data access, streamlining workflows and accelerating problem resolution.
