Why it works

Businesses collect massive amounts of support data but rarely analyze it systematically. AI can categorize thousands of tickets instantly, but the strategic insight — recognizing that a spike in 'login issues' actually means a UX problem, not a technical bug — requires human pattern recognition that connects support data to product decisions.
