Human Handover allows your team to take control of a conversation when the AI agent identifies a complex query or when a user specifically requests human assistance. This ensures that your customers always receive the highest level of support.

Once enabled, you can monitor and participate in conversations requiring human intervention.

Viewing Active Handovers

All conversations that have been handed over to humans can be found in the Conversations section.

Taking Over a Conversation

When you select a conversation from the My Handover list:
  • The AI agent stops responding to that specific user automatically.
  • You can type your messages in the chat box at the bottom and click the Send icon.
  • The user will receive your messages directly, allowing for a personalized support experience.

Ending a Handover

Once the user’s query has been resolved, you should close the handover session to allow the AI to take back control or to mark the session as completed.
  • Click the End Handover button located at the top right of the conversation window.
  • This will return the conversation to the AI agent (if configured) or simply close the active human intervention.
Before ending a handover, check the Session Summary on the right sidebar to ensure all user concerns have been addressed.

Handover Analytics

Monitor your team’s performance and understand how often human intervention is required through the Handover Analytics dashboard. Navigate to Analytics > Handover to view detailed metrics:
  • Total Handovers: Total number of times a human took over a conversation.
  • Pending: Handovers currently waiting for an agent to respond.
  • In Progress: Conversations currently being handled by human agents.
  • Completed: Successfully resolved handover sessions.
  • Agent Performance: A breakdown of how each team member is performing, including resolution times and customer ratings.

Regularly reviewing handover analytics helps you identify common “bottlenecks” where the AI might need better training or revised prompts.
