Using AI to triage guest requests means incoming messages get automatically categorized and prioritized — a broken AC flagged as urgent, a WiFi question flagged as routine — before a staff member even opens the conversation. In **Jestor**, this is part of what **AI Agents** do: read, categorize, and route.

Not every guest message deserves the same urgency, but without triage, staff have to read every message in order to figure that out — which delays the ones that actually need immediate attention.

## What manual triage costs guest service teams

- Urgent issues sitting in the same queue as routine questions, undifferentiated
- Staff reading every message just to determine what actually needs priority
- Inconsistent urgency judgment depending on who's reading the message
- No automatic escalation path for genuinely urgent guest issues

## How AI-assisted triage works

- An **AI agent** reads incoming guest messages and can categorize by type and urgency
- Sentiment or urgency tagging can happen automatically, based on the message content
- Urgent categories can trigger immediate staff notification, bypassing the normal queue
- Routine requests can be handled by the agent directly, or queued normally for staff

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Triage happens automatically, before staff time is spent reading every message
- Urgent issues get flagged and escalated consistently, not dependent on who's reading
- Combines with **human-in-the-loop**, so staff stay in control of anything beyond routine
- The same triage logic applies across WhatsApp or any other connected channel

| Guest request type            | AI triage response                    |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Urgent (broken AC, lockout)   | Flagged, immediate staff notification |
| Routine (WiFi, check-in time) | Handled or queued normally            |
