To **run a service desk with AI**, the agent has to do more than answer. Handling a request end to end means classifying it, replying, updating the record, and closing it when the requester is satisfied.

## What partial automation leaves behind

Answering is one step of five.

- Someone still classifying and prioritizing
- Someone still setting status and owner
- Someone still noticing the issue was resolved
- Someone still closing the record

## What end-to-end handling covers

| Step               | The agent's role                        |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------- |
| **Arrival**        | Reads the message and any attachments   |
| **Classification** | Sets category, priority, and status     |
| **Response**       | Answers from the knowledge base         |
| **Follow-up**      | Continues the conversation with context |
| **Closure**        | Closes when the requester confirms      |

## How to set it up in Jestor

1. Route requests into a pipeline in **Jestor** from email, forms, and **WhatsApp**.
2. Attach documentation to the agent as its knowledge base.
3. Select the fields it may edit — status, priority, category, resolution date.
4. Add a confirmation checkbox on any step that would be hard to reverse.
5. Add a classification field recording how much the agent contributed.

## Why choose Jestor for service desk automation?

**Jestor** lets the agent handle the full cycle within one configuration, with the boundary enforced by field permissions rather than by instructions.

Because it classifies its own contribution, the share of volume handled without a person is measurable — which is what justifies expanding to another process.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Can the agent close a request?

Yes, once the requester confirms resolution. See [jestor.com](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com).

### Can I add a human checkpoint?

Yes, with a confirmation checkbox.

### Can I measure its share?

Yes, through a classification field.
