CEO of QueryPal, Dev Nag - AITech Interview

Dev, can you start by sharing the journey that led you to establish QueryPal and what inspired you to focus on transforming customer support through AI-powered ticket automation?

The journey to QueryPal began with my experiences at Google and PayPal, where I saw firsthand the challenges of scaling customer support. I realized that while AI was transforming many industries, customer support remained largely unchanged. The inspiration came from seeing how Large Language Models (LLMs) could understand and generate human-like text. I knew we could leverage this technology to revolutionize customer support, making it more efficient and effective. QueryPal was born from the vision of creating an AI system that could understand customer inquiries at a deep level and provide accurate, helpful responses at scale.

In the realm of ticket automation, how has AI contributed to speeding up the process of identifying customer issues and predicting effective solutions?

AI has revolutionized ticket automation by enabling real-time, intelligent issue classification. Our system can instantly categorize incoming tickets based on content, urgency, and required expertise. Furthermore, by analyzing patterns in historical data, our AI can predict potential solutions and even proactively suggest them to customers before they encounter problems. This predictive capability significantly reduces resolution times and improves first-contact resolution rates. We’re working on integrating real-time API access with function calling, which we believe will be a game-changer. Once implemented, when a customer inquires about billing or licensing issues, our AI could directly access relevant account information and incorporate it into the response draft. This has the potential to not only speed up the process of identifying and solving customer issues but also reduce the workload on human agents.

Data privacy is a major concern in customer support. How does QueryPal address the challenges of handling sensitive customer information while ensuring robust security?

Data privacy is at the core of QueryPal’s design. We employ state-of-the-art encryption for data in transit and at rest. Our system is built on a principle of data minimization, only accessing and processing the information necessary for each specific task. We’ve also implemented advanced anonymization techniques and strict access controls. Additionally, we’re fully compliant with major security frameworks like SOC 2.

With your background in both technology and customer service, how do you see the integration of AI transforming these industries in the coming years?

The integration of AI in customer service and technology is set to create a paradigm shift. In the near future, I see AI handling the vast majority of routine inquiries, freeing human agents to focus on complex, high-value interactions with strategic accounts. We’ll see a move towards predictive and proactive support, where AI systems anticipate and solve problems before they occur. The role of human agents will evolve to become more strategic, focusing on relationship building and handling nuanced situations that require empathy and complex decision-making. Human agents will be elevated to a concierge-like role.
