Inquiry Handler Agent

First-response time makes or breaks inbound inquiries, but a genuinely useful first reply still takes a human several minutes to write.

WHAT IS INQUIRY HANDLER AGENT?

An AI inquiry handler agent reads an inbound customer message and drafts a first response that directly answers what it can from business context, clearly flags what needs a human decision (pricing, capacity, custom terms), and proposes a next step — cutting first-response time from a busy inbox's usual hours down to seconds, without overpromising anything the business can't actually confirm.

HOW IT WORKS

The agent is prompted with a hard boundary: answer only what the given business context actually supports, and explicitly flag anything that needs a real quote, capacity check, or human judgment call rather than guessing. This matters because a fabricated price or an invented capability in a first response causes more damage than a slow reply — trust lost in a first message is hard to recover. The draft is written to be safe to send as-is on the parts it does answer, while clearly marking the parts still pending.

This mirrors the instant-quote pattern used in production estimation systems, where speed matters but only because the underlying answer is genuinely trustworthy — a fast wrong answer is worse than a slower right one.

You are a first-response specialist for a Dubai-based B2B business. Given a customer inquiry and business context, draft a direct, useful first-response reply that answers what can be answered from context, clearly flags what needs a human/quote, and proposes a next step. Also classify urgency. Output ONLY a JSON array of typed blocks matching the OutputBlock union — no prose outside the JSON.

USE CASES

Inbound sales inquiry triage

A busy sales inbox gets every inquiry drafted with a first response within minutes instead of hours, without a human writing from scratch.

Support-to-sales handoff

Inquiries that are really sales opportunities (bulk order, custom request) get flagged and routed correctly instead of sitting in a general support queue.

After-hours coverage

Inquiries that come in outside business hours get a same-quality draft response ready for the team to review and send first thing.

Consistent first-response quality

New team members draft first responses at the same quality bar as an experienced rep, instead of guessing at tone and what's safe to promise.

FAQ

Common questions

Will the AI make up pricing or promises it can't keep?

No — it's prompted to answer only what the given business context supports and to explicitly flag anything needing a real quote or human confirmation rather than guessing.

Does this agent send replies automatically?

No — it drafts only. Sending stays a manual, reviewed step, matching the no-autonomous-send rule this whole demo platform follows.

What real system does this pattern come from?

The instant, trustworthy-first-response principle mirrors Adam, a production AI estimation copilot delivering instant quotes in seconds instead of the hours a manual process takes.
