Journeys overview

AI Journey Builder

Design complete journey experiences in minutes, not hours.
Describe your workflow in plain language and let AI do the work.
All integrated directly into Zendesk.

Natural Language Design

Describe your process in plain English. The AI interprets your workflow and generates a structured journey with phases, actions, and interactive cards.

Smart Phase Detection

AI analyzes your existing ticket data and workflows to suggest optimal journey phases, identifying bottlenecks and common paths automatically.

Auto-Generated Messaging

Customer-facing descriptions, status updates, and milestone notifications, written by AI, refined by you. Consistent tone, every journey.

From description to journey in seconds

Tell the AI what your workflow looks like and it builds the journey structure for you. Review, adjust, and publish, all without leaving Zendesk.

  1. 1 Describe your workflow or paste an existing process document
  2. 2 AI generates phases, cards, and customer messaging, and Zendesk Actions
  3. 3 Review and fine-tune in the visual journey editor
  4. 4 Publish and start tracking progress immediately
