arrow_backRequests and hand-offs How it works

Sage, the coordinator.

Every deployment includes Sage, at no charge. She is always on.

Sage is a virtual worker who looks after the other workers. She watches every worker, queue and service, balances work between workers, coaches a worker privately mid-conversation, chases promises and requests, and escalates what she cannot settle. She writes reports and briefs your team each morning and evening. When a person asks, she does what that person can do, within the delegation they set. She never talks to customers, and she never presses the stop switch.

What she does

Eight jobs, with Northcott examples.

At Northcott Fluid Power, Sage looks after five workers: Morgan, Avery, Riley, Quinn and Jordan.

JobWhat she doesAt Northcott
WatchesEvery worker, queue and service, around the clock.Sees Morgan's queue grow while Avery's is empty.
BalancesStarts and stops clones within each worker's limit, and moves waiting items between workers that share a queue.Starts Morgan-3 when three inbound chats arrive at once.
CoachesSends a worker a private note mid-conversation when it goes off track.Maria Delgado is frustrated about the price. Sage tells Morgan, mid-chat: “Acknowledge the distributor price before you raise it with Sam.” Maria's mood recovers to neutral.
ChasesChecks due dates, promised callbacks and open requests, and reminds whoever owns them.Reminds Sam Ortega at 13:30 that Maria expects his answer by 14:00.
EscalatesSends what she cannot settle to the human supervisor at once.A flagged conversation, a stuck item, an unhealthy clone, a service down.
Acts for a personDoes what that person can do in CVW, when they ask, within the delegation they set."Sage, approve Maria's price at 228."
Writes reportsOn request or on a schedule, checked against a rubric.The weekly activity and value report, every Monday.
Briefs the teamA morning brief and an end-of-day summary, and answers questions in chat."What's slipping today?"
A day with Sage

A Wednesday at Northcott, from Sage's activity.

What Sage did, and what she asked of Sam Ortega, the inside sales lead. Most lines need nothing from Sam. Two need a decision.

Her limits

What she does alone, and what she never does.

Your administrators set what Sage does alone and what she asks first.

On her own

  • Watches, balances, coaches, chases and escalates.
  • Writes reports and briefs the team.
  • Can pause one clone that keeps failing, and tells the human supervisor at once.

Never

  • Talks to customers. The workers do.
  • Presses the stop switch. It is never delegated to her: a person presses it.
  • Changes the definition, prices, formulas or permissions on her own initiative.
  • Does more for a person than that person can do.
Delegation

Each person decides what Sage may do for them.

Delegation is set by group of actions. For each group, Sage may do it when asked, must confirm with the person first, or never does it. Here is how Sam might set his.

Group of actionsSam's settingWhat happens
Decide requestsWhen askedSam says "approve Maria's price at 228", and Sage approves it.
Manage workWhen askedSage adds, stops or reassigns items when Sam asks.
Control workersConfirm firstSage checks with Sam before she switches a worker, changes its mode or sets its clones.
Accept lessonsConfirm firstSage shows Sam the lesson and waits for his yes.
Change settingsNeverSage does not change settings for Sam, even when he asks.
history
Everything is on the record. Whatever Sage does for a person is recorded as done by Sage for that person.
Always on

A worker like the others, with no off switch.

Sage has no on/off switch and no working hours. Only the stop switch stops her. She runs one clone.

chat

Her own chat

Ask her a question, such as "What's slipping today?", or give her an instruction. She carries it out within your delegation.

Notes and activity

Like any worker, she has her own notes file and her own activity stream, so you can see what she did and when.

Actions taken, coaching given and escalations, over the same time windows as any worker's scorecard.

Reports

Sage writes your reports and checks each one.

Each report type is defined by a template, instructions, guidelines, a rubric and an executive summary template.

Asked or scheduledBy a person, in chat, from an AI assistant, or on a schedule such as every Monday.
