What changes at the school with an AI agent?

What changes is who answers first: the message no longer waits for you and gets answered right away. These are four everyday school situations before and after the CertuAI agent.

What does a conversation handled by the AI look like?

Is an AI agent or manual customer service worth more for language schools?

The agent wins at repetitive tasks, and people keep winning at what takes judgment. With manual service, someone at the school has to stop what they are doing; with the CertuAI agent the answer goes out on its own and you step into the conversation whenever you want.
