AI-Powered Chat Support Escalation with Human Assistance via Slack

This workflow automates customer support by integrating AI chat responses with human escalation. When a chat message is received, the OpenAI Chat Model attempts to answer using contextual memory. If the AI cannot resolve the query, the workflow prompts the user for their email and notifies a human agent via Slack for further assistance.
