Front

Front is a customer service platform that consolidates communications into a unified interface using shared inboxes and an integrated ticketing system. It pulls in conversations from omnichannel sources like email, SMS, social media, and WhatsApp, allowing teams to manage all interactions from one place. The platform’s AI Autopilot automates front-line inquiries with natural-language conversational agents that infer user intent, while workflow automation is handled through configurable rules and macros. For connecting with other tools, it provides a full API, though deep integration with legacy enterprise software requires initial webhook mapping to function correctly. The system is designed for customer-facing teams, including support, operations, inbound sales, and account management. In a daily workflow, an agent can manage a customer issue, collaborate with a colleague from another department in the same thread, and apply a macro to tag and close the ticket. Teams can use pre-built dialogue templates for common tasks like appointment scheduling and FAQs. Performance is monitored using analytics dashboards that feature conversation and sentiment tracking to measure support effectiveness and customer satisfaction.
