AI Assistants for Business: What Can They Do?
Plan AI assistants around information access, integrations and human approval.
Table of Contents
7 TopicsAn assistant can answer service questions, classify enquiries and direct people to consultations. Checking stock or booking appointments needs reliable integrations and permissions. Generating an answer and executing an action are different capabilities.
Separate information from authority
Keep approved-document answers distinct from customer-data access. Set boundaries for pricing, refunds and commitments. Route uncertainty to a person rather than inventing answers.
Start small and traceable
Log which agent accessed what data, used which tool, produced which recommendation and obtained which human approval. Avoid unnecessary sensitive records. Test tenant separation and permissions.
Illustrative Decision Scenario
Start with approved service answers and enquiry collection. Adding appointments requires availability checks and action confirmation. Put price changes or refunds behind separate permissions and human approval. Test misuse scenarios whenever introducing a new tool.
What to Check Before You Start
- Owned, current knowledge sources
- Least privilege and data separation
- Human handover and approvals
- Failure cases and retention policy
Frequently Asked Question
