AI agent glossary

Intake and triage

Intake and triage is the work of receiving incoming requests, such as emails, forms, tickets or calls, sorting them by type and urgency, and sending each to the right person or queue.

It is a common first job for an AI agent, because the rules are clear and a person can check the routing.
