Challenge	1Password, a data protection company, partnered with Drift in 2022 to enhance their marketing and sales meetings. However, they realized the potential to use Drift's unified platform to improve their customer support experience and make their service agents' work more efficient. The primary goal was to reduce first response times and resolution times for customer support.

Solution	1Password transformed their customer support process by implementing Drift's unified platform. This led to increased efficiency, quicker resolutions, and an improved customer experience. Drift's Conversational AI allowed customers to have real-time conversations with a 1Password service agent, while also ensuring that conversations that didn't require a service agent were handled by AI bots. This allowed service agents to dedicate more time to helping other customers. The AI bots were pre-trained with topics, but 1Password also built out custom AI topics to account for unique customer inquiries. For conversations that needed to be routed directly to a rep, Drift provided a solution that allowed customers to be automatically routed to an online agent or have an email created and sent to email support if the team wasn't online.
