Overview

Request Screen Recordings from customers.

Birdie is designed to help support agents understand and resolve customer issues faster by requesting screen recordings directly from customers. Instead of relying on lengthy back-and-forth exchanges, agents can see exactly what’s happening on the customer’s screen—streamlining communication and improving resolution times.

Why Request Screen Recordings with Birdie?

Birdie is particularly helpful in two scenarios:

1. Communication Gaps: When customers struggle to describe their issues clearly.

2. Complex Issues: When resolving the issue requires detailed visual context.

By allowing customers to visually share their experience, Birdie reduces misunderstandings and enables agents to take action with confidence.
