Why train your customer service and after-sales teams in generative AI?

Customer service can respond faster and more accurately without losing what makes it valuable: the listening, judgment and decision-making of the advisor.

Scattered information

Procedures, product sheets, technical notes, ticket histories: the right answer often exists, but it takes too long to find it.

Written responses in quick succession

Emails, messages, intervention reports: a large part of the time is spent writing, reformulating and adapting the tone to each client.

Plausible but incorrect answers

A fabricated guarantee, an outdated procedure, or an approximate timeframe binds the company. Every response must be based on a verified source.

Customer data to protect

Contact details, contracts, history and complaints are personal data: authorized tools and clear rules are essential.

How we prepare for the session with your department manager

The content, examples and tools are prepared with your subject matter expert before the session.

01

Feasibility study

Gathering information on needs, channels used, most frequent reasons for contact, participant level and your constraints.

02

Customization

Adaptation of the process and exercises to your products, procedures and response models, then validation with your organization.

03

Training

Participatory facilitation, guided practical application and distribution of educational materials.

Schedule for the half-day (3 hours 30 minutes)

  • 0:00 to 0:20 Fundamentals of generative AI applied to customer relations: what the tool can do based on a knowledge base, and what it should never do on its own: promise a goodwill gesture, invent a guarantee, resolve a dispute
  • 0:20 to 0:40 : familiarization with the tool chosen by your IT department, structure of a prompt for a customer response, requirement to cite the procedure or source document
  • 0:40 to 2:40 Workshops tailored to your specific situations, such as finding the right procedure for a customer service case, responding to a complex complaint, summarizing a long ticket history before escalation, and analyzing a batch of verbatim comments, including building prompts and a reusable response assistant.
  • 2:40 to 3:10 : presentation of completed work, cross-review of responses, verification of engaging information and tone
  • 3:10 to 3:30 : biases and limitations, personal customer data, GDPR, Article 4 of the AI Act and drafting your internal usage rules

The 1 hour 30 minute format follows the same tight structure: 20 minutes of fundamentals, 55 minutes of workshop on two chosen cases, 15 minutes of usage framework.

Your customer data does not leave your environment

Contact details, contracts, history, complaints: customer data protection governs the entire system.

The exercises are based on your real-world situations, never on your customers' data. We build the practical cases with your designated contact person using anonymized or reconstructed examples, and we work within the environment approved by your IT department: Copilot Chat, Copilot M365, ChatGPT (Enterprise or Azure OpenAI), Gemini, Claude, Mistral, the assistant integrated into your ticketing system, or a locally installed solution. No customer data is transmitted to a public model during the session. The final part of the training is dedicated to GDPR, the AI Act, and the development of your internal usage rules, so that each advisor leaves knowing precisely what they can submit to an AI tool and what they should never submit.

Frequently asked questions about AI training for customer service and after-sales support

Answers to key questions about level, tools, personalization, and modalities.

AI training for customer service: which organization should we use to train our advisors and customer service team?

NextStart.AI, a generative AI training organization based in Paris (registration number 11756140675), designs customized sessions for customer service, after-sales service, support, and customer relations teams: a maximum of twelve participants, based on your anonymized typical requests and complaints, using a tool validated by your IT department. 4,850 professionals trained since 2023, average satisfaction of 9,4/10.

Does our customer data remain confidential?

Yes. The cases are built on anonymized or reconstructed examples; no real customer data is transmitted to a public model. The session takes place on the tool approved by your IT department, in your environment.

Will AI answer in place of our advisors?

No. She prepares: she finds the information, proposes a response, summarizes the history. The advisor checks, adjusts the tone and decides what is sent, in particular anything that commits the company (guarantee, deadline, goodwill gesture).

How to avoid giving a wrong answer to a customer?

The training teaches participants to request the procedure or source document for each response, to verify binding information, and to identify outdated documentation. This is a systematic exercise in the workshop.

Is it possible to prepare a tray without interrupting the service?

Yes. We organize short 1.5-hour sessions, repeated in waves at staggered times, remotely or on-site, so that the service remains available during the training.

Do you need to already know how to use ChatGPT or Copilot?

No. The content is adapted to the level of the participants, from discovery to the construction of a sourced answer assistant.

Can you work with our ticketing tool?

Yes, if your ticketing system includes an AI assistant authorized by your IT department, we use it. Otherwise, we work with the company's general-purpose assistant (Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral) using anonymized snippets.

What is the difference between the 1 hour 30 minute format and the half-day format?

The 15-hour format follows the same concise structure: 20 minutes of fundamentals, 55 minutes of workshop on two case studies chosen with you, and 15 minutes of practical application. The half-day format (3.5 hours) allows for the exploration of more situations, the creation of reusable prompts and assistants, and the presentation of work in a group setting.

Can the training be funded?

Our training courses are eligible for OPCO and ESF+ funding.

How much does the training cost?

Expect to pay €1,300 to €1,800 excluding VAT for a half-day session for up to twelve participants, with a discount for consecutive sessions; the 1.5-hour format is available upon request. We will send you a quote within 24 business hours; our price range is detailed on the page How much does AI training cost?.

Who is leading the session?

Flavien BessetThe speaker will be the founder of NextStart.AI, or a trainer from the team trained in the same methodology, depending on the language, city, and size of the wave. The speaker's name is included in the proposal, and they will prepare the session with your contact person.

What happens after my request?

You will receive a personal response within 24 business hours. A 30-minute exchange will clarify your teams, your tool, and your deadlines, after which you will receive the detailed proposal and training agreement.
