Context
With exponential growth in international bookings, GuruWalk needed to scale support without multiplying headcount. Users reached out in Spanish, English, French, Italian and Portuguese at all hours, and response times were stretching during nights and weekends.
Problem
Limited multilingual support
Human agents couldn't cover all 5 main languages, leading to slow or inaccurate responses in non-native languages.
No 24/7 coverage
Outside business hours, queries piled up unanswered, hurting the traveler experience before their tour.
Unmanageable volume
Over 500,000 monthly messages across all channels made it impossible to maintain quality with a small team.
Repetitive queries
A large share of tickets were FAQs (cancellations, meeting points, schedules) that consumed senior team time.
Solution with GuruSup
Multilingual AI agent in 5 languages
We deployed an AI agent that responds in Spanish, English, French, Italian and Portuguese with automatic language detection.
24/7 automation across all channels
The agent covers WhatsApp, email and web chat around the clock, 7 days a week, with zero downtime.
Dynamic knowledge base
Integration with GuruWalk's database to answer with up-to-date information about tours, guides, cancellation policies and meeting points.
Smart human escalation
The agent identifies when a query needs human intervention and transfers it with the full conversation context.
