High confidenceCanned Response Migration Guide

You're not alone — this is one of the most common complaints about canned responses. Here's how Relay solves it: **The Problem with Canned Responses:** - Generic and impersonal - Don't address the specific question - Require manual editing for each situation - Become outdated without constant maintenance **How AI Drafts Are Different:** - **Contextual**: AI reads the entire email and crafts a relevant response - **Personalized**: Addresses the customer by name and references their specific issue - **Complete**: Answers all questions in the email, not just the primary one - **Current**: Always drafts from your latest knowledge base content **Example:** Canned Response: "Thank you for contacting us. Please refer to our FAQ page for answers to common questions." AI Draft: "Hi Sarah! I see you're having trouble with the CSV export timing out. This happens when your export exceeds 100MB. Here's the fix: [specific steps from your KB]" **Migration Is Easy:** 1. Stop maintaining canned responses 2. Add the underlying information to Relay's knowledge base 3. AI generates contextual, personalized responses for each email The result: happier customers, less agent editing, and zero template maintenance.
