If you're like most support managers or business owners I’ve worked with, you’ve probably wondered how much time your team could save if you weren’t answering the same tickets over and over. Things like “How do I reset my password?” or “When are you open?” may seem minor, but they eat up hours weekly. That’s exactly why automating Zendesk tickets is a no-brainer.
I’ve helped several clients implement AI ticket automation in Zendesk using Voiceflow, and the impact is huge: faster response times, better organization, and happier customers — all without overwhelming your agents. In the video included, I walk you through exactly how to set everything up — no coding, no headaches. It’s easier than you think.
Zendesk is already a great platform, but when you layer in automation, it becomes unstoppable. Here’s what I commonly automate for clients:
Auto-reply to common questions like order tracking, returns, or how-to guides. One client cut ticket volume by 40% with this alone.
Use AI to assign tags like “billing,” “technical,” or “feature request” automatically — no more manual sorting.
Route tickets to the right teams based on intent. VIPs get prioritized, billing goes to finance, and so on.
Auto-resolve inactive tickets, send follow-ups, and manage status updates.
Reply in the customer's language automatically — I’ve helped clients scale support across multiple countries without hiring extra agents.

In the video above, I'll walk you through how to automate ticket support requests, whenever a ticket is created in your help center.
Want a head start? I created a template you can download and use in Voiceflow to save you time and start automating every new ticket within Zendesk. Download.
The “Agent” step in Voiceflow is the real MVP here. It allows your Voiceflow assistant to not just respond to customers, but to create, update, and close Zendesk tickets directly. It feels native — no jumping between tools or manual syncing.
This step alone turns your bot into a fully operational support teammate.
You don’t need to automate everything. Start with areas like:
In the video, I show exactly how to get all this running from scratch. Here’s the quick version:
No confusion. No broken flows. Just smooth automation.

E-commerce: Live tracking info auto-sent to “Where is my order?” tickets.
SaaS: Sentiment-based routing for angry users.
Tech companies: Overnight ticket triage.
Internal IT: Password resets, system access — fully handled.
Agent Assist: AI suggests replies directly inside Zendesk.
Voiceflow + Zendesk is a killer combo. You don’t need to code. You don’t need a developer. You just need to set it up once — and I will show you how in the video.
Start small, see the results, and scale as you go. The Agent step gives you superpowers, and automation gives your team the time back to focus on what matters.
