Dashboard
Your Hay dashboard is mission control for your AI support operation. Get a bird's eye view of everything happening with your customer conversations.
Overview #
The dashboard shows you the most important metrics and activity at a glance. When you log in, you'll see:
- Total conversations today, this week, and this month
- Active conversations currently being handled
- Resolution rate - how many conversations were solved without human help
- Response time - how quickly customers are getting answers
- Recent activity - latest conversations and interactions
Understanding Your Metrics #
Total Conversations #
This shows how many customer conversations your Hay agent has handled.
- Increasing? Great! Your agent is helping more customers
- Decreasing? Check if integrations are working properly
Resolution Rate #
The percentage of conversations solved completely by AI without human intervention.
What's a good resolution rate?
- 60-70% is typical when starting out
- 80-90% is excellent after training and optimization
- Below 50%? Your agent may need more training documents
Average Response Time #
How quickly customers receive their first response.
Hay typically responds in:
- ⚡ 1-3 seconds for simple questions
- ⚡ 3-8 seconds for questions requiring document lookup
- ⚡ 8-15 seconds for complex multi-step queries
Escalation Rate #
The percentage of conversations transferred to human agents.
Why do conversations escalate?
- Customer explicitly asks for a human
- Agent isn't confident in its answer
- Conversation requires actions the AI can't perform
- Sentiment is negative or frustrated
