Meet Kim, ATAG's digital employee

The problem ATAG first came to us with was a familiar one: a customer's oven quits on a Sunday night, and they just want it working again. To handle moments like that, ATAG built Kim, a Freeday digital employee who works inside Salesforce alongside the support team.

The project started small. Kim's first tasks were the questions that used to sit in the queue: how a programme works, what an error code means, whether a part is still under warranty. She draws on ATAG's knowledge base of more than 140,000 articles and answers in the customer's own words, with the aim of taking routine work off the team and cutting response times from days to seconds.

The impact was noticeable, so ATAG extended her tasks. Kim now also handles troubleshooting, product questions, warranty checks, and spare-part requests across several ATAG brands and countries. When a case needs a person, she passes it on with the context already gathered, so nobody starts from scratch.

With that success behind them, ATAG chose to launch a new skill: managing mechanic visits.

Managing mechanic visits

Some things can't be fixed over chat. A heating element gives out, a dishwasher springs a leak, and someone has to come out to look at it. In June 2026, Kim's mechanic-visit skill went live in Belgium.

When a fault needs an engineer, Kim spots it, asks the customer for exactly what the technician will need, and books the visit straight into the system. There's no wait for an agent to pick up the case and no handover between departments. For a complaint, a gas or burning smell, or anything that needs human judgement, she escalates straight away and knows when to step back.

Results that hold up

Kim clears more than 6,000 tickets a month, and the customers she helps rate her an 8 out of 10 or better. ATAG's aim is to handle around 90% of incoming issues automatically, which frees the team for the cases that really need a person.

That's what a digital employee is for. She works each case through to a proper resolution, and the customer ends up sorted.
