上次更新日期: July 7, 2026

What is an Autonomous Service Workforce?

Zendesk’s Autonomous Service Workforce is an operating model where AI agents, copilots, and human teams work together to resolve service issues faster. As part of the Zendesk Resolution Platform, this connected workforce supports customers and employees across every interaction, reducing manual work, improving service quality, and keeping teams in control. Powered by the Resolution Learning Loop™, all communication strengthens knowledge, workflows, and automation over time.

Power service with the Autonomous Service Workforce

The Autonomous Service Workforce brings AI agents, copilots, workflows, knowledge, and governance into one connected system. It resolves customer and employee issues faster while reducing manual work across service operations. Human teams stay in control of outcomes, with AI improving performance through every interaction.

Resolve more issues with specialized AI agents

Zendesk AI agents go beyond answering questions to reason through complex requests and take action across systems. They resolve issues via messaging, email, voice, and backend workflows, using your knowledge, policies, and business context to provide accurate, personalized responses. With custom agents, teams can automate specialized processes that reflect their unique workflows, rules, and service standards.

Zendesk copilots give agents, admins, knowledge managers, and service leaders proactive guidance to improve performance. Agent Copilot recommends next steps, Admin Copilot surfaces workflow improvements, and Knowledge Copilot identifies content gaps. Meanwhile, Analyst Copilot turns service data into clear recommendations, so teams can optimize operations and improve outcomes over time.

Connect knowledge, workflows, and business systems

AI agents deliver stronger resolutions when they can access the systems where work happens. With Action Flows, Knowledge Connectors, MCP, and business integrations, Zendesk connects agents to the context and tools they need. They can retrieve trusted information from anAI knowledge base, automate actions, and coordinate work across systems without adding manual steps.
