The Future of AI in Revelation helpdesk: Our Roadmap and Your Role

The introduction of Revelation AI Assist and AI Edit is just the beginning of our AI journey. These features were deliberately chosen to solve high-value, everyday challenges for helpdesk teams — but we know there’s even more potential ahead.


Our vision for AI in Revelation helpdesk is guided by the same principles we’ve had from the start: useful first, secure by design, human in the loop, and built for the real world.


The Next Evolution: From Ticket-Level to System-Wide AI Assistance


Today, Revelation AI Assist works brilliantly at the ticket level — giving you insights, summaries, and recommendations for the task at hand. But we see a future where AI Assist becomes a system-wide assistant across your entire helpdesk.


In that vision, AI Assist “hooks” into the Revelation backend API to unlock a whole new range of capabilities:

  • Search & Retrieve – “Show me all open tickets from last week.”
  • Create New Tickets from Natural Language – “Log a printer issue for John in HR.”
  • Escalate or Reassign – “Escalate Ticket #34567 to Tier 2.”
  • SLA Insights – “Are we meeting our SLA targets for Company ABC?”

This approach moves AI Assist from being reactive to proactive — helping you not only work faster inside tickets, but also manage your helpdesk at a higher, more strategic level.


Where We’re Headed


While we won’t release AI features just because they’re trendy, there are several areas we’re actively exploring based on customer needs:

  • Predictive ticket routing – AI-driven analysis of ticket content to automatically assign the right resource from the start.
  • Automated escalation triggers – Proactive alerts when AI detects certain keywords, sentiment patterns, or unresolved issues.
  • Knowledge Base auto-suggestions – Instantly surfacing related articles and solutions during ticket handling.
  • Expanded tone and style options in AI Edit – More ways to tailor communications for different audiences.
  • Generate Summaries, Charts, or Metrics – “Give me a summary of ticket activity this week for the Run team.”
  • Integration with additional LLMs – While Azure AI remains our default for security and compliance, we’re evaluating other secure large language models for customers who want more flexibility.

The Roadmap Philosophy


We approach AI feature development with an iterative, customer-led process:

  • Start small with proven, high-impact use cases.
  • Gather feedback from real-world usage.
  • Expand capabilities only if they deliver measurable value.

Some ideas will move quickly, others will take more time to mature — but all will be tested against our core principles before they launch.


Your Role in Shaping What’s Next


The best AI capabilities are built in collaboration with the people who will use them daily. That’s why your feedback is critical.

Three curved paths showing ways to shape Revelation AI’s future: share scenarios, give feedback on features, and participate in pilots. Revelation helpdesk logo at bottom.

Here’s how you can help shape the future of AI in Revelation helpdesk:

  • Share specific scenarios where AI could save you time or improve accuracy.
  • Let us know which existing AI features you use most — and least.
  • Participate in pilot programs for upcoming features.

Security Will Always Come First


No matter what features we add, one thing will never change: your ticket data, as it relates to AI queries, will never leave your secure Microsoft 365 environment.


Every new AI capability will follow the same design approach we use today: running inside your Azure AI tenant, inheriting your compliance and governance policies, and giving you full control.


Final Thoughts


AI in Revelation helpdesk isn’t about chasing trends — it’s about building tools that make your workday easier, your service faster, and your communication sharper.


By working together, we can ensure the future of AI in Revelation helpdesk is as practical, secure, and impactful as possible.
