Elevate Homescriptions Achieved 4.6/5 CSAT After Hours — Without Scaling Headcount

How a leading home warranty provider transformed after-hours support from a cost center into a scalable customer experience advantage.

Elevate Homescriptions

Overview

After-hours support is one of the most operationally challenging aspects of running a home warranty business. Customers often call in urgent, emotional, and seeking clarity—yet traditional answering services are limited to basic message-taking.

This case study outlines how Elevate Homescriptions, a leading home warranty provider, partnered with zudo.work to deploy Alex, an AI-powered agent purpose-built for warranty operations—and why they're now exploring expanding Alex into business-hours coverage as well.

The Problem

Before working with zudo.work, Elevate Homescriptions relied on a traditional after-hours call answering service to provide 24×7 coverage.

While calls were technically answered, the experience fell short in providing a consistent 24/7 Elevated experience:

  • Inability to interpret long, complex warranty contracts
  • No real understanding of coverage eligibility or exclusions
  • Shallow note-taking that lacked operational context
  • Significant internal follow-up the next business day
  • Customers left without transparency into what was happening with their claims

After-hours support existed—but it wasn't delivering confidence, clarity, or resolution.

The Solution: Alex AI + a Custom After-Hours Deployment

Elevate Homescriptions partnered with zudo.work to deploy Alex, an AI agent specifically trained for home warranty workflows and introduced as the company's after-hours frontline.

Warranty AI products

Alex functions as a warranty expert, not a generic chatbot, and helps customers through comprehensive capabilities:

Read and reason over long warranty contracts
Accurately answer coverage and eligibility questions
Read and interpret historical claim notes
Provide customers with clear explanations, transparency, and rationale
Initiate new service requests when appropriate
Follow up on existing service requests
Handle service recalls, cancellations, and auto-renewal changes
Provide richer, faster context to on-call teams

“Working with zudo felt like they were a part of our team. They want continuous feedback. They treat our customers like their own.”
