Velo · An AI co-pilot for ops teams

Built an AI ops co-pilot that drafts SOP responses, triages tickets, and writes weekly performance digests for a 50-person operations team, cutting average ticket time by 62%.

01/ The challenge

Velo's ops team was drowning in repetitive tickets: visa updates, KYC followups, vendor confirmations. Their best agents were spending 70% of their day on work that looked the same every time. Their backlog was growing by 18% month over month.

02/ The approach

We embedded with their ops lead for two weeks. We picked the top three repetitive ticket types and built a single agent that drafts responses, with a human-in-the-loop step before send. We wired in Slack, Linear, and their internal CRM, and added an evals harness that tags every response by a small set of quality dimensions.

Average ticket time dropped from 14m to 5.3m. The team handles 40% more volume with the same headcount. The agent has shipped 12 evaluated improvements since launch, every one measurable.

“They shipped in 8 weeks what we'd scoped for two quarters. The agent doesn't just answer tickets, it actually got better every week. Best team we've worked with.”
