Response time targets

How fast you'll hear back.

By tier. Higher tiers get faster windows because they pay more for them — that's the deal. Targets, not aspirations: if we miss them, see the refund policy for what you're entitled to.

Setup Hour

24 hours (business days)

Pilot / Industry Pilot

Same business day

Solo

8 hours (business days)

Operator

4 hours (business hours, 9am–6pm CT Mon–Fri)

Enterprise

Per contract, typically 2 hours in coverage window

Common fixes

Before you email — try these first.

About 60% of tickets we get can be self-fixed in under 5 minutes. Faster for you, faster for everyone in the queue behind you.

Iris isn't answering the phone / calls aren't routing

Most call-routing issues are Twilio-side, not Iris-side. Check your Twilio status page first. If Twilio is green, log into your Synthflow / Bland dashboard and confirm the agent is “active” — sometimes a billing card decline silently pauses an agent.

Iris is quoting wrong prices or saying outdated things

Your knowledge base needs an update. Open the Google Doc we set up during install and edit the relevant section. Changes take effect within 5 minutes (we have a sync running every 5 min). If they don't, email us with the line you edited and we'll force a re-sync.

Iris sounds different / voice changed

ElevenLabs occasionally retires or updates voice models. Log into your ElevenLabs account and confirm the voice ID we configured is still active. If it's been deprecated, email us — we'll pick the closest replacement and re-tune.

I want to change a script / add a new FAQ

For simple text changes: edit the Google Doc KB directly. For new behaviors (a new escalation path, a new question type) — email support with what you want and Bruce will update the system prompt. Pilot / Industry Pilot turnaround: same business day. Operator: within a few business hours.

Billing question

For your Iris Bites retainer: email support@irisbites.com. For third-party tool bills (Twilio, Synthflow, etc.): contact that vendor directly — they bill you, not us, so they have to issue the credit.

What a great support email looks like

The more you tell us, the faster we fix.

You don't have to use this template — but emails like this get resolved in one reply instead of three.

Iris quoted $200 instead of $250 for new patient exam — 2:14pm call today

Hey Bruce —

Riverside Dental account. Got a call this afternoon (2:14pm CT) where Iris quoted a new patient exam at $200. The KB has it at $250.

Caller name was Jen Martinez, callback 512-555-0142 — she's booked Saturday and might be confused on price. Want me to call her back, or do you want to?

Recording link: [synthflow link they pasted]

Thanks
Sarah

What made it great

  • · Specific account name
  • · Exact time of the broken call
  • · The error (quoted $200, should be $250)
  • · The customer impact (caller may be confused)
  • · A direct link to the recording

What would slow it down

  • · “Iris is broken” with no detail
  • · “A customer called this week” (no time)
  • · No recording link or call ID
  • · Vague (“wrong price” instead of which price)
