Two to three product changes a week. That's what Cora Van Leeuwen walked into when she joined Attio's support team, and it's what pushed her to rethink how Guru stays current.
Cora walks through the staleness scan she built in Claude to catch outdated Guru cards, how she decides what's true when Slack, Intercom, and Guru disagree, and why verifying a knowledge base gets harder once a team outgrows the honor system.
Still unresolved: who's actually responsible for keeping it verified as the team scales.

Paul Tucker built a support team at ChiroCat that chiropractors call legendary, and he did it without a chiropractic background. He hired insurance billers who'd worked inside chiropractic offices — people who already spoke the language. That hiring decision is the foundation for everything else he's built.
In this episode, Paul walks through how he thinks about customer appetite for AI, what his Claude-powered internal tools actually do, and the feedback problem he's still working through: how to let what customers say land with enough weight to generate action, without letting it distort what his team believes it's capable of.
So many Customer Experience leaders are testing with AI and rebuilding with AI as their foundation. Every one of us have to reinvent everything that we've known about customer experience systems and processes. You're not alone, so let's do this journey together.
If you've built a process for metabolizing customer feedback without either dismissing it or spiraling into it, Paul wants to hear from you. That's what Unresolved is for.

Cati Brunell-Brutman ran VOC at Glossier, Birchbox, Headway, and Daily Harvest. Her read on where the field is right now: AI has largely solved the surfacing problem. The judgment of what to do with the data still hasn't automated.

In this episode, Robert Cabral's customer experience team at Runway built AI support that handles first-contact resolution and billing decisions without adding headcount. The handoff context problem got fixed in the first week. What's still open is harder: how do you know what AI resolved a customer's conversation without you ever seeing it?

In this episode, Shmuel Saklad, the Senior Manager of Enterprise accounts and B2B Contact Center Operations for B&H Photo Video, walks us through how his team manages enterprise B2B accounts across government and education, and why knowing your customer's contact patterns matters more than any survey.
So many Customer Experience leaders are testing with AI and rebuilding with AI as their foundation. Every one of us have to reinvent everything that we’ve known about customer experience systems and processes.You’re not alone, so let’s do this journey together.Shmuel's unresolved problem is the silent customer. He knows the signal is somewhere in the behavioral data and has a sense of where the tools are heading. What he's still working on is how to surface it early enough to act on, and who in the organization picks up the work of making that data operational before the customer is already gone.If you’ve built a workflow for this, he wants to hear from you. That’s what Unresolved is for.

In this episode, Sarala Conlan, Senior Customer Support Manager at Kojo, discusses her team's structure, the use of AI and automation tools, and strategies for managing customer churn. She emphasizes the importance of proactive support and the need for effective communication between support and customer success teams.
So many Customer Experience leaders are testing with AI and rebuilding with AI as their foundation. Every one of us have to reinvent everything that we’ve known about customer experience systems and processes. You’re not alone, so let’s do this journey together.
Sarala’s two unresolved problems are the same problem in different clothes. She wants to see the moment a customer breaks down inside the product, before the ticket. She wants to see the personality fit of a candidate, before the hire. Both are about catching signal earlier in a process that currently waits for friction to surface itself.
If you’ve built either of those workflows, or you’re closer to building them than she is, she wants to hear from you. That’s what Unresolved is for.
