Three tiers. One agent. Zero missed messages.

GentleDesk knows the difference between a visiting hours question and a resident in distress. That's the whole point.

Tier 1 — Autonomous

Responds instantly

Routine, no judgment call needed. GentleDesk answers from your community's knowledge base, immediately.
  • Visiting hours and parking information
  • Meal times and activity calendar details
  • "What services are included?" sends pricing sheet
  • Tour scheduling confirmations and availability
  • "Can I bring furniture?" sends move-in guide
Tier 2 — Draft + Approve

Drafts for your team

Time-sensitive but not urgent. GentleDesk prepares the response, your coordinator reviews before it sends.
  • Family complaint or concern about care
  • Change in resident needs — staff needs to assess
  • Billing clarification and payment questions
  • Tour follow-up — scheduling or objections
  • Care meeting request and availability questions
Tier 3 — Immediate Escalation

Alerts your team now

Safety risk or emotional urgency. GentleDesk does not respond. It escalates to the right person immediately.
  • Fall, injury, or change in condition reported
  • Mentions of distress, pain, or confusion
  • Any hint of neglect, abuse, or wandering
  • "I need someone right now" — escalate first, ask questions later
  • Angry family demanding immediate response

Why GentleDesk over generic tools?

Most helpdesk platforms were built for tech support. Senior care is a different world.

Purpose-built for senior living

Pre-trained on senior living front desk operations, family communication patterns, and operational escalation signals — not adapted from generic support tickets.

Staff stays in control

Tier 2 messages never send without human review. Your team reviews and approves every sensitive reply before it goes out. No autonomous communications without oversight.

Three tiers — not just a chatbot

Generic tools respond or they don't. GentleDesk routes: autonomous reply, draft-for-approval, or immediate escalation. The right action for every message, every time.

Full audit trail, zero surprises

Every message, every response, every escalation logged with timestamps. Complete visibility for your team — nothing falls through.
