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)

First Light / Focus

Same business day

Signature

8 hours (business days)

Full Frame

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

Studio

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Iris is quoting wrong prices or saying outdated things→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. First Light / Focus turnaround: same business day. Full Frame: 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

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)
