In customer support, speed and accuracy matter more than anything else. When a new ticket comes in, your team shouldn’t have to waste time reinventing the wheel. That’s where HelpDesk’s “Show similar tickets” feature comes in — a smart, AI-powered tool that instantly surfaces past cases similar to the one you’re working on.
By leveraging proven solutions, your agents can resolve issues faster, stay consistent across conversations, and deliver an exceptional customer experience.

What Is the “Show Similar Tickets” Feature?
The Show similar tickets option automatically scans your resolved and closed tickets from the last 180 days. Instead of relying on simple keywords, HelpDesk uses advanced AI embeddings to understand the meaning and context of tickets.
That means agents don’t just get random keyword matches — they see genuinely relevant cases that share the same problem patterns as the one they’re handling.
Why It Matters for Support Teams
Here’s why this feature is a game-changer:
- Save Time ⏱ — Similar cases appear right in the ticket details panel, so no more manual searching.
- Stay Consistent ✅ — Agents can reuse successful responses for a uniform customer experience.
- Leverage Team Knowledge 💡 — Collective solutions from the past are always just a click away.
- Get Smarter Over Time 📈 — As more tickets are closed, the AI delivers even more accurate suggestions.

- Scroll to the “Show similar tickets” section in the details panel.
- Browse the list of related tickets automatically suggested by the AI.

Can I filter or edit the results?
Not yet. The AI chooses the most relevant matches automatically, and accuracy improves as your ticket history grows.
