How businesses use Stack exchange + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Stack exchange actions Lyro runs to close it.

  • Find the answer the community already wrote

    Lyro searches the network for the question being asked, pulls the threads closest to it by title, and reads the answers attached, so a technical reply cites something already resolved in public.

    Search QuestionsFind Similar QuestionsGet Question Answers
  • Watch the tags your product lives under

    Lyro reads a tag's activity and FAQ, identifies who answers on it most often, and lists the questions still sitting unanswered, so somebody stuck on your product does not go unnoticed.

    Get Tag InfoGet Tag Top AnswerersList Unanswered Questions
  • Keep on top of your own account's inbox

    Lyro reads the unread notifications and mentions on the connected account and lists the questions it asked that still have no answer, so nothing addressed to your team goes unseen.

  • Reach the whole network, not one site

    Lyro lists the sites across the network, opens the collective your product belongs to, and reads the questions posted inside it, so a search is not confined to the main Stack Overflow feed.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Stack exchange actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

  1. 01

    Connect Stack exchange

    Authorize the Stack exchange account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.

  2. 02

    Tell your agent what you need

    Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Stack exchange actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.

  3. 03

    Watch it work

    The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

Everything else about Stack exchange

Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Lyro can do inside Stack exchange.

  • No. Every action in this toolkit reads, with the single exception of Create Filter, which shapes what a response returns. Lyro can find, quote, and route what the community has written, but publishing back to the network remains a person posting under their own account.
