Task-specific scoring for customer support workloads across 5 dimensions.
| Dimension | DeepSeek V3 | GPT-5.2 | Edge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Empathy & Tone | Produces polite, professional responses but can sound generic and lacks warmth for emotionally sensitive interactions. | Delivers naturally empathetic responses with appropriate emotional calibration, adapting tone to match customer concerns. | |
| Issue Resolution | Follows logical troubleshooting steps effectively but may miss nuanced edge cases in complex multi-step resolutions. | Excels at structured troubleshooting with clear next-step recommendations and integrates well with tool-calling workflows. | |
| Escalation Detection | Identifies explicit escalation signals like frustration keywords but can miss subtle cues such as sarcasm or passive dissatisfaction. | Reliably detects both overt and subtle escalation triggers, including tone shifts and implied dissatisfaction. | |
| Knowledge Accuracy | Provides accurate information from training data but may occasionally hallucinate product details without a knowledge base. | Delivers highly accurate responses and integrates seamlessly with RAG pipelines for grounded, factual answers. | |
| Response Speed | Fast inference and low cost per token make it attractive for high-volume support environments. | Slightly slower per-token but response times remain competitive, with structured output enabling faster downstream processing. |
