AI customer service agents that learn your data and take real actions
Crawl your website, upload documents and connect knowledge bases, then set brand voice and guardrail policies so answers stay on-brand and compliant.
Run custom API calls and native integrations to book meetings, check Stripe billing, update CRM records and capture leads — not just answer questions.
Embed on your website and connect Slack, Notion, Zendesk, WordPress, OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, Zapier and Make, or reach it via API.
Schedule automatic re-crawls so the agent keeps up with changing FAQs, pricing and product documentation without manual reindexing.
