Agentic customer service platform where teams and AI resolve support together
Handle email, chat, Slack, Teams, voice, WhatsApp and a help center from one workspace, with shared inboxes for teams that stay in Gmail.
AI investigates issues across past conversations, docs, connected systems and codebases, then drafts contextual replies and takes action with approval.
Define how AI resolves complex multi-step requests, deploy across every channel, and test performance on real scenarios before going live.
AI reviews resolved tickets to spot gaps in the help center and turn proven resolutions into new articles, keeping documentation current.
Autonomous enterprise AI agents and CRM intelligence powered by Salesforce Data 360 and Atlas.
Deconstructs complex queries into multi-step action plans grounded in Data 360, retaining state across days or weeks to complete multi-touch operational workflows with human escalation guardrails.
Configure custom agents, subagents, natural-language instructions, and deterministic guardrails using existing Salesforce Flows, Prompt Builder templates, Apex code, and MuleSoft APIs.
Coordinate specialized subagents across departments and connect securely to external enterprise tools through verified Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers from AgentExchange partners.
Replace rigid telephone IVR trees with low-latency conversational voice agents alongside unified deployments across web chat, WhatsApp, SMS, mobile apps, and Slack.
