AI-first customer service with a natively integrated AI agent
An AI agent trained specifically for customer service that resolves routine and increasingly complex multi-step queries across every channel.
Chat, email, phone, and messaging conversations arrive in one shared inbox with ticketing built for collaboration across teams.
An assistant that proactively surfaces context from connected systems and handles admin work without leaving the conversation view.
Centralize and measure the content behind AI and self-serve support, with suggestions on what to fix and one-click actions.

No-code AI support agents that answer — and act — for your customers
Import website pages, documents, text blocks, Q&A pairs, Notion pages, and YouTube videos into a searchable knowledge base the agent answers from.
Let the agent do more than chat: book meetings, process payments, capture leads, check inventory, and run custom workflows connected to your tools.
Route unresolved conversations into a live chat inbox so a human agent continues the thread with the full transcript already in hand.
Choose from current OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta Llama, DeepSeek, and xAI models per chatbot, including low-latency and high-reasoning options.
