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.
Affordable real-time search API that returns structured JSON plus page content in a single call.
Send a query and receive live web results as clean, structured JSON that is ready for parsing, ranking or feeding into a model.
Convert any URL into clean, readable markdown in the same API key, removing boilerplate so retrieved text is directly usable for RAG and summarization.
Requests are routed across multiple underlying search sources with health monitoring and automatic retries, so a single empty source does not break your pipeline.
Official libraries and snippets for Python, JavaScript, MCP and LangChain make it a few lines of code to add live search to an agent or app.
