AI-first customer service platform with a native AI agent for every conversation
A support-trained AI agent that resolves customer conversations across chat, email, phone and Slack, averaging around 76% resolution according to Intercom's own benchmark data.
Bring chat, email, social and messaging channels into one workspace so agents see every conversation with full customer context.
Track customer issues, back-office work and widespread tracker problems so nothing falls through the cracks and customers stay informed.
Manage and optimize the content that powers Fin, Copilot and your Help Center, with reporting on how each article performs across touchpoints.

The intelligent documentation platform that keeps itself up to date
Write in Markdown or MDX in your own repository. Mintlify handles hosting, search and navigation, but your files and Git history stay yours if you ever leave.
Every site can expose an MCP server, llms.txt and agent optimizations so AI clients and assistants find, read and cite your documentation accurately.
The Assistant answers reader questions with citations from your docs, while Autopilot continuously drafts updates when it detects that content has drifted from reality.
Generate a full API reference from an OpenAPI specification with a built-in playground, plus version and language navigation for multiple releases and translations.
