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.
AI receptionists that answer every call, 24/7
Agents answer inbound calls instantly at any hour, hold natural conversations, and capture the details that matter for each caller.
18 supported industries (plumbing, HVAC, real estate, property management, salons, legal and more) come with pre-filled pricing, vocabulary, and urgency rules.
Agents book appointments directly into your calendar, send real-time transcripts and summaries, and flag urgent calls for immediate follow-up.
A REST API and TypeScript SDK let you create agents, provision numbers, fetch transcripts, and subscribe to call events to embed voice agents in your own product.
