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.

Open-source RAG and semantic search you can host yourself
Ingests articles, emails, social posts and documents as a continuous stream, indexing each item so it can be retrieved in seconds and compared against the topics you track.
Combines keyword and vector search (Weaviate with multilingual E5 embeddings) so you can retrieve results by meaning and see the exact passage that matched.
Every revision is preserved rather than overwritten, so when a source article is corrected you can still see the previous version and its history.
Notifies your application through signed webhooks when new content matches a described topic, explaining why it matched.
