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.
Give your AI agents live business data they can trust
Hook up GA4, Google Ads, HubSpot, Stripe, Search Console, and warehouses or databases via OAuth or a key — read-only, with nothing to self-host.
Tell Sequel once what a qualified lead, active account, or blended CAC means for your team, and every agent applies the same definition every time.
Sequel returns the query it ran with each result, so you can verify a figure instead of trusting it blindly.
Runs over MCP, so one connection serves Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP clients without reconnecting sources.
