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.

Custom GPT-powered support chatbots trained on your own content
Point SupportAI at your website, files, product pages or videos and it builds a knowledge base your chatbot answers from, with no code required beyond a single embed snippet.
Use the same chatbot on your website, WhatsApp, Messenger and other channels so customers get consistent answers wherever they reach out.
Beyond support, preconfigured use cases cover lead capture and email list growth, sales conversations, bookings and appointments, product recommendations, feedback collection and internal employee Q&A.
Edit, add and update the content your bot answers from, review real conversation transcripts, and monitor where answers fall short so you can close those gaps over time.
