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.

Build AI chatbots and agents for your clients — your keys, your models, your control
Connect OpenAI, Anthropic or Google Gemini and switch models in seconds without changing code, so you are never locked to a single provider and can optimize cost as pricing changes.
Publish one chatbot configuration to an embeddable website widget, Slack workspaces (DMs and channel mentions) and an email agent that reads and answers over IMAP/SMTP — same knowledge, same personality.
Train on PDFs, Word and Markdown documents, full website crawls or specific pages, structured CSV/JSON datasets, YouTube videos and playlists with automatic transcripts, and FAQ pairs for exact answers.
Start with a simple Q&A chatbot and extend it into an agent that can query databases, kick off workflows and call external APIs without migrating to another tool.
