AI support agent plus helpdesk built for ecommerce brands
Frontier-model AI resolves tickets that span several tools and steps, such as holding a shipment, saving a subscription and updating billing systems, rather than only replying with text.
Email, chat, SMS, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and phone all land in a single shared inbox, and the AI answers on each channel, including voice calls.
An implementation manager moves your data, builds integrations, writes your SOPs and tests the setup with your team, so you are not left to configure automation alone.
Each brand or store gets its own AI tone, rules and reporting inside one workspace, keeping multi-brand support consistent and on-brand.

The AI-native helpdesk that turns Slack and Teams chats into resolved tickets
Detect and create tickets from channel threads or private bot DMs, so requests become trackable work without asking anyone to leave their chat app.
AI combines the conversation, requester history, connected knowledge and live systems data to answer questions and take actions rather than merely routing them.
Resolved conversations are turned into new or updated documentation, so the knowledge base stays current and future questions are deflected automatically.
Trigger approvals, updates and multi-step workflows across Jira, Linear, HubSpot, Salesforce, Workday, Okta, Stripe and other connected tools, plus Zapier, Make and webhooks.
