Their Pitch
AI clears the way. Your support team creates the impact.
Our Take
It's a shared inbox that turns email chaos into organized customer conversations. Think Gmail for support teams, but with AI that actually helps instead of just existing.
Deep Dive & Reality Check
Used For
- +**Your team keeps answering the same shipping questions 50 times a day** → AI Answers pulls from your knowledge base and responds instantly
- +**Customer emails get lost between team members and nothing gets resolved** → Shared inbox shows who's handling what, prevents double replies
- +**New support hires sound like robots or take forever to write responses** → AI Assist helps them write like pros in one click
- +**Customers can't find basic info and create tickets instead** → Knowledge base with search lets them help themselves
- +Beacon chat widget appears when customers seem stuck - catches problems before they email
Best For
- >Your team is drowning in customer emails across 5 different inboxes
- >You're tired of customers asking the same 10 questions over and over
- >Support feels like playing phone tag with angry people
Not For
- -Solo founders or tiny teams under 5 people — you're paying team prices for individual problems
- -Enterprise companies needing heavy customization — this is built for simplicity, not complexity
- -Teams where phone support is the main thing — the phone features are pretty basic
Pairs With
- *Slack (where your team gets notified about urgent support tickets and celebrates good customer feedback)
- *Shopify (pulls order details directly into conversations so you're not asking customers for order numbers)
- *Zapier (to automatically create tickets from other sources like contact forms or social media)
- *HubSpot (syncs customer data so support can see purchase history and previous interactions)
- *Jira (when customer issues turn into actual bugs that need developer attention)
The Catch
- !The pricing adds up fast once you need multiple agents and advanced features
- !You'll spend time setting up knowledge base articles upfront or the AI features won't work well
- !Mobile app is decent but you'll still prefer the desktop for complex customer issues
Bottom Line
The support tool that doesn't make you hate doing support.
