PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Keep customer conversation, knowledge, and handoff in one service workspace.

Intercom combines Messenger, Inbox, tickets, help-center knowledge, proactive messages, reporting, Copilot, and Fin AI Agent in one customer-service platform. It is strongest for digital products that want support inside the product and a measurable handoff between automated and human resolution. Total cost can combine seats, packaging, and AI resolutions, while answer quality still depends on governed source content.
