What is Intercom Fin?
Intercom Fin is an AI customer service agent that answers from your help center and internal content, takes bounded actions, and escalates to a human agent inside the Intercom inbox.
Fin sits in front of the Intercom inbox, drawing on help articles, internal knowledge, and connected data to answer customer questions across chat, email, and messaging channels. It can follow written procedures, gather details before handoff, and pass full context to a person when a conversation needs one. Because it lives inside Intercom, reporting on resolution rate, CSAT, and escalations is native.
A support agent that is priced per resolved conversation and deeply integrated with a full help-desk suite, so deflection, escalation, and reporting live in one place.
