Fin
Intercom's AI agent that resolves customer support conversations by itself.
About
Fin is Intercom's AI customer-service agent: it reads your help center and knowledge base, then resolves routine conversations autonomously across chat, email, WhatsApp, SMS, and voice, handing complex cases to humans with full context. It can also run standalone on top of your existing helpdesk rather than requiring the full Intercom suite.
Pricing is published and usage-based at $0.99 per Fin resolution on top of Intercom's platform plans ($29-$132/seat/month), a model reviewers praise for transparency but warn gets expensive at volume. Intercom itself carries strong third-party validation (G2 4.5/5 from 3,500+ reviews per 2025 roundups), and Fin is widely cited as the driver of the company's recent growth.
