Freshdesk vs. LiveAgent

Freshdesk (a product of Freshworks Inc.) helps customer service teams move from their first AI agent to AI-powered customer service, without a drawn-out transformation program. Freshdesk unifies channels, conversations, AI, and customer context into one place, so agents always have the full picture before responding. Ready-to-use AI agents understand intent, take action, and resolve requests across channels, not just route them. AI Copilot helps every agent work faster and with more confidence, and AI Insights turns service data into decisions instead of dashboards.

LiveAgent is an AI help desk for support teams. AI agents answer chats and handle tickets alongside your team, all in one shared inbox. Every plan includes AI with no per-resolution fees. Plans start at $15 per agent/month billed annually, with a 30-day free trial and no credit card required. LiveAgent ranks #3 of 9 CX agents in G2's AI Agent Evaluation, with 195 of 230 points. It is made by Quality Unit, founded in 2004. AI in every plan Every plan has the same AI features; plans differ in how many AI agents you can run (1, 5, 50 or unlimited).
