Freshdesk

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.
