Customer support got complicated. We cut the complexity out.

Paid plugins. AI credits billed per resolution. The feature you want locked behind a higher tier. That is the whole problem, and it is what miniDesk takes away.

Everywhere else, sold separately

Bring the whole team in. Seats are never a separate line item.
A widget that answers on your site, in your accent colour and with your logo.
Forward your support address over. Replies still go out in your name.
An embedded form for visitors who would rather type than talk.
Your documents, your website and past answers, searched for every reply.
Bring your conversations and contacts from Crisp, Intercom, Zendesk and four other tools.
Questions answered without your involvement. Counted against your allowance, never billed per answer.
A draft written for you on every conversation, ready to edit and send.
It reads only the passages a question needs, not your whole library, so replies stay fast and the allowance lasts.
Limits high enough that you never have to give them a thought.
Aim Claude or any MCP client at your inbox and let it do the work.

On another support tool, each one means a decision, a quote, a renewal. Here, none of them does.

Included, always

One plan. All of it.

  • All of the above, from day one, even on the free plan
  • AI usage on a single visible quota

Three steps, then it runs on its own.

Put it where your customers already are.

Paste one line of code for the live chat. Or forward your support address, drop in a web form, connect Telegram, Discord, Instagram or Messenger, and call the API. No build step. No paid plugins. Two minutes from start to finish.

Feed it what you already have.

Upload documents. Paste notes. Every ticket your team closes by hand becomes another example it can learn from.

No tagging, no shaping required. A PDF, a pasted paragraph, and a thread your team closed last week are all the same thing to it: material to draw answers from.

Let it answer. Step in when it counts.

A customer writes in. Most replies go out in seconds, at 3am, in the language the customer used.

Its (The code wrapped around the model that decides what it may read and when. Ours is tuned for one goal: pulling the right information in efficiently, so each answer spends the fewest tokens possible.) reads through your documents and past tickets as it goes, so a single reply burns a few thousand tokens instead of your whole library.

A human takes over when…

Nothing you wrote covers it. It stops, says nothing, and hands your team the thread along with a draft.

  1. Customer asksWhy does my invoice show two charges for March?
  2. It opens three thingsreading sourceswriting answerHelp centre3 extractsBilling doc1 of 38Past reply#4188
  3. It answersBoth charges are yours: the March invoice, plus the plan change on the 14th.4.0s · 3 sources read

A REST API for your code, and an MCP server for your agents.

None of this is required to use miniDesk. But if you have a developer on the team, they will appreciate it. Your support queue is reachable over HTTP and over MCP, so Claude, Cursor, or your own agent can read it and draft replies without a dashboard.

Once connected, just ask. Your customer support turns into something you can talk to, instead of another dashboard to read.

  • What are the biggest pain points my customers raised this month?

    Reads all 1,842 conversations and returns five themes, ranked by volume and by the time each one takes you.

  • Draft replies for everything still waiting, then show me the queue.

    Writes a grounded draft for each open thread, pulling from the pages it read, and leaves them ready for you to send.

  • Which docs page would remove the most tickets if I rewrote it?

    Cross-references failed answers with your content and names the page, along with the questions it keeps failing on.

Everything included, even on the free plan.

All six tools below can answer a ticket. All six charge for the AI on top of the plan price. We do not, on any plan, including the free one, and we do not charge for the conversations the AI never touches either.

Checked against each vendor's own published documentation, September 2026.

The same month, three real teams.

Conversations are unlimited on every paid plan, so the only number left to compare is how many of them the AI answers. Each team below is sized by that.

tawk.to is closest at $758. They charge nothing per agent, so their completion meter takes them there instead.

Each vendor's own list prices, September 2026, in USD, on the cheapest plan that fits the seats and includes an AI agent. Monthly rates where published, so no annual discount. Volumes count the conversations the AI handles. Intercom is $0.99 a resolution, counted on every AI conversation as if Fin resolved them all, so their figure is the highest it can honestly be. Zendesk is $1.50 a resolution, their pre-buy rate rather than the $2.00 without, counted on every AI conversation less the five a month Suite Team includes. Crisp is $0.05 a conversation, from their own calculator, which caps Essentials at 1,000 before quoting Plus. Freshchat bills every session, AI or not, so their figure is understated. tawk.to's tiers and its $39 badge removal come from their help centre, not their pricing page. Credits are counted at three a conversation, our assumption. Chatwoot publishes no monthly rate, so theirs is annual. Credits are counted at three a conversation, our assumption. Check their pricing pages before you decide.

Yes, but all my data is on another helpdesk tool

Our migration tool brings your conversations and contacts across, with their original dates. It runs alongside your current helpdesk, not instead of it.

  • Conversations and contacts moved over, with their dates
  • Runs alongside your current helpdesk, not instead of it
  • Undo an import within 30 days. Your existing account stays untouched.
Migrate for free

One monthly subscription. A quota, not a meter.

Every plan contains the full product, starting with free. The only thing that moves as you scale is the number of conversations and seats. So the free tier is a genuine starting point, not a demo.

Tiers differ by AI volume, seats, how long history is kept and how many website pages the AI reads. Paid plans also remove our branding.

  • AI answers customers on its own
  • AI-drafted replies for your team
  • Replies in the language the customer wrote in
  • Live chat, email and web forms
  • Answers grounded in your own content
  • Knowledge base from your files and past replies
  • Shared inbox with customer history
  • REST API and MCP server

Price, quota, and seats are per workspace. Two websites means two workspaces and two plans.

Enterprise

Above 12,000 AI conversations a month, or when procurement is involved. Conversations stay unlimited; the AI allowance, the seats and the contract are ones we agree with you.

Straight answers.

No. It holds the full product and it does not expire. Paying buys you a bigger quota, more seats, and the removal of our branding from the live chat. Nothing you build on the free plan needs to be rebuilt when you upgrade.

One customer getting help. It does not matter how many messages that takes or which channel it arrives on. A thread that runs for a week is still one conversation.

Once the AI allowance is used up, the AI stops drafting and stops sending replies until it resets on your billing date, or until you move up a plan. Conversations keep arriving and your team keeps answering them: no plan caps conversations, and reading, searching and internal notes are untouched. No overage charge appears on the invoice.

Only if you turn it on, and only when it is confident and grounded in your own content. Every automated reply is recorded in the log, and any teammate can switch all of them off at once.

No. Your content is used to answer your customers. Nothing else.

Each site gets its own workspace: its own inbox, team, quota, and plan. You log in once and switch between them. One payment method covers them all.

One price. All of customer support.

Start free, no card. When you upgrade, every feature is included, rather than a starting point with a list of add-ons to buy.
