AI-first customer service with a natively integrated AI agent
An AI agent trained specifically for customer service that resolves routine and increasingly complex multi-step queries across every channel.
Chat, email, phone, and messaging conversations arrive in one shared inbox with ticketing built for collaboration across teams.
An assistant that proactively surfaces context from connected systems and handles admin work without leaving the conversation view.
Centralize and measure the content behind AI and self-serve support, with suggestions on what to fix and one-click actions.

Agents open the repository, form a plan, edit multiple files and explain the changes so you can review each diff before accepting it. You can also run several agents in parallel to push a backlog forward.
Point the editor at Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft or open-weight models, or bring your own key. Pick the Copilot, Claude or Codex harness that matches how you like to work.
JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML and CSS work out of the box, and Marketplace extensions add IntelliSense, linting, refactoring and debuggers for Python, Java, C++, Go, Rust and more.
Integrated terminal, source control, debugger, testing, Jupyter notebooks, an integrated browser and Dev Containers all live in one window, so you stay close to the code.
