The honest brief

Fin

Outcome pricing — $0.99 only when it resolves — and runs on top of Zendesk, Salesforce, or Freshdesk, not just Intercom.

  • Pay per resolution, not per seat
  • No migration off your current helpdesk
  • Multi-channel: chat, email, voice, social
  • Performance guarantee on resolution targets
  • $0.99/resolution adds up at high volume
  • Real-world resolution rates below marketing
  • 50-resolution monthly minimum
  • Quality depends on help-center content

Pylon

Built B2B-first — shared Slack and Teams channels are first-class support queues, not an afterthought bolted onto a B2C helpdesk.

  • Unifies email, chat, and community too
  • Support + CS + engineering in one
  • AI agent grounded in your docs
  • Modern alternative to legacy desks
  • No free tier; 3-seat minimum
  • Per-seat pricing adds up
  • Younger ecosystem than incumbents
