Fin comes with a 90-day money-back guarantee. Here's how it works:
Intercom states that users who sign up for the Fin Guarantee Success Program and do not achieve at least a resolution rate of 65% will be paid $1M. This program is designed for high volume customers.
Eligibility criteria:
High volume customers (over 250k monthly conversions) in North America and Europe. Intercom states that phase one of this program will admit customers on Intercom Helpdesk or Zendesk.
OpenMarket is well suited to support enterprise SMS at scale, with a wholesale and flexible solution. Their provisioning team is great in terms of response time, and support for their products is deeply rooted in industry and technological understanding of SMS. OpenMarket would not be well suited for small companies just starting to test the waters with SMS in a low barrier way.
Any company should be able to implement Fin and start seeing some results straight away. The 0% - 10/15% resolution benchmark is easily able to be done using the existing conversation history. Once you want to start seeing higher resolution rates you need to give Fin the ability to solve conversations with similar tools to what your team use. This means taking advantage of Fin Tasks, utilising their MCP features to connect Fin to other tools, taking advantage of Procedures so that Fin is able to resolve conversations in the order that you expect it to. This all takes a considerable amount of time, so to see "results" here, you need to also invest by moving resourcing so that someone is always working on making Fin better. But it's not a slogan, AI is the future of customer service, not because we want to speak to our customers less but because we want to free up our team so they can spend time with our customers on the issues that actually require dedicated attention.
OpenMarket does most things well. One thing they are missing is MMS capabilities on text enabled long numbers.
The portal for entering shortcode program briefs is kind of clunky, it would be nice is account managers took the Word document and imported it into the tool for clients.
It seems some users really struggle to figure out how to escalate to a human (especially through email).
Not excited about how "soft" resolutions still count as resolutions and are paid for. Though some abandoned cases appear to be able to be concluded as "the user got the answer they needed", there are others where they clearly didn't, because they just open up another chat (or even more), trying to get more info. This pads the resolution stats and makes it seem more effective than it actually is.
Cost -- Fin is quite expensive. It helps us with scaling coverage, but we're not really saving money.
We have been and will be continuing our journey with Intercom and nothing too concerning has happened that I have experienced or heard of that has us on the edge yet. If it ever happens it will be something along the lines of "Outgrowing" the use of need of the platform.
Fin is extremely user friendly and was very easy to set up, and this is coming from someone who has never used any technology like this before. Fin was easy to customise to the way we wanted this to be, set up specific messages to our customers through Fin, customise the tone and content used as well as configure Fin's handovers to a human when required
Intercom is the premier customer support/engagement model and it definitely has one of the top tier customer support teams as well. I don't think I have ever waited more than 5 minutes to get the information I need or get help with an issue. They are incredible and I aim to model our customer service department after them.
As a top tier aggregator, OpenMarket requires contracts to utilize their services, whereas other SaaS providers allow users to signup and start sending within a shorter amount of time. The benefit of using OpenMarket is the relationship, and the SLAs in availability they maintain. Other aggregators offer equal levels of service, so there are other shops in town selling the same thing with the same reliability.
I've tried several AI chatbots before when using Zendesk. We found that the native Zendesk AI was expensive, but the best compared to "alternatives" such as Chatbase, My AskAI, and Macha. Then, we decided to switch over to Intercom for the startup program. WOW!!! Fin blows away any other AI bot on the market. Even if you're not using Intercom as a platform (you should), I highly recommend you use Fin. We've never had this high of CSAT or resolution with an AI bot before; our customers love Fin
New role opportunities — Using the “Fin-first” approach has reduced the workload for our Tier 1 team, giving them more time to focus on their own career growth. It’s also opened the door to a dedicated, AI-focused role, where a team member regularly reviews Fin’s answers and makes updates to help it perform even better.
Enabling Fin has also reduced our response time and allowed us to meet SLA's.
