SupaCortex vs Intercom Fin: what is the real difference?

Fin is a customer-facing AI agent. It is deeply integrated with Intercom's messenger, inbox and help centre, can be used on some other help desks, resolves conversations on its own, and is priced per resolution. SupaCortex is a knowledge assistant that serves several audiences from one set of documents: customers through a website or in-app widget, agents through cited reply drafts that a person sends, staff through team chat, and your own tools through an API. It is priced by plan with monthly AI credits.

  • Fin: deepest inside Intercom; also offered on other desks.
  • Fin: autonomous resolution, priced per resolution.
  • SupaCortex: drafts in the desk - a person sends.
  • SupaCortex: the same knowledge answers staff in team chat.
  • SupaCortex: plans with monthly AI credits; visitors never count as seats.

Where each wins

Being straight about it

Where Fin is the better choice

If your support runs on Intercom, Fin is the obvious first thing to try.

  • You already use Intercom's messenger and inbox, and want AI with no integration work.
  • You want an agent that resolves conversations end to end, not one that drafts.
  • You need voice, WhatsApp or social channels answered by AI today.
  • Paying only when a conversation is resolved suits your volumes.

Where SupaCortex is the better choice

Teams come to us when the knowledge has to serve more than the support inbox.

  • You do not want to move your help desk to get AI answers.
  • Your own staff need the same cited answers as your customers.
  • You want a person to send every help-desk reply, with the sources in front of them.
  • You prefer a predictable plan with credits to a bill that grows with every resolution.

Frequently asked

Questions people ask before they start

No. Fin is deepest inside Intercom's own help desk and messenger, and Intercom also offers it on other help desks such as Zendesk and Salesforce. SupaCortex works with UnifyDesk built in and with any desk that calls its Draft API.

On the website widget it answers customers directly, with citations. In the help desk it drafts replies and a person sends them - SupaCortex does not send help-desk replies automatically today. If you want an agent that closes tickets end to end without a person, Fin is further along.

Fin is priced per resolution (check Intercom's pricing page for the current rate and what counts). SupaCortex plans include monthly AI credits: an answer costs 1 credit, a draft 3, and search is free. Which is cheaper depends on your volume - model both.

Yes. Team chat lets signed-in staff ask across all the workspace's knowledge, with citations. That internal use is a core part of SupaCortex rather than an add-on.
