About HelpCrunch
HelpCrunch is rebuilding around AI Agents while keeping the multichannel-inbox basics tight.
HelpCrunch's recent year is anchored by the AI Agents launch (August 2025) and a follow-up upgrade (March 2026) that added multi-source answer synthesis and stronger underlying models. Around that, the team is shipping inbox permissions, custom-domain branding for transcripts and resends, popup display logic, mobile chat search and steady SDK stability work. Cadence is monthly-ish with chunky bundled releases.
