About Intercom

Intercom pushes Fin to be a controllable, email-complete AI support agent

Intercom is a customer-support platform centered on Fin, its AI support agent, plus the Messenger and human-agent tooling. The recent feed is dominated by a coordinated push to make Fin email-complete — channel-specific guidance, autonomous follow-ups, multi-participant and CC rules, spam handling, and a preview/testing harness — alongside Messenger and ops improvements like live queue position, SLA settings, granular attachment permissions, and a Banners API.
