About Richpanel
Richpanel is bulking up — SLA management lands while a stream of e-commerce integrations widens the helpdesk's reach.
Richpanel is moving on two parallel tracks: shipping foundational helpdesk capability that enterprise buyers expect (SLA management, custom-domain help center, custom HTTP widgets, MCP connector for Claude) and stacking commerce integrations (SellerCloud, Appstle Subscriptions, JustCall, BigCommerce, ShipInsure, WhatsApp templates). The product is broadening from 'Shopify-friendly helpdesk' toward 'multi-channel commerce support platform.'
