What is DoneDone?

DoneDone just opened a door for other systems to file work without a human.

DoneDone has spent the year sanding down its task and conversation surfaces: Kanban sort options and collapsible columns, assignee filtering, checklist template reordering, tags in CSV exports. Most releases are small and explicitly credited to customer requests. Two recent moves break that pattern — Workflow Automations in early August, and now per-project email addresses that create tasks automatically.

What is Gorgias?

From helpdesk-with-AI to AI-native helpdesk — Gorgias collapses its product story around the AI Agent.

Gorgias is publishing in dense bursts across three streams at once: AI-native product surfaces (MCP for Claude and ChatGPT, AI Agent pricing transparency, Helpdesk 2.0), original benchmark content (Ecom Lab, 2026 Conversational Commerce Report), and a steady ecommerce-support how-to library. The AI Agent is now the centerpiece; older helpdesk fundamentals get repositioned around it.

DoneDone just opened a door for other systems to file work without a human.

◆ Current state

DoneDone has spent the year sanding down its task and conversation surfaces: Kanban sort options and collapsible columns, assignee filtering, checklist template reordering, tags in CSV exports. Most releases are small and explicitly credited to customer requests. Two recent moves break that pattern — Workflow Automations in early August, and now per-project email addresses that create tasks automatically.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is moving from a place people manage work to a place work arrives and routes itself. Automations handle what happens when a task changes status; email intake handles how it gets created. Together they turn DoneDone into an endpoint other systems can drive, which matters more for its support and client-services users than any further board refinement.

◆ Prediction

The obvious next step is automation triggered by intake — routing rules on inbound email, or extending automations beyond status changes to assignment and escalation.

From helpdesk-with-AI to AI-native helpdesk — Gorgias collapses its product story around the AI Agent.

◆ Current state

Gorgias is publishing in dense bursts across three streams at once: AI-native product surfaces (MCP for Claude and ChatGPT, AI Agent pricing transparency, Helpdesk 2.0), original benchmark content (Ecom Lab, 2026 Conversational Commerce Report), and a steady ecommerce-support how-to library. The AI Agent is now the centerpiece; older helpdesk fundamentals get repositioned around it.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is from helpdesk-with-AI to AI-native helpdesk. MCP plus LLM-query workflows push Gorgias into agentic infrastructure territory; the Ecom Lab launch reads as a play for benchmark-authority as a moat; Gaia for Zendesk is a thinly veiled competitor-displacement tactic. Expect the product story to keep collapsing around the AI Agent.

◆ Prediction

Expect tighter packaging of AI Agent capability with benchmark data — plausibly a public Ecom Lab dashboard surfacing 'where you stand versus the Gorgias customer set' — and more free utilities aimed at users of competing helpdesks.
