ChatGPT vs. Fin by Intercom

I’d definitely recommend ChatGPT to anyone as a great introduction to generative AI and as a starting point in research, writing, brainstorming, or general questions or judgement questions. It can be a great tool to use when you don’t necessarily need an accurate answer. For example, I wouldn’t let it calculate my taxes, but I’d use it to ask some general tax questions, then ask for sources and then verify by checking those sources. I also love ChatGPT for writing and questions - it’s great for emails, creating templates and outlines, and for generating spreadsheet formulas.

While Fin is an awesome investment, the setup and tuning of responses to meet brand alignment and delivery have taken some time. If you prioritize not just resolution rate and accuracy, but style and delivery, it's a bigger lift. However, for the vast majority of businesses, the step and its impact on resource management are a worthy investment.

• Saves time by generating content about a specific topic very quickly
• Allows us to quickly learn information online (from various sources or even a single lengthy article) into more summed up digestible paragraphs (and even bullet points)
• Can autogenerate content on a vast amount of topics

• Great UI - everyone has their own inbox but can still see all incoming messages.
• Fin AI - we love the AI functionality, it saves tons of time of the team.
• Automated emails - we configured Intercom in a way that it uses a lot of information we have about our users (e.g. their subscription, date of upgrade, etc.) so that we can use it to automate communication.

• Wish it had support for better slides generation. Sometimes we found ourselves using chatgpt to outline a presentation but build it ourselves or use a tool like Gamma
• Maybe a chepear $10 plan. In some countries the US dollar can be expensive and $20 goes a long way.
• I wish you could make projects with more files. They limit it. Or make the limit based on the content, not the number of files per se

• Some things are repetitive. Ex: If you provide guidance to ask a follow-up question, it'll ask that follow-up question each time.
• It'd be cool to have a "vibe" check for auto-sorting. Ex: We have responses to our outreach feed into Intercom. It'd be cool to have a way to auto-sort based on if they ask a detailed question or just a plain "interested" response.
• It'd be cool if Fin by Intercom flagged conversations, like it a customer seemed agitated, for the team to review.

ChatGPT is a powerful assistant. As long as you understand what it is you're looking for in its results, it can save you a lot of time due to its ability to do the heavy lifting for you. This frees your time up to enable you to concentrate on other tasks.

It's currently a perfect fit for our needs, and we are customer-focused and small. When we grow, we may need to re-evaluate, but our current team finds it easy. Reviewing conversations is simple and allows for great training. The canned replies make service fast and easy. Smart suggestions remove the need to re-write technical walkthroughs and explanations for our FAQ

Most of the time is up. Seldom do you find a down service. It also has improved in token generation (the speed at which it prints answers) so it's usability is pretty much great all the time. Images do take a bit to generate but nothing that breaks anything. New additions like Projects, custom prompts, and some privacy settings improve experience

It takes a bit of getting used to. It's easy to start off with simple pieces of answering queries, etc. The real part is when one tries to use workflows with triggers and automation. Then, it can be a whole different experience. I would love to see it being much simpler in terms of usability there.

Their responses are always professional , although they delay sometimes

Intercom is the premier customer support/engagement model and it definitely has one of the top tier customer support teams as well. I don't think I have ever waited more than 5 minutes to get the information I need or get help with an issue. They are incredible and I aim to model our customer service department after them.

The implementation was surprisingly easy but we are having to adapt from our old process to work well with Intercom.

Where ChatGPT is better: ChatGPT has significantly more use cases - it's much more versatile. Some aspects of ChatGPT's user experience are better than Claude's. I prefer ChatGPT's results presentation compared to Claude's. Where Claude excels: Claude is a more skilled writer than ChatGPT. Some aspects of Claude's user experience are better than ChatGPT's. Its image, audio, and video translations are better than ChatGPT's.

In my experience, what Intercom has done with Fin by Intercom is far more innovative and forward thinking than other tools I've used. It's intuitive, easy, and they are always releasing new things to make Fin by Intercom even more powerful.

• Positive: Speeds up research time (freeing up 1-2 hours per day)
• Positive: Provides complex content in digestible formats
• Positive: Allows us to get super granular, including asking it coding questions
• Positive: Allows us to ask learning-style questions where it can further break something down for us

• I like how I don't feel like I need to constantly be monitoring support, especially on weekends
• It's great that the user will get some response right away, I just need to hope that the response they do get is good enough if I'm awk
