August was release month. Most of what we shipped came together in Got Your Back: our autumn release about having your back at every size of support operation.

Big product updates

🛡️ The Got Your Back release

Our autumn release in three themes: Made Easy, Going Pro, and AI Native. One overview video, all the features below, and a few we’ve been polishing all year. See the release page

🌊 Flow: one conversation at a time

A focus mode that hands each agent the next prioritised conversation instead of letting everyone pick from the pile. Managers define the order; serving claims the conversation so nobody doubles up. Read more

⏱️ Service level agreements

Set first-reply, next-reply and resolution targets, and watch them count down live on every matching conversation, measured in calendar hours or your own business hours, with automatic escalation on a breach. Read more

✨ Copilot just got much bigger

Copilot moved out of the conversation sidebar and now follows you across the whole app: searching conversations, looking up orders and CRM records across every integration, and proposing actions that run when you confirm them. Read more

✍️ Central email signature management

Admins can now manage the whole organisation’s email signatures per inbox (merge fields, conditional blocks, live preview and a test send) instead of leaving each agent to build their own. Read more

Other product updates

  • Insert product links in replies: search your webshop’s products by name, SKU or ID from the editor and drop the link straight into your answer. Read more
  • Contact and tag sync: two-way sync of contact fields and tags with Shopify, HubSpot and Business Central. Read more
  • Contact merge suggestions: likely duplicates surface as suggested merges you apply in one click. Read more
  • Export conversation search results to CSV, optionally one row per message. Read more
  • Conversations can now be assigned to a person, a team, or both
  • Public replies to Facebook and Instagram comments can now @-mention the commenters in the thread
  • Rules: new notify-user and notify-team actions that alert the recipient by in-app, push and email
  • REST API and MCP: SLA policies and schedules are now manageable programmatically
