Pricing: per resolution or flat

Per-resolution pricing is fair for support: you pay when the AI solves a problem. A real estate chat is different. The goal is not to close the chat without a human, but to get the serious buyer to an agent quickly. With Vesperdesk you pay a flat monthly fee with a message allowance, so handing a buyer to an agent never costs extra.

Where Intercom Fin is the better choice

If your agency already runs Intercom as its helpdesk, has a large help centre and a support team answering tickets, Fin plugs into that and is very capable. It is also the safer choice if you need a large vendor with many integrations today.

Where Vesperdesk is the better choice

If your chats are buyers asking about properties, Vesperdesk answers from the listing — price, availability, layout, viewings — and says so when the answer is not in your data instead of guessing. It is set up for you, it speaks the languages European buyers write in, and it runs in the EU.
