You can now configure Fin to send email replies from a specified address within your company’s domain, e.g. fin@yourcompany.com or support@yourcompany.com

This provides greater flexibility in managing your email settings and means that, if you are using Fin over email, Teammate replies are no longer limited to being sent from the ‘inbound address’.

Please note that Fin’s email address must be verified and have automatic forwarding enabled, so that emails sent to this address are routed into Intercom, where Fin can read and reply to them.

Batch test now helps you check answers across brands, users, languages, and automations - so you know what to expect from Fin before you go live.

• User simulation: Test how Fin responds for different customers based on language, plan, or location.
• Test groups: Save and organize your test runs to easily revisit your work
• Language and translation settings: Set or update language preferences so Fin’s responses show up as expected.
• Automation visibility: See when Fin Tasks, Custom answers, or Data connectors would trigger - and make changes if needed.
• Multibrand testing: Run the same questions across multiple brands to spot brand-specific gaps.

We’ve introduced a new way to authenticate users in the Messenger, using JSON Web Tokens (JWTs).

This update replaces the previous Identity Verification (IdV) method with features designed to protect user data.

With JWTs, you benefit from:

✅ Data protection — Sign and protect both user ID and email, along with any other user attributes.

✅ Short-lived tokens — JWTs can be set to expire, reducing the risk of misuse for compromised tokens.

If you’re using Identity Verification, migrate to JWTs to benefit from these improvements. Identity Verification will continue to work, but is considered deprecated and will not receive future updates.

You’ll find the new JWT configuration in the Security tab within your Messenger settings.

Get more control over Fin's behavior by customizing guidance for different audiences. When setting up guidance, you can now select Audiences to target specific customer segments. This ensures that Fin only uses guidance for users who match the selected audience, and ignores it for those who don’t—resulting in more accurate and tailored answers.

Head to Fin Guidance in your workspace to explore the latest improvements.

You can now manage the ‘Powered by Intercom’ link in the footer of your emails and Help Center articles from within Email settings.

This option used to be in Messenger settings, but it’s now in a more relevant place.

To switch it on or off, go to Email settings and look for the ‘Link to Intercom website’ toggle.

Note: This setting applies to both email footers and Help Center articles. It’s not currently possible to have the link switched on in one and off in the other.

You can now authenticate Data Connectors using third-party user tokens (like JWTs) managed by your customers. This new authentication type makes it easier to securely connect and verify users when triggering Data Connectors.
​

Fin now protects sensitive operations by verifying customers’ email addresses with a one-time passcode before retrieving or updating data in external systems. Fin sends a code to the customer’s email, and once entered in the conversation, completes the Data Connector — ensuring only users who verified their email can access or update information.

You can now:

• Bcc email addresses into email conversations, to aid internal communication and streamline workflows while ensuring privacy.
• See and control who is in the ‘To’, ‘Cc’ and ‘Bcc’ field of emails sent from the inbox.
• Put multiple people in each field.

Please note: Bcc’d addresses don’t count as conversation participants as they’re invisible to everyone else on the email, so won’t be included in any replies.

You can now track SLA performance across every ticket category including back-office and tracker tickets. Previously, SLA reports only covered customer tickets and conversations.
​
You can also filter, segment and view SLA metrics by ticket type, giving you more control and clarity in your reporting.
​

You can now sort your Inbox by any sortable Conversation or Ticket attribute — right alongside classic options like Last activity and Waiting since.
​

The status and sort buttons are also now more compact for a better fit on smaller screens, and switching sort order is easier with the new sort direction button.
