  • A friendlier and more engaging launcher for the Intercom Messenger
  • Auto Messaging visitors based on their behavior on your website (Pro)
  • Insights into conversation volume, visitor auto message performance, and how they benchmark against other Intercom customers’ (Pro)

Here is a quick video to show you how they work:

When you reply to a user or contact's message and they're not on your site or in your app, they'll receive your response via email. We've standardized the look of email replies so they're consistent, casual, and personal. Here's how they look:

This new design will be used in all cases except for when a user replies to a plain email. In this case, the plain email template will be used for the admin's reply for consistency.

For customers on our product, you can now automatically assign conversations to the right team or teammate with Assignment Rules.

Assignment Rules can be based on the content of the message and anything Intercom tracks about who it's coming from. This means you no longer need to waste time manually triaging messages, and your customers will get the best response, faster. Watch this quick video to see how it works, learn more in our docs, and create your first Assignment Rule.

When a customer starts a new conversation they will now see the new App Profile Card which shows the last three active teammates from your company, and how recently they were last active.

During a conversation, sent messages are initially marked as ‘Not seen yet’. You can learn more about when we mark a message as ‘Seen’ in our docs.
