Crisp
SoftwareAn all-in-one customer messaging suite with live chat, chatbots, and a shared inbox for small teams.

About Crisp
Crisp is an all-in-one, AI-first customer-support platform that brings every customer conversation — across chat, email, WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram and more — into one shared inbox, and uses AI to handle a big chunk of them automatically. Trusted by 10,000 companies including Air France and Decathlon, it's built to make small teams feel like big support departments.
What Crisp is
Crisp unifies customer messaging from a dozen-plus channels into a single inbox, adds an embeddable chat widget, a self-service knowledge base, a support-focused CRM and analytics, and layers AI agents on top. Its AI (including an assistant called Hugo) can resolve routine questions on its own, so human agents focus on the conversations that genuinely need them.
Who it's for
Crisp serves businesses of all sizes, from startups to enterprises — any team that talks to customers across multiple channels and wants those conversations in one place. It's especially valuable for smaller support teams that need to punch above their weight, and for companies whose customers reach out via chat and social apps as much as email.
What it offers
- No-code AI agents built with a workflow builder
- A shared inbox unifying 12+ channels
- Embeddable chat widget for web and mobile
- Self-service knowledge base / help center
- Support CRM with customer history
- Multi-channel support: WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, email and more
- Internal automations for team efficiency
- Analytics for performance and team efficiency
AI that handles the easy half
Crisp's headline promise is that its AI can resolve around half of customer inquiries automatically. The repetitive, common questions — where's my order, how do I reset this, what are your hours — get answered instantly by AI agents you build without code, while anything complex is handed to a human with full context. For a support team, offloading that routine half is the difference between drowning in tickets and actually helping people well.
Every channel, one conversation
Customers reach out wherever is convenient — web chat one day, WhatsApp or Instagram the next — and Crisp pulls all of it into a single shared inbox. Agents see the full history regardless of channel, so a customer never has to repeat themselves and the team never juggles a dozen separate apps. That unified view is what makes consistent, personal support possible even as the number of channels keeps growing.
Priced to grow with your team
Crisp uses flat-rate pricing designed to lower your cost per agent, which is unusual in a category that often charges steeply per seat. That model makes it especially attractive to growing teams, since adding agents doesn't cause the bill to balloon, and a 14-day free trial (no credit card) lets a company try the full suite first. Combined with an open API and developer hub, it fits both small setups and more custom deployments.
Help customers help themselves
Not every question needs an agent, and Crisp's knowledge base lets customers find answers on their own — a self-service help center that deflects common questions before they ever become tickets. Paired with the AI agents, this creates layers of support: customers self-serve for the simplest things, AI handles routine queries, and humans take the genuinely complex cases. For a growing business, that tiered approach keeps support quality high without hiring an agent for every new wave of customers.
Why choose Crisp
For businesses that want modern, multi-channel customer support with real AI automation — without enterprise complexity or per-seat pricing that punishes growth — Crisp is a strong choice. Its unified inbox, no-code AI agents, knowledge base, support CRM and flat-rate pricing make it a practical way to handle more conversations across more channels with the team you already have.
