Intercom Fin — #1 in Customer service

## Alternatives in Customer service

- #2 **Zendesk** — Zendesk · No free plan
   Why it ranks here: AI agents included in every plan, 80 languages, a Portuguese site and published monthly prices; it sits behind Fin because the entry plan excludes chat and messaging and extra resolutions cost more.
   Official site: https://www.zendesk.com

- #3 **Octadesk** — Octadesk · No free plan
   Why it ranks here: A natively Portuguese product combining an AI agent, knowledge base, helpdesk and official WhatsApp with prices published in reais; it sits behind the global tools due to its high entry price and mandatory consulting priced on request.
   Official site: https://www.octadesk.com

- #4 **Tidio** — Tidio · Has a free plan
   Why it ranks here: It has a permanent free plan, published prices and Lyro with Portuguese, making it accessible to small businesses; it sits lower because Lyro is billed separately by conversation quota and guaranteed autonomy only appears on the top plan.
   Official site: https://www.tidio.com

- #5 **Crisp** — Crisp IM SAS · Has a free plan
   Why it ranks here: It has a permanent free plan, a 14-day trial with no card and published monthly prices per workspace, with AI tied to the knowledge base; it sits behind Tidio because the official site doesn't confirm Portuguese for the AI agent and WhatsApp only comes from the US$95/month plan.
   Official site: https://crisp.chat

- #6 **Zaia** — Zaia · No free plan
   Why it ranks here: Natively Portuguese and strong on WhatsApp for AI-agent support, but it trails the platforms above because it has no permanent free plan (only a 7-day trial that requires a card).
   Official site: https://zaia.app

- #7 **Zenvia** — Zenvia · No free plan
   Why it ranks here: Native in Portuguese, with a helpdesk, knowledge base, official WhatsApp and published monthly prices in reais; it sits lower because the official pages disagree on which plan includes generative AI (from Specialist or only Enterprise) and there's an activation fee and a separate channel package.
   Official site: https://zenvia.com

- #8 **Blip** — Blip
   Why it ranks here: A mature conversational-support platform with a strong enterprise presence in Brazil and native Portuguese support, but prices aren't published (sales-led) and it can be too complex for small users.
   Official site: https://www.blip.ai
