Problem

Resolution bills shouldn’t be a surprise

Resolution-based AI pricing makes support spend impossible to budget. Teams still need deflection; they just need a hard monthly ceiling.

Before

Fin/resolution bills jump unpredictably
Overage means automatic upcharge
Switching tools means losing history

After

Hard monthly cap you can budget
Overage can mean AI off — not a spike
One-click Intercom history import

Solution

What FlatDesk does

AI deflection you can put in a spreadsheet: seats, a hard monthly AI cap, and an exit hatch when volume spikes.

WHO

SMB SaaS with steady ticket volume, scared by Intercom/Zendesk AI usage or resolution pricing.

PROBLEM

AI helpdesk bills become unpredictable; teams still need answers without gambling on COGS.

SOLUTION

Flat seats + transparent monthly AI cap; over-cap AI can shut off; Intercom history import.

RESULT

Keep AI deflection and protect gross margin with a number finance already approved.

Features

Marketing points derived from the product hypothesis — for demand validation, not a formal spec promise.

🎚️

Hard monthly AI cap

Agree a monthly AI resolution / answer ceiling up front; usage is visible so month-end is not a surprise.

🛑

Cap = soft stop, not bill spike

Hit the cap? Turn off or degrade AI deflection — instead of automatic resolution upcharges that run away.

🧱

Flat seat pricing

Seats plus a transparent AI allowance — built for SMB teams with stable support volume.

📦

Intercom history import

One-click import of conversation history as a knowledge starting point (Intercom is the primary migration path).

🤖

Good-enough AI deflection

Deflect common FAQ / product questions — lower human load at a predictable cost, not unlimited resolutions.

FAQ

How is FlatDesk different from Intercom Fin / Zendesk AI?

Hard monthly AI cap and turn-off-on-cap — not resolution surprise billing.

How do you compare to Crisp / Plain / Chatbase?

We emphasize predictable caps plus an Intercom migration path, not a kitchen-sink feature list.

Do I have to come from Intercom?

No. Intercom import is the primary migration path; other sources follow the roadmap.

When is early access?

Batch email invites from the waitlist. No invented launch date.

Will this replace my entire helpdesk?
