Lots of apps use Intercom for user > business chat and do not want the KC bot icon to double up next to it. It would be great to be able to enable Intercom chat within the KC Bot.

As well as reaching out to the customer through an email, would be great to have the opportunity to initiate a 2 way chat between the CSM and the user of the tool. Similar to Intercom.

The chat would be initiated within the clients product that they are using and would be possible for them to open up a dialog with their CSM from within the tool.

Could use https://smooch.io/ SDK instead of building from scratch

Hi Sam,

Could you please add your use-case to understand better.

Thanks for posting!

When a user is active within the product, have the opportunity to start a conversation with your CSM. Similar to live chat on a website for sales purposes but instead a conversation between customer and CSM. We have heard that other CS Platforms are offering this.

@sam_buddery Thanks for sharing this! IThis is not in our current road-map. Will share this with our product team for more visibility.

Hi Sam, which other products are offering this? It feels very much like a support use case vs. a CSM use case though.

Hi @dan_ahrens this came up today with a competitor offering live chat via integration with Intercom. Do we have plans to bring this to the PX KC Bot? https://support.pendo.io/hc/en-us/articles/360032209531-Live-Chat-Integration
