What it is
Pylon is a customer support platform built for B2B companies.
What you'd use it for
You would use Pylon if you support other businesses: it tracks support across shared Slack channels, Microsoft Teams, email, and in-app chat, with AI built in.
Examples of use
A B2B company supports customers in shared Slack channels. Pylon tracks that support so nothing gets lost in the chat.
Support comes in over Microsoft Teams and email. Pylon handles both together in one platform.
A SaaS product has in-app chat. Pylon manages that support channel alongside the rest.
A team is using a helpdesk built for consumer support that does not fit B2B. They replace it with Pylon.
B2B support replies need writing and sorting. Pylon's built-in AI helps draft and triage them.
A B2B company has customer conversations spread across messaging channels. Pylon keeps them organised in one place.
How it works
Pylon unifies B2B support channels, including shared Slack and Teams channels, into one platform with AI features. Detailed model architecture is not disclosed.
How it compares
Pylon positions itself as a modern alternative to Zendesk and Intercom for B2B companies, where those suites grew up around consumer support.
