How it differs from traditional helpdesks

Traditional helpdesks like Gorgias and Zendesk are built around human agents. AI is a bolt-on feature with 30% to 40% deflection rates. Zipchat inverts this: AI is the primary responder. Humans handle exceptions. For high-volume DTC brands, this model delivers lower cost per ticket, faster response times, and CSAT scores equal to or above human-only teams.
