FAQ

initdesk is an AI help desk for small teams. It brings customer data into every ticket, turns feedback into Linear issues, and uses AI for drafts, tags, help center answers, and support conversations. A support inbox refers to a shared queue where teams triage, reply to, and learn from customer conversations without switching between separate tools.

initdesk was built for modern and small/medium-sized teams — SaaS companies, SMBs, indie hackers, and solo founders managing one or more products. No per-seat billing that punishes growth, no AI as a paid add-on, no enterprise complexity you'll never need. Everything is included: AI drafts, help center, auto-tagging, and routing. Just connect your email and run support the way it should work.

No. Setup takes just a few minutes — connect your email, name your organization, and you're live. No technical knowledge required. Check how to get started.

Yes, there's a 14-day free trial — no credit card required. After the trial, if no subscription is active, your organization will be deleted. Learn more about inactivity and deletion of trial organizations in our Terms of Service. Your user account will remain active after organization deletion until you explicitly request account removal.

Pricing starts at $3.49/mo for up to 100 tickets. Unlimited users, unlimited inboxes, and AI are included. You pay based on support volume, not team size. See pricing details.

Yes! With BYOD (Bring Your Own Data), you can connect any API endpoint to display custom data directly in the ticket sidebar. Customer details, order history from your admin panel, or usage metrics from your backend — it all shows up right next to the conversation. You design the panel using our built-in templates and UI components, and the data is also available to our AI for smarter draft replies. No middleware, no custom apps needed.

Yes. We'd like to understand which platform you use today and help evaluate the best way to migrate your conversation history, inboxes, and workflows safely.
