Migrate from Intercom to FoundChat without losing your knowledge.

Move FAQ deflection and product Q&A to FoundChat while you keep Intercom for inbox/outbound if you still need the suite or shut Fin down once coverage is solid. Export Fin knowledge and macros you still trust, parallel-run one to two weeks on docs and pricing pages, then downgrade Fin only when unanswered topics fall.


Why teams switch

Why migrate from Intercom.

Fin / platform cost

Resolution-based or premium AI packaging can outgrow early SaaS budgets. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

You mainly need website agents

If outbound and full inbox are unused, a lighter deflection layer is enough. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

Want multi-model credits

FoundChat publishes credit pools and per-agent model choice from $9/month. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.


How to migrate

Step-by-step cutover.

01

Inventory your Intercom knowledge

Export or copy public help articles, macros that encode policy answers, and Fin knowledge sources you still trust. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

02

Train a FoundChat support agent

Add website URLs, PDFs, and Q&A pairs. Configure support focus, personality, and escalation workflows. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

03

Embed on high-intent pages

Deploy the widget on docs, pricing, and product pages first where Intercom Fin was answering FAQs. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

04

Parallel run, then cut over

Run FoundChat alongside Intercom for 1–2 weeks. Compare unanswered topics, then remove Fin or the Intercom messenger where FoundChat owns the job. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.


Keep in mind

What does not migrate automatically.

Inbox is not replaced automatically

FoundChat is not a full Intercom teammate inbox. Keep Intercom if outbound series are core. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

Re-verify sensitive answers

Billing and security macros should be re-added as curated Q&A, not assumed from crawl alone. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.


FAQ

Migrating from Intercom FAQ

Can I migrate from Intercom Fin only?

Yes. Many teams keep Intercom for human inbox and replace Fin-like website deflection with FoundChat.

How long does migration take?

Most teams train and embed in under an hour, then spend a week reviewing conversations before cutting over.

Will conversation history import?

Historical Intercom threads do not import as chat history. Bring forward knowledge (articles, FAQs), not the full transcript archive.
