About Tool

Gladly AI focuses on treating customers like individuals—not ticket numbers. The platform unifies all interactions (chat, email, voice, SMS, social, etc.) into a single, lifelong conversation per customer. Through its AI tools, common queries can be handled automatically, while more complex issues are escalated to live agents seamlessly. The system is built to give agents full customer context, emotional intelligence, and control over responses. It aims for both operational efficiency and deeply personal customer service, helping brands maintain loyalty, reduce customer effort, and scale support without losing touch.

Key Features

• Single customer timeline: all past interactions and history visible to agents regardless of channel.
• Omnichannel support: unify chat, email, voice, SMS, social media under one platform.
• Customer AI (e.g., “Sidekick”): automates answers to frequent questions, suggests next best actions, supports self-service.
• Brand voice guides: lets you define how AI should speak and when to hand off to human agents.
• Rich customer profiles: purchase history, preferences, past issues, sentiment, etc., for more contextual service.
• Analytics & dashboards: performance reporting, CSAT tracking, insights into customer needs and support metrics.

Pros:

• Makes support feel more personal by reducing friction and repetition for customers.
• Helps agents by giving full context reduces time spent switching between tools or digging through logs.
• Automates common queries, freeing human agents to work on complex issues.
• Strong ability to maintain brand voice and consistency in conversations.

Cons:

• Onboarding, training, and configuration (defining voice guidelines, integrating channels) can require effort before full value is realized.
• Some features may be overkill for very small teams with simple support needs.
• Pricing is not openly published and tends to require contacting Gladly for quotes—could be expensive for smaller businesses.

Who is Using?

• Retail and e-commerce brands that need to support customers across channels and maintain relationships.
• Consumer-facing businesses that want high CSAT and loyalty.
• Support teams that want to move beyond ticketing and create seamless conversations.
• Companies that want strong automation and AI assistance while preserving human involvement and brand consistency.

Pricing

• Pricing is custom / enterprise-oriented; you usually need to request demo / quote.
• Likely based on scale: number of agents, channels, volume of interactions, AI use vs human support ratio.
• No standard free plan (or very limited) — aimed at mid-to-large businesses investing in CX tools.

What Makes It Unique?
Gladly stands out because it’s built around people, not tickets, meaning every conversation is tied to the customer rather than discrete support cases. Its AI supports assisted service rather than replacing the human touch, and the long-term conversation model helps with loyalty and personalization in a way traditional ticket systems can’t match.
