Gorgias is the #1 Shopify helpdesk

With Gorgias, agents can manage orders, refunds, and more directly from the sidebar — no manual work required. Shopify-backed and fully integrated, Gorgias offers true automation, using Shopify data in Macros and Rules.

‍

Richpanel’s approach? Manual, limited, and lacking automated actions.

AI

Gorgias has an AI Agent — Richpanel doesn’t

Richpanel prominently mentions AI in their marketing, but their AI tool is basically ChatGPT with limited value, only helping agents expand or shorten drafts.

‍

Gorgias’s AI Agent is autonomous and a true part of your team. It answers emails like a human, with empathy and brand voice, to automatically resolve up to 60% of your emails. AI Agent can even connect to Shopify and other tools to update orders, manage subscriptions, and more.

Integrations

Connect your ecommerce tech stack

Gorgias focuses on high-quality integrations with tools most ecommerce brands use. Enjoy easy-to-set-up and deeper integrations with Klaviyo, Attentive, Loop Returns, Recharge, and 100+ additional apps.

Enterprise

Powerful enough for top Shopify Plus brands

40% of the 250 largest stores on Shopify choose Gorgias. Onboard with a full implementation team, custom integrations, advanced analytics, multi-brand and multi-language support, and more.

‍

Gorgias's 300+ engineers, success managers, and implementation experts deliver new, value-packed features for your success, while Richpanel operates with a team of just 30.

Support

Easy enough for small-but-mighty teams

Quickly become a Gorgias expert with an easy-to-setup platform, intuitive UI, tons of resources and templates, and a helpful support team available 24/7.

‍

Richpanel's small team means smaller brands have to figure things out on their own, while Enterprise tiers are prioritized. With Gorgias, Pro+ plans get the support of the Implementation, Support, and Success teams.

‍

Gorgias starts at $10/month for 3 agents. Richpanel starts at $9/month for 1 agent.
