Gorgias is the #1 Shopify helpdesk

Shopify is an investor in Gorgias, and our entire platform has been built around Shopify from the very beginning.

Gorgias empowers ecommerce agents with a deep Shopify integration for workflows, macros, and custom sidebar views, while Kustomer’s limited integration risks inefficiency and data loss.

AI

Gorgias creates a more user-friendly experience for customers

Gorgias's AI Agent easily connects to all your brand knowledge and tools to instantly answer FAQs and make updates (like canceling orders or changing shipping addresses) — no complex code or logic required.

Kustomer's AI is much less impactful. You can't offer Actions or a workable Shopify integration to pull customer data or push order updates to resolve the issue fully.

Integrations

Connect your ecommerce tech stack

Gorgias is a one-tab tool. Connect all your ecommerce apps to sync data, build efficient workflows, and personalize responses directly in Gorgias.

Unlike Gorgias, Kustomer does not integrate with Smile.io, Attentive, LateShipment.com, Okendo, Omnisend, Narvar, ReturnLogic, Reviews.io, SMSBump, Postscript, ShipBob, or Skio without API configuration.

Enterprise

Powerful enough for top Shopify Plus brands

Gorgias is enterprise-ready.

Onboard on Gorgias’s secure and reliable platform smoothly with hands-on implementation, custom integrations, SMS support, advanced analytics and ticket management, support for multi-brand and multi-language, and more — that’s why 40% of the 250 largest stores on Shopify choose Gorgias.

Customer Support

Easy enough for small-but-mighty teams

Become a Gorgias expert with simple setup, easy UI designed around day-to-day tasks for ecommerce support teams, tons of resources and templates, and a helpful support team available 24/7.

Gorgias starts at $10/month for 3 agents, while Kustomer charges per user and resolution — $39/user for AI access, plus $0.75-0.45 per conversation.
