The table below preserves each vendor’s scope and qualifiers. An unlisted feature is unverified here; it is not a claim that the feature is unavailable.
Before you decide
Intercom Fin: Outcome-based AI usage plus at least one Full seat when using Intercom. Standalone Fin has no seat, platform or setup fee, but requires a minimum monthly commitment. Confirm the contracted outcome volume, outcome definition and any channel charges. Yellow.ai: Custom Enterprise subscription with applicable usage and module charges. Free-plan allowances differ between the pricing page and billing documentation; confirm the included volume and chargeable-resolution definition before estimating cost. Ask both vendors to quote the same expected workload, required channels, and implementation scope. Include required subscriptions and usage charges before comparing the total; the listed starting prices alone may cover different work.
The recorded sources for Intercom Fin include Intercom Help Center; public URLs; internal articles; procedures. For Yellow.ai, they include knowledge bases; FAQs; CRM/ERP systems; documents; APIs. Ask each vendor to demonstrate ingestion or live access for the exact system you use, with permissions and refresh behavior. A source missing from this directory is not proof that a vendor cannot support it.
Use the same sample of real support requests, approved knowledge, and escalation rules in both pilots. Can it cite or restrict answers to approved knowledge? What happens when the agent is uncertain? Which actions can it complete beyond answering? Record answer quality, completed tasks, human handoffs, and total cost in the buyer worksheet. Check these specific cautions before launch: Intercom Fin: Total cost combines seat plan and AI outcomes; integrations and capabilities vary by plan. Yellow.ai: Quote-only; validate language quality, channel coverage and implementation scope for the target region.
