{"id":83601,"title":"Parahelp - The AI support agent for software companies","tagline":"Helping leading CX teams at Perplexity and Captions.","body":"**TL;DR** - [Parahelp](https://parahelp.com/) is an AI support agent for software companies that resolves support tickets end-to-end.\n\n**For example:** When a customer requests a refund, Parahelp can automatically look up subscription details, process the refund in the payment system if eligible, and respond to the customer.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=83601\u0026key=user_uploads/1759533/af0fff3f-d445-455f-bde8-c770f1389f1f)\n\n**Problem**\n\nMost CX teams have tried a chatbot solution that didn't move the needle in production.\n\nThis is because resolving tickets end-to-end, such as billing inquiries and technical issues, requires using multiple tools to look up customer data (subscription status in RevenueCat, platform details in Retool, etc.) and execute relevant actions (process refunds in Stripe, create bug reports in Linear, etc.).\n\n**Solution**\n\nWe've built Parahelp as an AI agent that works with CX teams' existing tools to reliably resolve support tickets end-to-end in production.\n\nParahelp can be highly customized to the team’s knowledge and processes and implemented in days, not months.\n\nOur state-of-the-art agent infrastructure enables our AI support agent to:\n\n* Be human-level empathetic and engaging\n* Quickly adapt to product and company changes\n* Take actions in tools like Stripe, Retool, and Linear\n* Work directly in Intercom and Zendesk\n\n**Results**\n\nWe're already helping leading CX teams at Captions and Perplexity. Together with Captions, we’ve created a [case study](https://parahelp.com/customers/captions) about how Parahelp was resolving 46% of all their support tickets within 7 days of implementation.\n\n**Ask**\n\nWe'd love to chat if you're a software company looking to implement an AI solution for your support operations!\n\nBook a demo with us here: \u003chttps://cal.com/mads/parahelp-demo\u003e.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=83601\u0026key=user_uploads/1759533/0fb2454c-af68-4ddc-8a84-41447cea3628)\n\n","slug":"LkP-parahelp-the-ai-support-agent-for-software-companies","created_at":"2024-08-29T20:23:26.320Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T01:45:23.465Z","total_vote_count":24,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/LkP-parahelp-the-ai-support-agent-for-software-companies","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=83601\u0026key=user_uploads/1759533/0fb2454c-af68-4ddc-8a84-41447cea3628","company":{"id":29684,"name":"Parahelp","slug":"parahelp","url":"https://parahelp.com/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/4d8bd41bea120a97058cce60e2d04af90f42a4c8.png","batch":"Summer 2024","industry":"B2B","tags":[],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/29684"}}
