Research and provide insights to all Intercom entities

Examples: Automating Intercom Research & Insights with Tonkean

For enterprise operations professionals in IT, procurement, or legal, the challenge of extracting actionable insights from Intercom can be daunting. With vast amounts of customer conversations, tickets, and knowledge base articles spread across multiple entities, manual research is slow, error-prone, and inconsistent. Tonkean's "Search Intercom Agent" template solves these pain points by orchestrating and automating the process of searching, aggregating, and sharing Intercom insights—without the need for custom code.

1. Centralized Search Across All Intercom Entities

Operations teams often need to research customer issues, track support trends, or audit compliance across Intercom. Traditionally, this requires logging into Intercom, running multiple manual searches, and piecing together information from tickets, conversations, and articles. With Tonkean, you can automate this process using the data source integrations capability. The "Search Intercom Agent" pulls data from all Intercom entities—such as users, conversations, tickets, and help center articles—into a unified workflow. This allows teams to:

  • Quickly surface all conversations related to a specific customer or topic.
  • Aggregate ticket histories for compliance or legal audits.
  • Identify recurring issues by searching across all support interactions.

2. Automated Research & Reporting Workflows

Tonkean's no-code process builder empowers operations professionals to create automated research workflows. For example, a legal team can set up a workflow to automatically search for all conversations mentioning a specific contract or compliance keyword, summarize the findings, and send a report to stakeholders via email or Slack. Similarly, IT teams can automate the aggregation of support tickets related to a recent software update, enabling rapid root cause analysis and response.

By leveraging Tonkean's automation platform, teams can:

  • Schedule recurring research tasks (e.g., weekly summaries of customer complaints).
  • Trigger research on-demand based on incoming requests from Slack, Microsoft Teams, or email.
  • Automatically share insights with relevant business groups, ensuring everyone has access to up-to-date information.

3. Enhanced Collaboration & Knowledge Sharing

Tonkean's collaborative intake and custom portal features allow teams to request Intercom research or insights through user-friendly interfaces. For example, procurement teams can request a summary of all vendor-related support tickets, while HR can search for employee onboarding questions raised in Intercom. The agent handles the search, compiles the findings, and delivers them in a standardized format, reducing bottlenecks and ensuring consistency.

4. Integrating with the Broader Tech Stack

Tonkean doesn't just automate Intercom research—it orchestrates it alongside your entire enterprise stack. Connect Intercom with tools like Salesforce, Jira, or Google Sheets to enrich insights, trigger follow-up actions, or update records automatically. For instance, after identifying a recurring customer issue in Intercom, Tonkean can automatically create a Jira ticket for engineering, update the relevant Salesforce account, and notify the account manager—all in one seamless workflow.

We've taken our cycle time from 19 days to 10. We've dramatically reduced the time it takes to sift through all of these orders that are coming through via email, via Slack and other web forms. It's created all of that efficiency, allowing our teams to do more with a lot less. We're thrilled about having Tonkean in-house.

“Our relationship with the legal and compliance team has drastically improved. It’s now a trusted partnership. I think that’s been a huge benefit, and something I’m looking forward to is just allowing people to do what they’re hired to do, rather than having to focus on manual tasks.”
