Gorgias

Helpdesk built for Shopify merchants

Gorgias is a customer support tool for E-commerce and Small businesses, offered as paid ($10/mo). Founded in United States in 2015. Popular alternatives include Juphy.

About Gorgias

Gorgias is a help desk built specifically for e-commerce brands, especially those on Shopify. The company was founded in Paris and is now based in San Francisco. Its core idea is that support agents should see and act on order data inside every conversation: tickets from email, live chat, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, SMS and voice appear in one inbox next to the customer's orders, and agents can edit orders, issue refunds or apply discounts without switching to the store admin.

Rules and macros automate repetitive work such as tagging, routing and replying to order status questions, and the AI Agent can resolve common requests like "where is my order", returns and product questions on its own, billed per automated resolution. Gorgias also tracks revenue generated through support conversations, so teams can show sales influenced by chat. Pricing is based on billable tickets per month rather than agent seats, starting with a small Starter plan and scaling through Basic, Pro and Advanced to custom Enterprise tiers.

Gorgias fits Shopify, BigCommerce and Magento brands with seasonal spikes, because adding agents for peak periods does not raise the bill. Costs grow with ticket volume, and the AI Agent is a separate charge. It is less suited to SaaS or B2B support, where Zendesk, Help Scout or Intercom offer better knowledge bases and workflows. Among e-commerce help desks, Re:amaze and Richpanel are the closest competitors, and Tidio is a cheaper option for small stores.
