Most teams run DocMind for AI answers and keep Zendesk for agent workflows — or migrate off entirely for a faster, leaner support stack.
Point DocMind at your public Zendesk Guide help center URL, or export articles and upload them. DocMind indexes the content with citations preserved.
On Standard, connect Shopify for live order tracking, WISMO, returns, and product questions — answered in chat instead of the agent sidebar.
Configure handoff to Zendesk Support, email, or another helpdesk so agents pick up low-confidence conversations with full context attached.
