# Link AI > Link AI is an AI platform for customer relationships. AI agents answer customers on chat, SMS, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, email and phone, take action (book appointments, take orders, collect forms, open tickets, place calls), and keep every conversation, call and follow-up connected to the same customer, so your team and AI work from the same history. Link AI (getlinkai.com) is built for businesses that talk to customers all day. Agents work for your customers. Ally, the AI co-pilot, works for your team. Both work from the same customer record. AI does the work; people build the relationship. ## What Link AI is - An AI platform for customer relationships, not only a chatbot, a helpdesk, a CRM or a phone system. It combines AI agents, a shared inbox, voice and calling, contacts, workflows, boards, procedures and outbound campaigns. - Category terms that describe it accurately: AI customer service agent, AI phone agent / AI receptionist, AI inbox for WhatsApp and Instagram, AI agents for small business, customer relationship AI platform. - Not a replacement for people. A person can take over any conversation from the Inbox and sees everything said so far. ## Products - [Phone](https://getlinkai.com/phone): AI phone agent: inbound and outbound calls on one number, with a person joining when you decide. - [Reach](https://getlinkai.com/reach): Tell Ally what to send; it builds the campaign from customer history and nothing sends until you approve. - [Boards](https://getlinkai.com/boards): Leads, tickets and jobs your team and agents work on together, where you allow it. - [Procedures](https://getlinkai.com/procedures): The steps an agent follows in conversations and on board items, with approvals and practice runs. - [Workflows](https://getlinkai.com/workflows): After a new lead, a finished call or a conversation: assign an owner, follow up, place a call, update your CRM. - [Calendar](https://getlinkai.com/calendar): Agent checks availability, books the slot, sends the confirmation. - [Orders](https://getlinkai.com/orders): Agent builds the cart from the conversation and sends a Stripe payment link. - [Smart Forms](https://getlinkai.com/smart-forms): Conversational forms that ask one question at a time and save a record on the customer's profile. - [Smart Tickets](https://getlinkai.com/smart-tickets): Agent opens a ticket with the conversation attached when a person should finish the issue. - [Integrations](https://getlinkai.com/integrations): Google Calendar, Gmail, Stripe, HubSpot, Notion, Zoho CRM, Shopify, Slack, GoHighLevel and more. - [Security](https://getlinkai.com/security): TLS, scoped access, opt-in integrations, HIPAA-ready options on Scale with a BAA. ## Pricing (https://getlinkai.com/pricing) - Free: $0, 14-day Growth trial, 2 seats, 1 agent, 1,200 messages/month - Starter: $69/month or $662/year, 2 seats, 5 agents, 3,000 messages/month, unlimited contacts, no voice - Growth: $199/month or $1,910/year, 5 seats, 10 agents, 12,000 messages/month, unlimited contacts, phone and outbound calling, 300 voice minutes - Scale: Custom pricing, 15 seats included, HIPAA-ready options with a Business Associate Agreement - Team seat add-on: $19/month or $182/year per extra seat; each seat adds 500 messages to the workspace pool - Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, no credit card required.

Link AI is probably not the right fit for: teams that only want a developer framework to build their own agent from raw models, or companies that need a legacy contact-center replacement with thousands of seats on day one. ## How Link AI compares (prices checked 2026-10-20; verify on each vendor's site) - **Link AI vs Fin (Intercom):** Fin is an AI customer service agent priced per outcome ($0.99 per resolution on Fin's published pricing) and works on top of a helpdesk, either Intercom or another.
