Custom Enterprise Pricing: Quote-based (contact sales)
Consider switching to Intercom: Intercom offers similar customer engagement solutions with a focus on live chat.
Ada is built exclusively for AI-first customer service at enterprise scale, deploying autonomous AI agents across messaging, voice, and email with Playbooks for complex multi-step workflows. Intercom Fin is an AI layer added to Intercom's broader customer messaging platform, which also includes human inbox, product tours, and outbound messaging. Ada's strength is in high-volume, omnichannel automation with enterprise compliance (SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR). Intercom offers published pricing from $39/seat/month, while Ada requires custom enterprise contracts through sales.
Ada supports web chat, email, voice, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, SMS, in-app messaging, and custom channels via SDKs. All channels are managed from a single Conversation Hub, so AI agents share the same knowledge base, Playbooks, and brand guidelines across every touchpoint. Cebu Pacific deploys Ada's AI agent Charlie across multiple channels, achieving under 1-minute wait times for high-priority support cases.
Playbooks are Ada's tool for automating complex standard operating procedures with agentic AI. Instead of matching a question to a static FAQ answer, Playbooks follow branching logic to complete multi-step processes like identity verification, order modifications, refund processing, and claims intake. They pull real-time data from connected systems (CRM, helpdesk, commerce platforms) to personalize each step. IPSY reported that Playbooks deliver accurate, personalized answers that require checking multiple data points in sequence.
Yes. Ada holds SOC 2 Type II certification, GDPR compliance, and HIPAA compliance. Customer data is never used to train LLM models (zero data retention with LLM providers). Additional security measures include role-based access control, multi-factor authentication, audit logging, annual third-party penetration tests, and annual LLM evaluations. Disaster recovery and business continuity plans are tested annually. Ada also holds AIUC-1 certification for AI use in customer interactions.

Enterprise customers include Pinterest, Square, Monday.com, IPSY, Barnes and Noble, Cebu Pacific, Grab, Malaysia Airlines, ZoomInfo, Life360, Betsson, Sky, and Blackhawk Network. The platform has powered over 5.5 billion customer interactions since 2016 across 350+ enterprise deployments.
Ada reports automated resolution rates of 70-84% across enterprise deployments. Tilt achieved an 84% automated resolution rate on chat with an 8-point increase in CSAT. Cebu Pacific saw a 34%+ higher automated resolution rate after replacing its declarative chatbot with Ada's generative AI agent. Monday.com reduced agent average handle time by 42% across 225,000+ active customers. IPSY estimated $2.7M in annual savings from 816,446 engaged conversations.
No. Ada maintains zero data retention with LLM providers, meaning customer data is never used to train language models. The platform's Trust and Safety framework includes transparent retention policies with full visibility into what data is stored, why, and for how long. Enterprise customers retain ownership of their data with granular role-based access controls, MFA, and audit logging to manage who can access sensitive information.
Ada integrates with CRM, helpdesk, and commerce platforms including Salesforce, Zendesk, Shopify, HubSpot, Intercom, Twilio, Genesys, Aircall, Help Scout, and Gladly. Social messaging channels (WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram) connect natively. The Developer Toolkit provides APIs, MCP (Model Context Protocol), and SDKs for custom integrations. Ada pulls customer data from connected systems to personalize AI agent responses based on account history, order status, and user preferences.
