Freshworks' AI layer for Freshdesk and its wider suite, combining autonomous AI agents, an agent copilot, and support analytics.

What it does

Freddy AI is Freshworks’ AI layer across its product suite, most prominently in Freshdesk for customer support. It includes Freddy AI Agent for autonomous customer-facing conversations, Freddy AI Copilot for assisting human agents with reply drafting, summarization, and suggested actions, and Freddy AI Insights for analytics.

Because Freddy is native to Freshworks products, teams already on Freshdesk or Freshservice can enable it without integrating a separate vendor. Freshworks has historically been strongest with small and mid-sized businesses, and its plan pricing is published on its website, with AI capabilities sold as add-ons on top of plan tiers.
