Acquisition will bring Fin's customer agent platform to companies of all sizes, accelerating time-to-value and expanding Salesforce's ability to deliver autonomous agents across the enterprise
Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the global leader in CRM, today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Fin , formerly Intercom, an industry-leading customer agent company. Under the terms of the agreement, Salesforce will acquire Fin for approximately $3.6 billion, subject to customary purchase price adjustments.
Fin's core offering, its AI Agent, resolves complex customer queries end-to-end, across every channel, including live chat, email, WhatsApp, SMS, phone, and Slack. The AI Agent is powered by the company's proprietary AI model, Apex, that is purpose-built for customer support and has demonstrated industry-leading resolution rates that outperform top commercially available frontier models.
"We're thrilled to welcome Fin to Salesforce as we enable every company to become an agentic enterprise," said Marc Benioff, Chair and CEO, Salesforce. "Fin brings proven agent technology, a deep commitment to customer success, and an incredible AI team that will complement Agentforce with powerful service agent capabilities. Together, we'll help companies of every size seize this opportunity — accelerating time to value with trusted agents that deliver measurable outcomes at scale."
"This is a major win for consumers of the world," said Eoghan McCabe, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Fin. "Our technology has defined this category and set the new standards for what great customer service looks like today. By joining forces with Salesforce, we can deploy it far and wide at a rate far faster than we could have ever achieved on our own."
Accelerating Agentic Time-to-Value Across Customer Segments
Building on the strength of Agentforce , which reached $1.2 billion in ARR in Q1 FY27, up 205% year-over-year, Fin's packaged offerings and proprietary models will complement Agentforce's deeply customizable platform with additional fast-to-value deployment options for service organizations.
Upon close, Salesforce and Fin will give customers more ways to deploy AI agents across their customer service operations, with fast time-to-value options especially well-suited for SMB and some commercial organizations that need to launch quickly, integrate with existing systems, and deliver measurable outcomes. Together, Salesforce and Fin will support customers at every stage of AI adoption, from rapidly deployable support agents to more tailored, enterprise-scale transformations built on trusted data, security, governance, and integration.
Fin's AI agent technology will help organizations improve autonomous resolution, reduce cost-to-serve, and accelerate AI adoption across their service organizations. The AI Agent has already demonstrated strong customer outcomes, including examples of AI agents resolving on average 76% of support volume end-to-end . The acquisition will also bring a long-tenured technical AI team and an established global customer base of more than 30,000 companies to Salesforce.
