PatchDesk
PatchDesk combines a shared customer-support inbox with an issue tracker for teams. Teammates can assign and prioritize customer tickets, add internal notes, set service-level targets, and use macros for reusable replies. When a ticket reveals a bug or needs engineering follow-up, it can be turned into an issue in the same product; issues include statuses, priorities, comments, and followers. A branded customer portal lets people submit requests without creating an account, and updates are sent by email. The hosted service includes role-based access, multi-factor authentication, CSV import and export, unlimited tickets and bugs, and a 14-day full-access trial with no credit card. Pricing is $7 per active user per month. PatchDesk also supports connecting compatible AI clients through a remote MCP server and personal tokens, allowing permitted actions on issues and tickets.

Reponse
Reponse is the customer experience suite for Shopify stores, installed inside the Shopify admin. Unlimited seats on every plan: a shared inbox with unlimited human live chat, tickets with assignment, SLAs and canned replies, order tracking and returns handled in the chat, each customer's tickets and points on the Shopify customer page, loyalty points and referrals, and a help center. The AI agents work from the first day: they read the store automatically (policies, shipping, catalogue), answer shoppers and guide them to checkout, find orders and start returns, triage tickets and draft replies for the team. Three plans with every AI agent: $39 a month for 1,000 AI actions, $99 for 3,000 and $249 for 10,000, then $0.05 per extra action, billed through Shopify within the monthly budget the merchant sets. Each plan starts with a free 14-day trial. Reponse works in English and French and installs from the Shopify App Store.

Ravine Desk
Ravine Desk is help desk software built for freelancers, consultants, and small development teams who support multiple clients. Each workspace gets its own branded subdomain and client portal, where clients sign in with a magic link instead of a password. Tickets come in through the portal or by email, and client email replies thread into the matching ticket automatically. Billable hours are logged on every comment and roll up into per-client reports. An AI assistant is included on every plan, with a daily briefing and ticket analysis; Team and Pro plans add automatic triage and client-facing status summaries. Pricing is flat and based on technician count, with no per-ticket or per-client fees. Plans start at $12/month, and every plan comes with a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. An early-access Agent Seats add-on lets AI agents such as Claude Code work tickets through a REST API under their own technician identity.
