Help Scout emphasizes human-centered customer support by creating tools that feel personal and authentic rather than robotic or transactional. The platform focuses on email-first support workflows that feel like genuine conversations, allowing teams to build relationships with customers while efficiently managing ticket volume. Help Scout's shared inbox eliminates the confusion of individual email accounts by centralizing all customer communications in one place where team members can collaborate, assign conversations, and maintain complete context. The platform's knowledge base integrates seamlessly with support workflows, enabling agents to quickly find and share helpful articles with customers. Help Scout excels for teams that prioritize personal touch in customer relationships, making it popular among B2B SaaS companies, agencies, and businesses where customer relationships are central to success.

At Lilac, we automate the person taking order at the drive thru with a voice AI. We're building this for Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs) dealing with an historical labor shortage and rising wages. Previous attempts at drive-thru voice ordering are costly to implement and have failed to deliver the accuracy and latency needed. It's now possible to build a voice interface that passes the threshold for a great customer experience. In the United States, there are 200,000 Drive-Thrus handling 6 Billion visits a year. At 3 minutes per order, that's 34,000 human years spent on taking orders annually. Per location, on average we can deliver around $100,000 of value in terms of labor savings, upsell revenue lift, and training costs.
