Flatdesk vs Gorgias

Gorgias prices by ticket volume rather than seats, and third parties report its AI Agent at about $0.90 to $1.00 per automated interaction on top of the ticket fee. Flatdesk is $39 per agent on annual billing ($49 monthly) with 100 AI answers per agent included. Gorgias is built for ecommerce: it can refund and edit Shopify orders from the ticket and attributes revenue to support. Flatdesk shows a customer's Shopify orders beside the ticket, and its AI can cancel and refund an order that hasn't shipped, within limits you set.
