FAQ

Is NuovaBot's AI as good as Intercom's?▾

NuovaBot uses Anthropic's Claude — the same generation of frontier AI. The key difference is that NuovaBot's chatbot is trained specifically on your documents using RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), so it gives accurate, grounded answers from your content rather than general AI responses.

Can I switch from Intercom to NuovaBot?▾

Yes. Export your help center articles, upload them to NuovaBot, configure the chatbot, and embed it on your site. The setup takes an afternoon. Many customers switch because of the cost difference.

What does NuovaBot not do that Intercom does?▾

NuovaBot does not include a CRM, email campaign tools, or a full live chat inbox for agents. It is focused on AI-powered self-service chat. If you need those features, Intercom is the more complete platform — at a higher price.
