An AI agent you pay for only when it actually helps

Milo, the no-code AI agent, reads your help articles, your website, and the notes you give it, and answers customer emails and live chats from that. When it doesn't know, or the customer wants a person, it says so and moves the conversation to your team. You pay per resolved conversation, with a free monthly allowance.

Proven sources, instead of prompt engineering

Test Milo, the AI agent, against the available sources before a single customer sees it. No complex flows and no developer needed, and nothing goes live until you activate it.

Pick where it answers

Choose the channels the AI agent may reply in: live chat, email, or both. Switch on live chat first if you'd rather watch it handle website visitors before it answers your support inbox. Turning it on for email means it works for every shared inbox you've connected.

Test it on your own questions

Before anyone outside your team meets Milo, ask it the questions your customers ask most: delivery times, what's in which plan, the return policy. If an answer is missing or wrong, the fix is in your sources - add the right document or re-sync the page, then ask again.

Activate AI agent

With one click, the AI agent starts taking every new, unassigned conversation in the channels you pick. Each reply is labeled as Milo's and sits in the thread, so you can read along from day one, and the sidebar shows how many conversations it's holding right now. If something looks off, assign the conversation to yourself, and Milo steps aside.

Pay per resolved conversation instead of seat or message sent

The no-code AI agent is a separate add-on to Inbox, billed monthly by resolutions. A resolution is a conversation Milo AI closed because the customer said it helped, or didn't come back. One per conversation per billing month, and never for a conversation a teammate took over or you marked as spam. Every workspace gets a free monthly allowance, and when it's used up, new conversations wait for your team, and the AI agent resumes next month or on a higher tier.

Four rules that make Milo AI safe for your business

  • It's grounded

    Answers come only from the files, pages, and notes you added, never from the open internet or whatever the model happens to remember. If the answer isn't in your sources, the AI agent says it doesn't know and offers a person instead of guessing confidently.

  • It's transparent

    Every reply is labeled as Milo's and sits in the thread like any teammate's, so you can read the whole exchange afterward and see exactly what was said. The customer knows too: in live chat, Milo's first message is signed as Milo AI, and a person can take over.

  • It's human first

    "Talk to a person" sits under every reply in live chat. Milo AI also offers a person when it has no answer or the conversation goes in circles. The moment a teammate takes over, the AI agent stops replying in that conversation for good, even if the customer writes again first.

  • It's yours to control

    Switch Milo AI off for live chat, for email, or entirely, at any time. Switch both channels off to pause it. Two permission levels decide who can see its settings and who can change its sources and activation, so a new hire can read along without being able to retrain it.

What Milo AI doesn't do

  • It doesn't answer from the open internet or make things up. If it's not in your sources, Milo AI says it doesn't know and hands over.

  • It doesn't pretend to be a person. Replies are labeled as Milo's.

  • It doesn't keep a customer from reaching you. “Can I talk to someone?” is a handover, every time.

  • It doesn't act in other systems - no refunds, no account changes. It answers questions.

  • It doesn't learn from your customers' messages to answer other companies' customers.

Our own support team was Milo’s first customer

Before Milo AI answered a customer of yours, it answered ours - in Elastic Email's 24/7 support, where it works today. So far, we're saving on average 260 hours on customer support monthly, so our team can focus on more advanced inquiries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Milo is a no-code AI agent built into Elastic Email Inbox, a help desk, live chat, and team chat for small teams. Milo answers customer emails and live chats from the files, web pages, and notes a business adds, replies in the customer's language, and hands any conversation it can't resolve to a person with the full thread.

Milo is built for teams of two to ten people with no support engineer. You can configure it by adding documents, a website, or your notes for it to learn from. Pricing is per resolved conversation, with a free monthly allowance, instead of per seat, and the agent runs inside the same app as the help desk, live chat, and team chat, so you don't need a second tool to buy or integrate.

Milo answers only from the sources a business adds - never from the open internet or the model's general knowledge. If the answer isn't in those sources, Milo says it doesn't know and offers to connect the customer with a person, rather than guessing.

Yes. Milo's messages are always signed as Milo AI, and every reply includes an option for a person to take over.

There is nothing to build: no flows, intents, or prompts, and no separate help desk to connect. Milo lives inside Elastic Email Inbox next to the help desk, live chat, team chat, and email on your own domain, and is paid per resolved conversation. Milo answers questions but doesn't take actions like refunds or order changes.

Yes. Milo AI offers a free plan with a free monthly allowance of Milo resolutions. No card is required.
