Comparing Zendesk AI Agents

A feature by feature comparison of Gnatta AI Agents vs Zendesk for AI-powered customer service.

Gnatta is trusted by brands across the globe - here's a few.

Multi-Agent Architecture

Zendesk supports one AI Agent per channel— forcing a single ‘super’ agent to handle every query, regardless of complexity or context. Gnatta allows multiple AI Agents to work as a team, sharing interactions, handing off between processes, and operating within clearly defined roles.

Custom Escalations

Zendesk uses a simple, reactive model to determine if a customer needs a human. Gnatta enables full custom escalation logic with data conditions and text prompts to define exactly when a human should step in – allowing you to automate complex processes securely.

Zero Support Fees

Zendesk is designed for quick self-serve setup, with additional fees for advanced config. At Gnatta, supported setup is included by default – we work with you from day one to design, build, and refine your AI solution with no added costs.

Interactions vs Resolutions

Gnatta’s usage-based model charges per Interaction, with a fixed cost once the work is done (volume discounts available). That makes costs easy to predict and manage using your existing contact volume metrics.

Zendesk charges per Resolution– but the definition of a ‘resolved’ query can vary between businesses, creating commercial uncertainty. After a Resolution rate of around 30%, Zendesk becomes more expensive than Gnatta.
