Freshdesk AI (Freddy) adds solid AI capabilities natively within the Freshdesk help desk—convenient for existing users. Dedicated AI support agents offer deeper deflection, more customization, and the ability to work across multiple help desks. If Freshdesk is your primary platform and Freddy meets your needs, stay native. If you need higher resolution rates or multi-platform support, a dedicated agent adds value.
