The Cuego inbox: all channels in one workbench, with SLA per conversation

Trengo combines a shared inbox with AI and supports channels including WhatsApp and social. Start your comparison with your channels: what do you use today and what needs to keep working when you switch? Then compare pricing and the integrations your workflow needs.

Cuego brings email, live chat, voice and customer data together. Its AI consults your knowledge and connected systems and prepares a reply or resolves a question within your rules. WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Instagram DM are on the roadmap and are not available yet. If you need those channels now, keep them in your current system.

What to compare before switching

With that context in place, this is what the next step looks like.

What it delivers

What bringing context and action together means in practice.

Bundling channels is the first half. Cuego does the second: pulling up the order, writing the reply and either preparing or sending it within your rules.
