Your rules
You control every decision.
When a conversation escalates, to whom it's routed, and exactly what your agents receive. Every rule is yours.
When it escalates
Define triggers by topic, sentiment, channel, or time of day.
Who receives it
Route to the right team or agent based on skill, language, or workload.
What gets passed
Choose exactly which data travels: transcript, tags, customer records, order history.
Or automate fully
Add internal notes for agents, pre-fill responses, or resolve end to end with no human.
See it in action
A routing decision, in real time.
Watch how an incoming conversation is analysed, classified, and routed to the right outcome in milliseconds.
How it works
Three steps.Zero duplication.
Step 1
Resolve or escalate
Every query hits Certainly first. FAQs, order status, and returns are resolved instantly. Everything else routes to your Help Scout mailbox with full context.
Step 2
Beacon handover
Urgent conversations transfer into Help Scout's Beacon. Your agent picks up with the transcript, context, and AI summary already in place.
Step 3
Complete picture
AI-resolved and human-resolved conversations appear side by side in Help Scout. Happiness scores, response times, and resolution metrics in one place.
The integration
Your mailbox.Your AI. One workflow.
Shopify-native actions
Refunds, order modifications, subscription changes, and return labels. Certainly executes these autonomously via your store, not just answering questions about them.
Every conversation, accounted for
Resolved queries log as closed conversations. Escalated queries arrive with full context. Help Scout reporting stays complete.
Pre-populated context
Every escalation includes the full transcript, AI-generated summary, detected intent, language, sentiment tags, and any customer data pulled during the conversation.
Channel-agnostic
Web, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, email, SMS. Certainly handles the first touch on any channel. Help Scout receives the outcome.
The economics

when it costs cents?
