Intercom Automation, Approvals & Workflow Integration
Run Intercom on autopilot. Keep the veto.
133 actions
A reply fires, a contact gets blocked, a ticket type changes, and you find out after the fact. Rills proposes every Intercom action first; you approve before anything goes out.
Interactive. No signup. 14 days free · approvals always free.
Most automation fires first, asks later. Rills shows you the change before it ships.
Every consequential support action from Intercom arrives on your phone first. Approve in seconds. Decline without explaining yourself. Workflows wait, paused at zero cost, until you decide.

Free to wait. Free to think.
Approvals and logic don't cost a credit. Pause a workflow for three hours or three weeks. The price is the same: zero. You only pay when something real happens: an AI call, an outbound action.
Approve from your phone in five seconds.
Swipe right when you're sure. Decline when you're not. Between meetings, mid-coffee, on the train. No dashboard to babysit, no inbox triage, no 3am stomach-drop wondering what shipped while you slept.
Routine cases graduate themselves.
Every approval feeds a confidence score for that exact workflow shape. The obvious cases (the ones you've green-lit fifty times) start running on their own. The judgment calls still come to you.
About Intercom automation
Support queues move fast, and the wrong reply to the wrong ticket, or a contact blocked by mistake, lands in your inbox as a complaint before you even knew it happened.
When Intercom runs unsupervised
Intercom automation without a checkpoint means actions go out the moment a condition is met, not the moment you'd have chosen.
- Reply to ticket fires a canned response to an open billing dispute before anyone reads the full thread.
- Block contact runs on a flag that turns out to be a high-value customer with a one-off complaint.
- Delete a company removes a record tied to an active account because a cleanup rule matched a stale field.
- Update a ticket type reclassifies in-flight support tickets mid-conversation, breaking the agent's context.
- Create conversation opens a new thread for a contact who already has three unresolved ones waiting.
What Rills does inside Intercom
Rills sits between the condition and the action: it surfaces the proposed reply, block, or ticket update, lets you review the contact and context, and waits for your call before anything posts. Operations like reply to ticket, block contact, and search tickets feed the proposal card so you see exactly what would change.
The reply queues up. You read the thread, approve from your phone, and it sends only when you say so.
Why Intercom has no triggers and how Rills fills the gap
Intercom does not emit native triggers into external workflows, so Rills uses scheduled polling and upstream signals to decide when to act.
- Search tickets runs on a schedule to surface overdue or unassigned threads that need a reply or reclassification before they breach SLA.
- Get a contact polls after an upstream event, such as a failed charge in your billing tool, to check whether a support conversation already exists before creating a duplicate.
- List all notes checks periodically for internal notes flagged for follow-up, queuing a reply to ticket proposal when a deadline is near.
- Scroll over all companies runs on a daily cadence to catch company records marked for deletion or segment updates, holding each change for your approval before it ships.
