Alternative
The best Gorgias alternative
A helpdesk built specifically for e-commerce, deeply wired into Shopify, BigCommerce and Magento order data. The bill is metered by tickets, so a busy month or a viral product pushes you into overages or a forced upgrade right when support is hardest.

Verdict
Leaving Gorgias: the short answer.

Why teams leave Gorgias for muro
A bill that ignores your ticket count
muro is a flat monthly price whether you answer ten conversations or ten thousand, no per-ticket meter, no overage surprise.
AI without per-resolution fees
AI credits come with the plan, and on your own Anthropic key the AI answers from your docs with no limit and no markup. No fee per automated resolution.
Every project in one inbox
Run several stores or sites from one workspace at one price, rather than a plan per store.

Questions
Gorgias and muro, answered.
Something else? Write to contact@muro.chat, a person answers.
Is muro a good Gorgias alternative?
For live chat plus AI support at a flat price, yes, especially if the per-ticket pricing is what pushed you to look. muro is not a full e-commerce helpdesk with native order-management macros.
Does muro charge per ticket like Gorgias?
No. muro is one flat monthly price with unlimited conversations and unlimited agents, so a busy month does not change the plan price.
Can muro answer store questions automatically?
Yes, point its AI at your policy and FAQ pages and it answers shipping, returns and sizing questions from your own words, then hands off order-specific cases to you.
