Desks answer but don't fix.Coding agents fix but never talk.

Most teams keep support conversations in one tool and the code in another, joined by a person copying between them. The ticket says the calendar is wrong; the code knows exactly which line did it.

Support desk

Talks to the customer

Freshdesk, and help desks like it. Great at running the queue, then the bug leaves the ticket.

  • Answers and hands over
  • Reads your code
  • Writes the fix

Tore

One thread, both sides

The conversation, the investigation and the reply live together, so nothing is retyped.

  • Answers and hands over
  • Reads your code
  • Writes the fix

Coding agent

Works in your code

AI engineers that start from an issue. Strong at the fix, but the customer never hears from them.

  • Answers and hands over
  • Reads your code
  • Writes the fix

The evidence comes with it

No more asking for a screenshot.

When a customer reports a bug from the chat widget, Tore attaches what your engineer needs: the replay, the console and the network calls, with secrets stripped before upload.

  • Pin an element, mark up a screenshot or record the screen
  • The last 30 seconds of the session, replayed
  • Repeat reports grouped into one ticket

Questions people askbefore switching.

Is Freshdesk better for a large support team?

For a team that wants a familiar queue, many messaging channels and CRM links, Freshdesk is a proven choice. Tore runs the shared queue and AI answers too. Where it differs is what happens when the ticket turns out to be a bug.

Freshdesk links to Jira. Is that not enough?

It moves the ticket to engineering, which helps. An engineer still has to reproduce the bug, find the cause and write the fix, and someone has to tell the customer. Tore does those steps, and by default waits for your engineer to approve the change.

Does Tore change our code without asking?

By default it waits for your engineer's approval. Your engineer can request changes in plain words, and Tore revises the fix and re-runs the tests. You set how much it does on its own, per repository, in AI controls.

Which AI models does Tore use?

The right model for each job: a fast model for quick answers, deep reasoning for root causes, a coding model for fixes. You can let Tore choose or set it per task. During early access, you can also bring your own AI keys.

How does the price compare?

Plans, what is included and how the AI is billed are on the pricing page.

Run the queue.Fix the bug too.

Tore answers your customers and takes the bugs behind their tickets all the way to a fix for your engineer to approve.
