Company profile
researched Aug 2026Pluno sells an AI support agent designed for technical B2B support queues, positioning itself against AI tools that can only answer questions covered by a help center. The product runs as a layer on top of Zendesk rather than as a replacement support platform, and learns from a team's previously resolved tickets to capture troubleshooting steps, diagnostic questions and edge-case fixes. For an incoming ticket it searches knowledge sources, makes tool calls to connected systems, assembles evidence and produces a confidence score; above a confidence threshold it resolves the ticket automatically, and below it escalates to a human agent with the diagnostic context attached.
Beyond autonomous resolution, Pluno provides an agent-facing copilot that searches across past tickets, help center content, Slack, Jira and APIs from a single interface and drafts on-brand response suggestions and debugging steps. It also handles the support-to-engineering handoff by creating Jira issues that include ticket summaries, business impact and reproduction steps, with updates syncing back into Zendesk. The website describes the problems it targets with figures for complex tickets: an average 23% reopen rate and handle times two to three times longer than simple tickets.
Business model
Pluno sells software to business customers, offering a booked demo and a free trial as entry points, and a comparison test against a prospect's existing AI agent. The website does not disclose pricing or contract structure.
Traction
The website states Pluno resolves more than 500,000 complex tickets a month across customer teams. Cited customer outcomes include Innovorder auto-resolving 67% of complex tickets, Smartness resolving over 40% of tickets automatically with 5x faster first response times, Waste Vision saving five minutes per ticket via the copilot, and Kojo achieving 3x faster engineering response times.
Latest developments
The site carries a 'New' banner announcing Pluno for the browser, described as ten times faster than Claude.

Market position
Pluno positions itself against general-purpose AI support agents limited to help center content, and its website features a customer comparison stating Pluno outperformed Fin by Intercom, with one account describing prior 'forced resolutions' under Intercom Fin. Public sourcing available here is limited to the company's own website, so independent market position cannot be assessed.
The stated differentiators are resolution of complex, product-specific technical tickets rather than FAQs; learning from historical resolved tickets and connected tools instead of only published knowledge base articles; confidence-gated auto-resolution with context-rich escalation; deployment as a layer inside an existing Zendesk setup with no migration; and European data processing with SOC-2 Type 2 and GDPR compliance.
Technology
Pluno learns from a customer's resolved support tickets to model recurring issues and diagnostic flows, combining knowledge search over past tickets and help center articles with tool calls into connected systems such as authentication log and identity-provider configuration APIs. It assembles evidence, assigns a confidence level to a proposed resolution, and either auto-resolves or escalates with the diagnostic trail. Integrations include Zendesk, Jira, Slack, and internal APIs. All data is processed in Europe and large language models are hosted through Microsoft Azure; the company states model providers do not access customer data and no models are trained on it, and that it is SOC-2 Type 2 certified and GDPR compliant.
Go-to-market
Direct sales through demo bookings and a self-serve free trial, supported by customer case studies, video success stories and testimonials from support managers and team leads at named accounts, plus an explicit head-to-head comparison offer against a prospect's incumbent AI agent.
B2B companies with technical products whose support tickets require real troubleshooting rather than FAQ answers, particularly teams handling diagnostic questions, multi-step resolutions and issues spanning support and engineering. Named customers include Smartness (lodging technology), Kojo, Innovorder and Waste Vision.
Geography
Data processing is located in Europe with LLMs hosted on Microsoft Azure. Named customers include Smartness, which the site describes as supporting thousands of lodging operators worldwide.
