How to Manage AI Add-ons in BoldDesk

An AI Add-on in BoldDesk is an optional feature that brings advanced AI-powered capabilities to your helpdesk. These features are not included in the base subscription plan by default and must be activated separately. By enabling AI add-ons, you can enhance your support operations with tools like:

• AI-generated replies
• Ticket summarization
• Smart suggestions

Understanding AI Add-on Usage

The number of AI requests is not fixed by your BoldDesk subscription plan. Instead, it depends on:

• Which AI Add-on you activate
• Your usage pattern
  • AI Copilot Agents: Unlimited usage for subscribed agent(s).
  • AI Agent Credits: Credits are deducted each time an AI feature generates a reply.

This flexible model allows you to scale AI usage based on your team size and support volume.
