Gleap connecting customer messaging, feedback, automation, and AI agents in one workspace.
Trusted by 4,500+ companies
Customer.io is one-way. Gleap is the loop.
Customer.io sends. Users receive. When they reply or report a problem, Customer.io has no inbox, no AI, no agent. Gleap captures every reply, routes it with AI, and resolves 80% via Kai - same platform that sends your campaigns.
Gleap inbox capturing replies to campaigns that Customer.io can't handle.
Same event signal. Both directions.
Customer.io fires campaigns on events you instrument. Gleap fires campaigns on the same events - and also reads bug reports, support conversations, and feature requests to feed the AI agents. One signal, both directions.
Bidirectional event flow - campaigns out, support and bug signals in.
Email + push + in-app
Lifecycle, behavioural, triggered - full marketing automation included.
Token-based AI usage
Customer.io has no AI support agent. Kai resolves routine inbound with usage billed by actual tokens and selected model.
Bug reports → PRs
Kai Code captures replay + logs and starts plan mode. Customer.io has no equivalent.
Roadmap built-in
Kai PM ships a public roadmap and writes the release notes - Customer.io has none.

What you gain: Kai Code
Bugs in your campaign cohort become PRs.
A user triggered by your onboarding campaign hits a bug. In Customer.io, that's lost - there's no inbox. In Gleap, Kai Code captures session replay, logs, environment data, and starts a Kai Code run with the full context attached.
See Kai Code
A Kai Code bug report opening a Kai Code run from a campaign-triggered support conversation.
Kai PM clustering campaign-reply feature requests into a revenue-weighted roadmap.
What you gain: Kai PM
Feature requests from campaigns become roadmap items.
When users reply to your campaigns with feature requests, Customer.io has no place to put them. Kai PM captures, clusters, scores by revenue impact, and publishes to a public roadmap. The voters who replied get personalised release notes when you ship.
