How are you monitoring what Fin tells your customers?

Hey everyone 👋

As Fin handles more customer conversations, I'm curious how teams are checking the actual responses being sent to customers.

Not just whether Fin resolved the conversation but whether the response itself could create a problem.

For example:

promising a refund or exception that isn't actually allowed

giving incorrect pricing or policy information

making a commitment the business can't honor

exposing sensitive customer information

giving inappropriate financial or medical advice

missing an important AI disclosure

The difficult cases aren't necessarily obvious. A response can look perfectly reasonable on its own but become risky when you look at the customer's situation and the company's policies.

How are you handling this today?

Manual sampling? QA? Fin's monitoring tools? Internal rules? Something else?

I'm working on this problem myself and would genuinely like to understand how other Intercom teams are approaching it.

Yes - ‘resolved’ just means the customer didn't escalate to a human, not that the answer was safe. Those are different things, and the risky cases (promising something policy doesn't allow, mishandling sensitive info) can hide inside conversations that look fine.

When looking for issues we recommnend:
- Don't sample randomly. Pull transcripts where Fin discussed refunds, exceptions, pricing, or anything where an expensive mistake could live
- Check repeat contact after a Fin resolution. See if the same customer is back in 3-7 days on the same or similar topic
- Manually write up specific things that you would not expect Fin to mention and search for those
- Check not just CSAT but things like reopen rates for Fin resolved vs human
 

There are automated tools like isara.ai (full disclaimer, thats who i work for) but you dont need a tool to do basic checking
