    Category breakdown

    Each category carries the weight set out in the methodology.

    Pricing Transparency20% weight

    Estimated74/100

    Vendor-reported. The vendor submitted a declaration covering published list pricing and discount structure. Reviewed against public terms but not independently verified against customer contracts.

    Renewal & Cancellation Experience30% weight

    Estimated52/100

    Intercom renews automatically with a notice window a buyer has to track themselves, and downgrades are limited mid-term.

    Price-Increase Predictability15% weight

    Estimated42/100

    Repricing at Intercom arrives at renewal without a published policy or advance signal, which is where most of the risk sits.

    Negotiation Flexibility15% weight

    Estimated50/100

    Discounting at Intercom is discretionary: available on multi-year or larger commitments, rarely on a flat renewal.

    AI Terms Maturity20% weight

    Estimated66/100

    Observed from customer contracts and renewal correspondence covering AI usage, data and model terms in the signed agreement. Based on paperwork supplied by three or more buyers, cross checked against the vendor's published terms.

    How to read this: the overall figure is a weighted average of the five categories, and one evidence basis applies to the whole card rather than category by category. Assessed from public sources: pricing pages, terms of service, and review-mining. The vendor has not participated. Any vendor can change this by submitting a declaration.

    Assessed from public information. This vendor has not submitted a declaration. We publish the invitation openly and update the card if that changes.

    Taking part does not raise a score. It changes what we can show our working against.

    This score measures commercial treatment at renewal, not product quality. A vendor can be excellent and still price hard.
