Intercom is a customer service software company founded in Dublin in 2011 that began as a messenger embedded in web products and has rebuilt itself around artificial intelligence support agents. Its Fin agent resolves customer questions autonomously from a company's own help content and is priced per resolution rather than per seat, which is an unusual model for the category, and it sits alongside a help desk, knowledge base and proactive messaging tools for human teams. Headquartered in San Francisco with a large engineering presence in Dublin, the company is privately held and competes with Zendesk, Salesforce and the newer artificial intelligence support vendors.

Wiz is a cloud security company founded in 2020 by four Israeli engineers who had previously built and sold Adallom to Microsoft, and it grew faster to a hundred million dollars of recurring revenue than any software company before it. Its platform connects to a customer's cloud accounts without agents, builds a graph of every resource, identity and permission, and surfaces the small number of attack paths that actually combine into a serious risk rather than producing thousands of unranked alerts. Headquartered in New York with research in Tel Aviv, the company agreed in 2025 to be acquired by Google for around thirty-two billion dollars, the largest deal in Google's history.
