The Zendesk partner that actually runs Zendesk
Most partners hand you a configured instance and walk away. We design it, integrate it, and tune the AI — just like we do for our global enterprise clients every day.
Most Zendesk environments are nowhere near optimized.
The problem isn't the platform. In almost every environment we audit, it's the same picture: teams tap maybe 40% of what Zendesk can do, the AI is switched on but never tuned, and the routing hasn't been touched since go-live. The result is a system everyone works around instead of one that does the work.
- Workflows stay manual, even where Zendesk could automate them
- Integrations break, data sits siloed, and the team works around the gaps
- The AI is on but not tuned — so containment stalls and resolutions don't stick
- Customers repeat themselves across channels, and problems only get handled once someone complains
- Under outcome-based pricing, every miscategorized "resolution" is a cost, not a saving
ModSquad closes the configuration gap.
We map how your business actually operates, then configure and integrate Zendesk around those workflows — deploying and tuning the AI so the resolutions you pay for are genuine, and staffing the front lines for everything automation can't reach. You get a Zendesk that fits your business and does more of the work on its own, whether we're building from scratch or optimizing a mature instance.
The result:
- AI containment that starts around 20–30% and climbs toward 60–80% as we tune it
- Context that follows the customer across channels, so they stop repeating themselves
- One workspace with full customer history and the right internal expert in reach
- Proactive playbooks that resolve issues before the customer asks
- QA, workforce management, and analytics that compound improvement week over week

Orchestration by Zendesk's first AI-certified partner.
ModSquad is Zendesk's first AI-certified partner and one of its longest-tenured — with direct access to senior Zendesk resources most partners can't reach. And where a typical partner just configures Zendesk's AI features, we design and run the AI that resolves work inside Zendesk: the front-end experience customers meet, the agentic procedures that tell it how to handle each process, and the back-end connections that let it act. The result is automation that resolves whole requests, not just deflects them.
Front-end AI journey. How customers meet the AI across channels, and when it hands off to a person.
Agentic procedures. The step-by-step logic an AI agent follows to complete a real business process: issue a refund, reschedule an order, update an account.
Back-end orchestration. Secure API connections, including MCP and A2A, so the AI can read and write across your systems and actually finish the task.
Tuned for genuine resolution. We configure and continuously improve the AI so it resolves what it should, escalates what it shouldn't, and earns the resolutions you pay for.
ModSquad's operational edge
ModSquad runs Zendesk every day for its own global operation — so the model is built by the people who live in the queue, not just the ones who deploy it.
We staff what we build. ModSquad runs its own global operation on Zendesk and staffs the environments it builds, so the people designing your setup are the ones who live in the queue.
Committed to your outcomes, not just our bottom line. ModSquad bills for work, not seats. It's built to make your automation succeed and to handle the complex cases that remain, not to protect headcount.
The team stays. Mods choose the brands they support, so the people who learn your program stay on it — single-digit attrition against an industry that runs 30% or higher.
Security and compliance first. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS certified, across 90+ countries and 55+ languages, operating since 2007.
