Agentic Index
Gorgias vs KODIF (2026)
Gorgias and Kodif both serve ecommerce support teams at very different entry points: Gorgias is the established ecommerce helpdesk from 10 dollars a month, with AI capabilities layered on a platform thousands of Shopify merchants already run, while Kodif is a quoted AI automation platform with white glove onboarding, built to automate complex flows on top of whatever helpdesk you keep. Smaller merchants get a complete helpdesk with AI from Gorgias cheaply; larger brands with an existing helpdesk and heavy transactional volume evaluate Kodif as the automation layer.
