Lokalise Messages automatically detects a language of an incoming conversation. It uses an AI to detect a language based on its content instead of making assumptions based on the customer's geolocation or country specified in the metadata.

You can add an Intercom Rule to automatically route conversations to a team that speaks a particular language:

Go to Settings > Inbox settings > Inbox rules and create a new rule.

A custom attribute adds a language filter to Conversations, Team performance, Customer satisfaction, Effectiveness and other Intercom reports.

Go to Reports > Customer support > Conversations or any other conversation-focused report and add a Language (Lokalise) filter:

Neural networks that we are using to perform machine translation sometimes fail to understand the language of the message (for example, if it contains typos or content in several languages).

Agents can change the language of a conversation using the sidebar widget. See Change the conversation language via the sidebar widget section in the tutorial for agents.
