Key features

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Free plan with genuine usage — build and test bots without paying anything upfront
  • Transparent AI billing at cost — no hidden markup on LLM usage
  • Wide multi-channel support including WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Slack, and Teams
  • Strong visual flow builder with real-time collaboration for teams
  • Human handoff built into Plus plan — escalate to live agents without extra tools

Cons

  • Free plan limited to 500 messages/month and 1 bot — very restrictive for real deployments
  • AI spend is billed separately on top of plan price — total cost can be unpredictable
  • Jump from Plus ($79) to Team ($445) is steep — no mid-tier option
  • Vector storage limits are low on entry plans — large knowledge bases require upgrades
  • More developer-oriented than Chatbase or Dante AI — less beginner-friendly
