Which one fits.

Some teams need what we do not have. Here is what, plainly.

When to look elsewhere

  • More channels. If you need email, WhatsApp or social messages in one inbox, look elsewhere: we are website chat only.
  • Native mobile apps. If your team needs to answer from a phone app, look elsewhere: we do not have native apps.
  • A marketplace of integrations. If your support depends on ready-made connections to other tools, look elsewhere: we do not have an integrations marketplace.

Where we fit better

  • The launcher is 7.8 KB brotli. The full chat loads when a visitor opens it, never before your page has loaded, and our build fails if either grows past its budget.
  • 500 AI replies a month come with Growth, and nothing is ever billed per resolution.
  • One flat price per workspace, with 10 seats included on Growth.
  • Voice messages on Growth and Business, and voice calls in the browser on Business. No phone number, no extra app.
