AI Chat Bot Free: Plans for Business Support
AI chat bot free options range from consumer chat apps to business website support plans; momo Free costs EUR 0, while paid plans range up to EUR 399 per month. A free consumer AI chat app answers the person using it; a website support bot needs your business knowledge and a way to hand unanswered questions to your team, with flat fees and included AI conversations.
Compare free chat and support-desk costs
Consumer chat allowances are not the same as website support capacity. Business chatbot prices below retain their listed currency and billing basis.
Rival prices and allowances use different currencies and billing definitions. Do not compare a message, request, AI action and AI conversation as if they were the same unit.
Plans, limits and inclusions
Free: EUR 0
The Free plan is for trying a business support widget with real visitors. It is a free chatbot creator option for business support, rather than a general-purpose AI chat app. It includes 30 AI conversations as a one-time allowance, rather than a fresh monthly quota. One agent and one team member can use the plan. It also includes the website widget, helpdesk inbox, basic analytics and 2 MB of knowledge across up to 10 sources. The widget carries a momo badge. This is a capped starting point, not an ongoing monthly allowance.
Starter: EUR 29 per month or EUR 319 per year
Starter includes 500 AI conversations per month, one agent and two team members. It adds the website widget and email channel, helpdesk inbox, Help Center, basic analytics and 20 MB of knowledge across up to 50 sources. The widget has no momo badge. Yearly billing is 11 times the monthly price. The included conversation limit is the plan allowance; there is no per-resolution fee or credit pack.
Growth: EUR 129 per month or EUR 1,419 per year
Growth raises the monthly allowance to 2,000 AI conversations and includes three agents and five team members. It adds a Slack channel, API, Zapier and webhooks, advanced analytics, and 100 MB of knowledge across up to 200 sources. The helpdesk inbox is included on every plan, so there is no separate inbox charge listed in these plan prices.
Scale: EUR 399 per month or EUR 4,389 per year
Scale includes 6,000 AI conversations per month, 10 agents and 10 team members. It includes API, Zapier and webhooks, advanced analytics, and 500 MB of knowledge across up to 1,000 sources. Annual prices for the paid plans follow the same 11-times-monthly rule. An AI conversation can contain up to 25 AI replies on paid plans and up to 10 on Free. The AI model is chosen through OpenRouter; a business using the hosted service should consider the listed plan price and allowance when budgeting. No per-resolution fee or credit packs are part of the pricing model.
30
Free means a one-time allowance here
The Free plan includes 30 AI conversations once, not 30 every month. If you need a recurring allowance for incoming support, compare paid monthly quotas rather than treating a lifetime free allowance or a consumer chat app as ongoing business capacity.
Know whether the free limit resets before you rely on it.
Work out the cost
Start with the unit being billed
A headline price only tells part of the story. For a free AI bot generator or chatbot maker, check whether the offer is for personal chat or a business website support workflow. Check what counts as usage: a message, request, conversation, AI action or resolution can produce a different bill. Tidio defines a billable conversation broadly across live chat, ticket, email and social conversations; Botpress counts an exchange with at least two end-user messages in the billing month. These definitions are not interchangeable with momo’s AI conversation allowance. On paid momo plans, one AI conversation can contain up to 25 AI replies; on Free, up to 10.
Also look for charges outside the advertised plan fee: extra usage, seats, add-ons, model use and a separate human-support inbox. Botsonic lists add-ons for messages, integrations, team members and bots. Botpress Pay-as-you-go starts at $0 per month but charges for AI usage. Tidio lists a separate Lyro AI Agent option as well as paid quotas. Those costs should be checked against the workflow you actually need; a low entry price alone does not settle the monthly total.
Worked totals for the included plans
For one person needing a recurring monthly allowance, Starter costs EUR 29 per month or EUR 319 for a year billed annually. Its two team-member places include room for a solo operator, although it includes one agent. The plan’s annual charge is EUR 319, equivalent to 11 monthly plan fees.
For a five-person team, Growth is the smallest plan listed with five team members: EUR 129 monthly or EUR 1,419 yearly. It includes three agents, so team-member capacity and agent capacity are different limits to check against how the team works.
For a ten-person team, Scale includes 10 team members and 10 agents. Its plan fee is EUR 399 monthly or EUR 4,389 yearly. These totals are plan fees, not an estimate of third-party expenses or any usage beyond included allowances. The price is easier to assess when the quota, team capacity and shared inbox match the actual workload; for a small test, the one-time Free allowance avoids a recurring plan fee.

Free AI chatbot pricing questions
The key distinction is whether a free tool is for personal chat or for handling customer support on your business website.
Is a free AI chat app the same as a free website support chatbot or AI chat bot maker?
No. A consumer chat app is for the person chatting with it; a website support desk needs business knowledge and a route for unanswered questions to reach staff. The Free plan includes a website widget and helpdesk inbox, alongside its one-time AI conversation allowance.
Does Tidio have a free plan or only a free trial?
Tidio evidence lists the first 50 conversations as free for the lifetime of the account and describes a separate seven-day trial. It also says an account is downgraded to the Free plan when the trial ends unless the user upgrades. The lifetime conversation allowance and trial are different terms.
How does Tidio count a billable conversation?
Tidio counts a live chat, ticket, email or social conversation as a billable conversation. A thread answered or initiated by a human agent counts as one billable conversation regardless of how many messages it contains. That is a different measure from comparing message limits directly.
Can Botpress be used without a monthly subscription?
Botpress lists a Pay-as-you-go entry at $0 per month, with AI usage charged separately. Its billing is therefore not the same as a flat plan fee that includes a set number of AI conversations. Check usage charges alongside the entry price.
Which free chatbot plan includes a human-support inbox?
The Free plan includes a helpdesk inbox, one agent, one team member and a website widget. The allowance is 30 AI conversations one time, not monthly. Teammates can take over conversations live.
Do free AI chatbot plans charge extra for model usage or additional seats?
It depends on the product. Botpress describes its $0 monthly entry as usage-based, while other plans list add-ons or paid AI quotas; the available prices do not establish a comparable all-in cost for every team. Paid plans use flat EUR fees with included monthly conversation allowances, and each plan specifies its team-member and agent limits.
Try a website support desk for free
Start with a one-time allowance of 30 AI conversations, a website widget and an included human helpdesk inbox. For more on free business chatbot plans or AI live chat costs, compare the pricing models and limits.
