How they charge

Four ways AI chat tools put a price on support

Headline prices are hard to compare because the unit changes from tool to tool. These are the four units, and who uses each one.

  • Model one

    Per seat or per agent

    Each teammate who logs in is a line on the bill, so the cost follows the size of your team rather than your traffic.

    Check: whether the AI agent is inside that price, or billed on top of it.

  • Model two

    Per AI resolution or session

    The AI agent is billed for each conversation it handles or closes, so the cost follows how much work the AI does.

    Check: what counts as a resolution, and whether you can cap the month.

  • Model three

    Per conversation or credit

    A monthly bundle of conversations or credits, with top-ups when it runs out, so the cost follows your volume.

    Check: what uses up one unit, and what a top-up costs.

    TidioPlain

  • Model four

    Per plan

    One price per plan for the whole workspace, with seats and a monthly allowance included, so the bill is the same every month.

    Check: the seats and messages each plan includes. EzyConn includes the AI agent on every plan, the free one too.

How we compare

Three rules every comparison here follows

Vendor comparisons are usually advertisements. These are written so you can check them.

  • The same questions for both

    Every table asks EzyConn and the other product the same questions, row by row.

  • EzyConn’s column is read, not written

    Plans, channels and connections come from the product’s own data, so they cannot be rounded up.

  • Their facts carry a date

    Each competitor fact comes from their own pages, with the date it was read and a link to check it.

FAQ

Questions people ask before they compare

Pricing units, the AI agent and how these pages stay accurate.

How do AI chat and support tools charge?

In four ways: per seat or agent (Intercom, Zendesk, Freshdesk, Help Scout, Front, Plain), per AI resolution or session (Intercom, Zendesk, Help Scout, Front, Freshdesk), per conversation or credit (Tidio, Plain), or per plan for the whole workspace (EzyConn, Crisp, Social Intents). Many pair a seat price with a metered AI, so check both.

Which tools include the AI agent in the plan?

EzyConn includes its AI agent on every plan, the free one too. Several of the others charge for AI separately: per outcome at Intercom, per resolution beyond an allowance at Zendesk, per resolution at Help Scout, per conversation at Front, per session at Freshdesk, and as the Lyro add-on at Tidio. Each comparison gives the figures and the date they were read.

How are these comparisons kept accurate?

EzyConn’s column is read from the product’s own plan and channel data, so it cannot be rounded up. Every competitor fact comes from that company’s own pages, with the date it was read and a link, so you can check it yourself. If a price has moved since, their page is right.
