Enterprise is custom-priced ("Let's Talk") and adds higher limits, custom roles and permissions, SSO, white-labeling, audit logs, priority support, a dedicated CSM, SLAs, and HIPAA eligibility. Add-ons include auto-recharge credits ($40 per 1,000 credits), extra agents ($300/agent/year), and removal of "Powered by Chatbase" branding ($1,188/year).
FreemiumVoiceflow offers a Free (Starter/Sandbox) plan for prototyping and evaluation with a one-time credit grant (roughly 100 credits/month) and access to limited LLM models, ideal for testing before committing to a paid plan. The Pro plan starts around $60/editor/month (about $50/month effective on annual billing) and adds access to all major LLM models with higher usage limits for individual builders or small teams. The Business (Team) plan starts around $150/editor/month and includes roughly 30,000 credits, 5 workspaces, up to 10,000 knowledge sources, LLM fallback models, unlimited agents, priority support, and around 15 concurrent voice calls, aimed at growing teams. Enterprise pricing is custom (commonly cited in the $1,000-$2,000+/month range or higher depending on volume) and includes unlimited credits and agents, SSO, private cloud hosting, dedicated account management, migration support, and custom SLAs. Additional editor seats, phone numbers, and credit overages (for LLM usage, voice minutes, and messages) are billed on top of the base plan. Annual billing offers roughly a 10% discount. A separate Agency & Partner track offers a free trial with no credit card required and usage-based billing for teams building agents for clients.

Cons

  • Pricing is largely demo-gated and not fully transparent, especially for Business and Enterprise tiers
