Pricing
FreemiumGorgias prices its Helpdesk by monthly ticket volume rather than number of agents, with five tiers at monthly billing: Starter at $10/month for 50 tickets (3 user seats), Basic at $60/month for 300 tickets, Pro at $360/month for 2,000 tickets, Advanced at $900/month for 5,000 tickets, and a custom Enterprise tier for 5,000+ tickets with added security and scale features. All plans above Starter include unlimited agent seats. Ticket overages cost $0.32 to $0.40 each depending on tier. The AI Agent is billed separately per resolved conversation at $0.90 (annual billing) to $1.00 (monthly billing), and a fully AI-resolved conversation counts as both a billable helpdesk ticket and an AI resolution. Voice and SMS are available as paid add-ons that scale with usage. Annual billing saves approximately 16% versus monthly.
FreemiumFree 14-day Enterprise trial (no credit card required). Paid plans: Growth at $19/agent/month (billed annually) — includes Freddy AI Agent with first 500 sessions, ticketing, shared inbox, customer portal, and knowledge base; Pro at $55/agent/month (billed annually) — adds multilingual helpdesk, custom dashboards, intelligent routing, multiple SLA policies, and Freddy AI Copilot add-on at $29/agent/month; Enterprise at $89/agent/month (billed annually) — adds Freddy AI Insights, skill-based routing, sandbox, audit logs, and IP whitelisting. Add-ons across all plans: Freddy AI Copilot $29/agent/month, additional AI Agent sessions $49/100 sessions, connector app tasks $80/5,000 tasks.

Gorgias Pros & Cons
Pros
- Deep native Shopify integration lets agents act on orders without leaving the ticket
- AI Agent pre-trained on 1B+ conversations and built on an OpenAI partnership

- Revenue attribution reporting shows exactly how much support conversations generate
- Trusted by 17,000+ ecommerce brands and roughly 40% of top Shopify merchants
Cons
- AI Agent resolutions are billed separately from helpdesk tickets, so a fully-automated conversation can incur two charges
- Seat limits on the entry Starter plan cap teams at 3 users
- Overage fees on exceeding monthly ticket allowances can add up quickly during volume spikes
- Deepest value is tied to Shopify and ecommerce platforms, less compelling outside that use case
