Pricing Model
FreemiumHazelchat is freemium and prices by answers, meaning replies backed by your sources. Private tests, handoffs and "I don't know" responses are not counted. The Free plan costs €0 per month with 50 visitor answers, one verified website, the current recommended model and saved enquiries, with no credit card required. At 50 answers the widget stops answering new questions until the next monthly period and shows your contact option, with no automatic overage charge.
Paid plans on the official site (per month): Starter at €39 with 750 answers and 1 website; Business at €149 with 3,000 answers and 3 websites; and Scale from €449 with 12,000 answers and 10 websites. Paid plans include a seven-day trial but require a payment method.
The Wix App Market lists its own USD prices for the Wix app: Starter at $32 per month on the yearly plan or $50 monthly, and Business at about $124 per month, and notes the chat only appears on Wix sites with a Premium plan. The Framer plugin has no separate charge, though Framer may require a paid Site plan for custom code. Confirm current prices on hazelchat.co.
FreemiumBotpress offers four main tiers. Pay-as-you-go is free with no base subscription, including one collaborator seat, a monthly AI credit, and usage billed as AI Spend beyond that credit; it's best for prototypes and small tests. Plus starts at $89/month and adds live-agent handoff, white-labeling, and WhatsApp deployment. Team starts at $495/month and adds real-time collaborative editing, role-based access control, and workspace management, with roughly $1,000 worth of add-ons bundled in. Enterprise is custom-priced for large organizations, adding white-glove onboarding, a dedicated support manager, formal uptime SLAs, and custom workspace, message, and storage limits. Pay-as-you-go add-ons are also available a la carte (for example, extra table rows, incoming messages, or bots). As of a May 2026 pricing update, workspaces created after May 14, 2026 get unlimited bots and bundled AI Spend included on every paid plan; existing workspaces keep prior pricing. Additional storage can be added to Plus and Team plans for $40/month.
