How to budget for an AI assistant

Regardless of your business size or number of requests, we give everyone 30 days free to set up, launch, and use their AI assistant to start handling live customers. There are no hidden costs and no locked features ― you get to use all our premium features for free from the moment you sign up.

Five days before your free trial ends, we use the number of requests you had during your 30 free days to calculate what you’ll pay in the next month for your AI assistant. After that, we calculate your pricing plan every three months, so you only ever pay for what you’re using, whether your price band goes up or down.

If you never go above 100 requests per month, AI Studio stays free forever.

Understanding requests

One request is essentially one complete request for help on one topic of conversation.

That means all of the conversation above is one request ― we don’t charge you per utterance (each chat bubble) as some companies do.

Moving to monthly payments

Once you go above 100 requests, pricing is as low as £99 per month. You only start paying more when the number of requests you get each month goes up.

  • £99 per month for up to 500 requests
  • £199 per month for up to 1,000 requests
  • £289 for 1,500 requests
  • £369 for 2,000 requests
  • £519 for 3,000 requests
  • £719 for 5,000 requests
  • £969 for 10,000 requests
  • £1,419 for 25,000+ requests

This way, you simply pay as you grow.

How to make your first payment

Five days before the end of your free trial, we’ll send you an email to confirm your price plan for the following month and, if you choose to continue, all you need to do is add payment details.

That’s it! You’re all set up and raring to go.
