The short version
- Only Amazon Connect has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Amazon Connect telephony is charged separately from the platform, so the $0.038 per minute voice rate is not the whole cost of a call; Krea usage is metered in compute units that vary by operation; the free tier grants only 100 units per day, and the $9 per month Basic tier steps up to 5,000 units, as of August 2026.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Amazon Connect
- Telephony is charged separately from the platform, so the $0.038 per minute voice rate is not the whole cost of a call
- Every channel is metered individually: $0.010 per chat message, $0.080 per email and $0.014 per SMS
- Rates vary by region and by third-party provider, so a published figure is indicative rather than final
- Cost tracks contact volume, which makes forecasting hard for a queue with seasonal peaks
Krea
- Usage is metered in compute units that vary by operation; the free tier grants only 100 units per day, and the $9 per month Basic tier steps up to 5,000 units, as of August 2026.
