The short version

  • Only Pi has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Chatbase plans start around $20 per month but message credits are capped per tier, with additional usage billed separately once the allowance is exceeded; Pi inflection AI's own homepage (2024 archive) pivoted its headline positioning to enterprise AI licensing rather than the consumer Pi assistant, with no consumer pricing or plans published on the corporate site
