The short version

  • Only Google Dialogflow has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Comm100 screen sharing, agent shift management and custom reporting are excluded from both published plans and require the unpriced Ultra tier; Google Dialogflow google's own Dialogflow pricing page (cloud.google.com/dialogflow/pricing) prices Conversational Agents (CX) text requests at $0.007 per request, audio input at $0.0065 per 15 seconds and audio output from $4 per 1 million characters, all in USD, with a one-time $600 free credit for the first 12 months; Dialogflow ES (Essentials) is billed per request separately from CX and the two are not interchangeable, so a chatbot built on ES cannot simply switch to CX pricing without migration.
  • They diverge on capability: Comm100 covers Live chat, Google Dialogflow covers NLU and NLG.

Comm100

  • Screen sharing, agent shift management and custom reporting are excluded from both published plans and require the unpriced Ultra tier
  • The Startup plan at $39 per agent per month excludes chat routing and audio video chat
  • Every AI product is a separate add on quoted by sales rather than included in a plan
  • Pricing is per agent, so cost scales with headcount rather than conversation volume

Google Dialogflow
