The short version
- Only Jivochat has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Jivochat the free plan keeps only 2 months of chat history and has no CRM; Level AI pricing combines a per-agent fee, a platform licence and usage-based components, so the number quoted per agent is not the number you pay and budgets set from a per-seat figure alone come in short.
- They diverge on capability: Jivochat covers Live chat, Level AI covers Automated QA scoring.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Jivochat
- The free plan keeps only 2 months of chat history and has no CRM
- The Chat API, chat routing and the mobile SDK are all Enterprise only, at $56 per agent per month billed annually
- The WhatsApp module is a $27 a month add on on every plan including Enterprise
- The Professional plan caps the account at 100 agents
- Pricing is per agent, so support cost scales with headcount rather than conversation volume
Level AI
- Pricing combines a per-agent fee, a platform licence and usage-based components, so the number quoted per agent is not the number you pay and budgets set from a per-seat figure alone come in short.
- Integration to each contact centre or CRM system is charged as a separate implementation fee, which means a team running voice on one platform and chat on another pays twice before a single interaction is scored.
- The unit economics do not work below roughly a hundred agents; smaller teams get quoted enterprise minimums that cost more than the QA analyst they were trying to avoid hiring.
- Automated scores are only as good as the scorecard behind them, and the calibration work to get semantic questions scoring consistently falls on your QA team over several weeks before anyone trusts the output.
- Transcription and semantic accuracy degrade on heavily accented speech, poor telephony audio and languages outside the main supported set, so multilingual operations often end up running manual QA in parallel for some queues anyway.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Jivochat: How much does JivoChat cost?
JivoChat is free for up to 5 agents. Paid plans start at $28 per agent per month (Basic), $42 per agent (Professional), and $56 per agent (Enterprise). All plans billed annually receive a 30% discount. A 14-day trial is available with no contract required.
SourceLevel AI: Does Level AI publish pricing?
No. Quotes are built per deployment from agent count, channel mix and product modules, and integration fees are added on top.
Jivochat: What are the limits for agents in JivoChat plans?
The Free tier includes 5 agents. Basic, Professional, and Enterprise plans cap at 100 agents per organization, except Enterprise which allows unlimited agents at the $56-per-agent-per-month rate.
SourceLevel AI: Can it replace our QA analysts?
It replaces the sampling and scoring work, not the judgement. Teams typically keep analysts for calibration, disputes and coaching design.
Level AI: Does it work without a cloud contact centre platform?
It needs recordings and metadata from somewhere. If your telephony does not expose those through an integration or API, this is not a fit.
Level AI: How long does implementation take?
Expect weeks, not days. Connecting systems is quick; getting scorecards calibrated to the point where team leaders act on the scores takes longer.
