The short version

  • Only Pi has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 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; Zenoti zenoti publishes no prices: the pricing page names plans by business type but gives no rate, no per location fee and no minimum, and routes every enquiry to a quote or demo
  • They diverge on capability: Pi covers Conversational AI, Zenoti covers Appointment booking.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

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
  • Requires iOS 16 or later, per the App Store listing

Zenoti

  • Zenoti publishes no prices: the pricing page names plans by business type but gives no rate, no per location fee and no minimum, and routes every enquiry to a quote or demo
  • Multi location pricing is described as customised to the customer's footprint, so two buyers of the same size are not guaranteed the same rate
  • Communication costs such as messaging are billed on consumption on top of the plan
  • Functionality is extended through paid add ons rather than being included in a single plan
