Before you pay for Botpress
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at $9000/year. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Botpress runs on open-source (self-hosted), cloud-managed (botpress cloud), and is published by Botpress Inc. of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The full record is on the Botpress review, and the rest of the category is under best live chat tools.
