Pricing

Chatbot pricing that scales with your bots, from $29/month

Four tiers: Starter, Growth, Agency and Enterprise. The price sets how many bots you run, how many subscribers they reach, and how many conversations they have each month. All 145 templates and the full flow builder (where you arrange your chatbot's questions) are on every plan. The free trial lasts 14 days with no credit card, and annual billing saves about 17%.

Compared, line by line

Chatbot plan feature comparison

Higher tiers include more bots, subscribers, messages and team members. The template library, builder, website widget (the chat window on your site) and core lead capture (collecting visitor details) are the same on Starter and Enterprise.

What the tier actually buys

What you get at each chatbot pricing tier

The tier you choose mostly sets how busy your bots can be, rather than which features you can use. Three numbers change with the tier, and the core product is the same from the first day.

/01 · BOTS

How many flows you run at once.

A single owner usually needs one bot, such as a buyer qualifier, a class booker or an estimate scheduler. An agency with five clients needs five separate bots. Each bot has its own flow, widget and lead inbox.

  • Starter · 1 bot
  • Growth · 5 bots
  • Agency · 20 bots
  • Enterprise · unlimited

/02 · SUBSCRIBERS

The size of your contact list.

Every person who completes a conversation becomes a subscriber, which is a lead record your bots have collected. The limit applies to your active list. You can archive old contacts to free space, and nothing is deleted automatically.

  • Starter · 1,000 subscribers
  • Growth · 10,000 subscribers
  • Agency · 50,000 subscribers
  • Enterprise · unlimited

/03 · MESSAGES

Monthly conversation volume.

One message is one message sent by the bot or one reply from a visitor. A typical qualifier uses 8 to 12 messages for each completed lead. Most Starter accounts use about a third of their limit, and Growth is sized for busier sites that need more.

  • Starter · 5,000 messages / mo, then $0.006 each
  • Growth · 25,000 messages / mo, then $0.004 each
  • Agency · 100,000 messages / mo, then $0.002 each
  • Enterprise · unlimited

Going over does not stop your bots and does not end a conversation part way through. Extra messages are billed at the end of the month at your tier's rate, and moving up a tier lowers that rate as well as raising the allowance.

What stays the same on every plan

  • All 145 templates across 15 categories
  • Drag-and-drop flow builder
  • Conditional branching and saved answers
  • Test-mode preview
  • Website widget (one line of JavaScript)
  • Email lead notifications
  • Email integration (SMTP)
  • 14-day free trial, no card

Bright Loop, a fictional example agency, runs five client bots on Agency.

In this example, Casey Patel's discovery-call qualifier booked 94 calls in a month, an illustrative figure rather than a real result. It uses the same flow builder and templates a solo agent uses, with a workspace for each client and room for 20 bots, which is what the Agency plan is designed for.

Questions

Chatbot pricing FAQ

The questions we get asked most often, answered honestly.

What counts as a "subscriber"?

A subscriber is anyone who completes a conversation with one of your bots and is saved as a contact, with a name, phone number, email, or whatever details the flow asked for. People who start a conversation but leave before finishing do not count. You can archive old subscribers at any time to free up room without losing the conversation transcript.

What happens if I exceed monthly messages?

Your bots keep running, and we never stop a conversation partway through. You will see a warning in the dashboard at about 80% of your allowance and again at 100%. Any extra messages are billed at the end of the billing cycle at your tier's per-message rate. If you regularly go over, moving up a tier is usually the better choice, and the upgrade is prorated the same day.

Can I switch tiers mid-billing-cycle?

Upgrades take effect immediately, and the charge is prorated for the rest of your billing cycle. Downgrades take effect at the next billing date, so you keep the limits you have paid for. Switching from annual to monthly billing, or the reverse, works the same way: the current cycle finishes at your current rate.

How do I install the chat widget on my site?

Copy the one-line JavaScript snippet from your dashboard and paste it before the closing body tag of your site. It works on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, or hand-built HTML. The widget is live as soon as the page reloads, and it loads after the rest of the page so it does not slow it down. You choose which pages it appears on, as well as its colors, position and mobile sizing.

Is the 14-day trial really no credit card?

Yes. You sign up with an email address, build bots and collect real leads. When the trial ends, your chatbot stops answering visitors on your site until you choose a plan. Your dashboard, flows and leads stay in your account, and the bot starts answering again as soon as you subscribe.

Do agency sub-accounts get their own login?

Yes. On the Agency tier, each client has a separate workspace with its own login, dashboard and lead inbox, and our team turns on the workspaces when your account is set up. The agency owner has a main view that lists every workspace. Every widget shows a small "Powered by Alma" line. Contact us about removing Alma branding.

What integrations are included on each tier?

Email (SMTP) is on every tier. Zapier (a service that passes your leads to other apps), sending leads to CampaignCNX+ for texting, and CoreCNX contact and timeline entries are included starting on Growth. The REST API and general outbound webhooks are included starting on Agency. That is the complete list. We keep it short on purpose and do not claim integrations we lack.

Can I bring my own template?

There are two ways to start. Most accounts begin with one of the 145 industry templates and edit the questions, branches and actions to match their business. You can also open a blank flow and build it one step at a time. Both methods produce the same kind of bot. There is no "premium template" tier, because the whole library is on every plan.

Try the trial before you decide.

The trial lasts 14 days, needs no credit card, and gives full access to every template. Using the product for two weeks is the quickest way to decide which tier you want.
