On yearly billing: Startup $19/mo and Small Business $49/mo; month to month the same two are $23 and $59. The yearly toggle is badged 2 MONTHS FREE (it read SAVE 15% in August); on these prices the yearly rate is about 17% lower ($19 against $23, $49 against $59). Enterprise is quote-only. Startup covers 250 minutes (1,000 in our 13 August read), 1 number, 1 user, 1 extension and 120 texts, with extra minutes and texts at $0.06. Small Business covers 3 numbers (toll-free, local or vanity), unlimited users and extensions, 500 texts at $0.04 beyond that, and minutes listed as unlimited subject to the Fair Usage Policy. Extra numbers are $15 each on both plans. The older Complete plan ($99 yearly, $119 monthly in August) no longer appears, and AI Agents now sit behind a separate AI Plan whose price we could not read.

Flip that toggle and the monthly rates read $40 and $70 per license. The discount is not uniform either: Essentials really is 25% off, but Professional lands closer to 29%, so price the plan you will actually buy rather than trusting the badge. The comparison table sets a minimum of 3 users on Essentials and Professional, so the smallest Essentials bill is $90 a month on annual billing. Enterprise is custom pricing from 25 users. Both paid plans now say they include AI Voice Agents: Essentials lists 50 min AI Voice Agents per month, and Professional is everything in Essentials plus AI call summary and conversation intelligence, smart routing, Power Dialer and outbound campaigns; on the US storefront both list unlimited calls within US & Canada. AI Voice Agents can also be bought on their own, without the phone system, at a $100 per month minimum on annual billing or $125 monthly. Minutes beyond the allowance cost $0.49 a minute pay-as-you-go, dropping to $0.39 above 2,500, or come in bundles: $175 for 500 minutes, $725 for 2,500 and $1,900 for 10,000, then about $0.19 a minute up to 35,000 ($6,650); at 54,000 minutes the calculator switches to custom pricing as low as $0.12 a minute. Add-ons, per seat a month: AI Assist Pro $49, WhatsApp $10 plus WhatsApp's own messaging rates, Analytics+ $15 and Aircall for Salesforce Voice $30. AI Messaging Agents are $0.15 to $0.35 per conversation and branded caller ID $0.08 per call, so the licence fee is a floor rather than the bill. The separate AI Assist add-on at $9 that we read on 27 September is no longer in the add-on list; the comparison table now marks call summaries, topics and call scoring as AI Assist on all three plans.

Paying a year upfront takes about 10% off the monthly rate: $161, $296 and $575 for the three larger plans, while Starter stays at $40. There is also a $50 one-time start-up fee; it is still absent from the plan cards, but the page's FAQ now says plainly what it buys — customising the account, building your initial scripts and configuring routing. The plan cards no longer differ only in minutes (re-read 13 October 2026). Starter lists 24/7 cover, one phone number, call transfers, the portal and mobile app, email and SMS notifications, secure messaging, custom hold music, personalised greetings and usage reporting, with live multilingual answering shown at $1 a minute. Small Business adds one Follow Me number (valued at $15), a dedicated account manager and live chat at $5 a chat; Pro adds free call recording (valued at $10); Enterprise adds free appointment setting and one free integration (each valued at $50). The FAQ says there is no long-term contract and that you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel. The same page now also sells an AI answering line on the same minute bundles: $40 (0 minutes), $80 (100), $195 (250) and $350 (500) a month billed monthly, with AI minutes at $0.85, $0.80, $0.75 and $0.70 and live minutes at $1.75, $1.70, $1.60 and $1.60.

Read the tab before the number: the grid opens on yearly, so the lower column is what most write-ups quote, and the toggle beside it advertises \"Save 3 Months' Cost\" -- paying annually is a third cheaper per user. The $18 that a plain fetch kept printing for Starter was the placeholder sitting in the HTML before the pricing script runs, not a column any visitor is shown. Basic still costs nothing, but fair-usage note 8 lower on that page says it is free only for the first 6 months from signup, after which the account must move to Starter to keep working - so Basic is a long runway, not a permanent free tier. CHANGED SINCE SEPTEMBER: on 14 October 2026 the Starter card lists 'Unlimited Minutes (Includes Both Landline & Mobile Calling)' with 100 SMS and one month of call logs, and no longer displays the 2-user minimum, which survives only as commented-out markup; on 15 September the same card read 1,000 US/CA minutes and a minimum of 2 users. Fair-usage note 7 limits unlimited calling to domestic calls within the US and Canada. Professional (500 SMS) is where call recording, AI voicemail transcription, multilingual IVR and lifetime call logs begin. Ultimate adds smart DID, multilevel, holiday and CRM-based VIP routing with 1,000 SMS. Two different Enterprise cards sit on this page and they state different floors: the Core one a minimum of 20 users, the call-centre 'New Enterprise' a minimum of 50, both quote-only with unlimited calling to 48 countries.

Overages are in the notes: incoming minutes on standard numbers $0.02/min, incoming SMS $0.01 per message past fair use, outgoing calls to the same number capped at 10 per hour, and parallel calls capped at 30% of total call capacity.

Paid tiers are Starter $49, Pro $99 and Scale $199 a month, each with $0.10 per additional AI conversation and a 3-day free trial. Starter covers 250 conversations a month and 1,000 synced products, with full customisation and 30 days of insights. Pro covers 750 conversations and 10,000 products with advanced insights and 90 days of history, and Scale 2,000 conversations, unlimited products, a year of history and priority support. All charges are billed in USD and recur every 30 days. Worth knowing before you install. The vendor's own site, cloze.bot/pricing, advertised a different and cheaper ladder on the same day: Free forever with 50 conversations a month, Pro $29 a month and Business $79 a month. On that page both paid tiers say unlimited conversations rather than a monthly allowance. Our link goes to the App Store listing, so the $49/$99/$199 ladder, with its caps of 250, 750 and 2,000 conversations, is what you pay when you install there. The screenshot further down is their own page exactly as we captured it. Developer Optify, Lyon, France; the app launched 24 April 2026, carries Shopify's “Built for Shopify” badge and had no reviews at all at the time of writing. Re-read on 4 September 2026: both ladders still stood exactly as described above, and the listing had gained its first review — a single five-star note left on 14 August 2026 by a French store eight days in. Re-verified 11 October 2026: the App Store ladder (Free 25, Starter $49 for 250, Pro $99 for 750, Scale $199 for 2,000 conversations, $0.10 each beyond, 3-day trials) is unchanged, and so is the different ladder on cloze.bot/pricing (Free 50 conversations, Pro $29 and Business $79 with unlimited conversations). The listing still carries one review, dated 14 August 2026.",

Pro $18/seat/mo month-to-month or $10/seat/mo billed annually — unlimited AI summaries, 8,000 mins of storage per seat, 20 AI credits. Business $29/seat/mo month-to-month or $19/seat/mo billed annually — unlimited storage, 30 AI credits. Enterprise $39/seat/mo, annual only — 50 AI credits, SSO/SCIM, HIPAA, private storage. The plan prices are unchanged since our 31 August read. CORRECTION carried from that read: $10 and $19 are the annual rates, and month-to-month is 80% and 53% higher.\n\nWhat the cards do not say, the help guide does (read 16 October 2026). The 20/20/30/50 AI credits are a one-time allocation per account, not a monthly allowance: they are pooled for the whole workspace and do not grow with the number of seats, so a ten-seat Pro team shares the same 20 credits as one person on Free. More credits are a separate subscription: 50 for $5 a month ($4 billed annually), 200 for $20 ($16), 1,000 for $90 ($72), 2,500 for $200 ($160), 5,000 for $375 ($300), 7,500 for $450 ($360) and 10,000 for $600 ($480). Unused purchased credits do not carry over to the next billing cycle, and cancelling that add-on is separate from cancelling your main plan. The billing guide says a 7-day AI-credit trial converts to a paid AI credits subscription at $5 a month (or the plan you picked at the start) and that Auto-Upgrade is on by default, while the terms of service say Auto-Upgrade is off by default and needs your express consent; check the setting in your own billing page before you start that trial. The same billing guide (read 23 October 2026) adds that on a paid plan, once the one-time credits run out and you have no AI credits subscription, “Fireflies automatically subscribes you to the lowest AI credits tier ($5/month for 50 credits)”, and an existing credits subscriber who runs out is moved up to the next tier; Free users get a paywall instead of a charge. Daily Digest and Meeting Prep are on by default and use credits, so switch them off in AI Skills settings if you do not want them. Uploaded recordings from outside meetings have their own meter: 3,000 minutes per source per month for individuals, with overage charged at $0.01 a minute. Storage counts the total minutes you keep, not minutes per month.\n\nCancelling takes effect at the end of the paid period, and the terms ask you to cancel at least 24 hours before renewal. Refunds are where Fireflies' own pages disagree: the dedicated refund article allows a full refund within 7 days if you logged 3 meetings or fewer on a monthly plan, or 20 or fewer on an annual plan, with no pro-rated refund on annual plans and none on AI credits, while an older account article still says they don't offer refunds on subscriptions or AI credit purchases. Treat the 7-day window as the vendor's current policy, but ask support in writing before relying on it.",

On Freshdesk the annual rates are unchanged since 1 August 2026: Growth $19 per agent per month, Pro $55, Enterprise $89, billed annually. What has changed is that the monthly column is now published: Growth $23, Pro $66, Enterprise $107 per agent per month, billed monthly. The page's SAVE 20% badge overstates the gap — $19 against $23 is 17.4%, $55 against $66 is 16.7%, $89 against $107 is 16.8%. Freddy AI Agent is included with the first 500 sessions; additional sessions are $49 per 100. Freddy AI Copilot is a separate add-on at $29 per agent per month annually, or $35 monthly, on Pro and Enterprise only. Day passes are $2, $7 and $12 per pass on Growth, Pro and Enterprise. Connector app tasks are $80 per 5,000 tasks. The 14-day free trial starts you on Enterprise (in our test on 21 October 2026 the sign-up page promised a '14-day all-access free trial' and the app then said 'your 15-day trial starts today'). Re-verified 11 October 2026 on freshworks.com/freshdesk/pricing/: the annual rates ($19, $55, $89), the $29 Copilot add-on, the $49 per 100 extra AI Agent sessions, the $2/$7/$12 day passes and the $80 per 5,000 connector tasks are unchanged, and a new add-on is listed on every tier: MCP actions at $15 per 1,000. The monthly column is not in the page source we read, so the monthly figures above date from 29 August 2026. The FAQ on the same page adds that the 500 free AI Agent sessions are given once per account, not every month; that an email AI Agent session is a 72-hour window from the customer's first email; that purchased session packs expire with your payment cycle; and that downgrades and cancellations take effect only at the end of your term.",

Free covers 10 tickets a month and charges $0.25 for each one after that. Basic is $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year, a 17% saving, and covers 50 tickets, then $0.16 each. Standard is $19.99 or $199.99 a year for 300 tickets, then $0.15. Advanced is $49.99 or $498.96 a year for 1,000 tickets, then $0.10. Every paid tier carries a 14-day free trial and all charges are billed in USD. Which means the headline $5.99 only holds to 50 tickets a month: at 300 tickets Basic works out at $45.99, because the 250 over the allowance add $40 — while Standard includes those same 300 for $19.99.

The page localises its currency — it quotes $34 / $39 / $99 to a US visitor and €34 / €39 / €99 to a Dutch one, the same numerals either way.) Starter is free. Bronze is $34 a month, Silver $39 and Gold $99, each billed annually, with 'save up to 20%' against monthly billing; Enterprise is quoted. On the AI Agents page the ladder is drawn in agents and conversations, not in forms and submissions: 5 agents and 100 monthly conversations on Starter, 25 and 1,000 on Bronze, 50 and 2,500 on Silver, 100 and 10,000 on Gold. Sessions, voice-call minutes, SMS and knowledge-base characters are metered alongside — 10,000 / 100,000 / 1,000,000 / 2,000,000 monthly sessions and 50 / 100 / 200 / 300 voice minutes across the same four tiers. Jotform defines a session as a chatbot view, a page refresh or a phone call starting, whether or not anyone interacts. The same plan data, read from a Netherlands exit on 24 Sep 2026, gives the annual totals as 408, 468 and 1,188 and the month-to-month rates as 39, 49 and 129 (in euros there), so monthly billing costs about 15% more on Bronze, 26% on Silver and 30% on Gold. Conversations count chat and phone alike, and the voice-call limit is shared between voice calls and calls to a dedicated phone number, which is a separate add-on (also available on Starter) whose price the served page does not print.

Higher volume is quote-only. Starter and Pro carry a 14-day trial, Enterprise 30 days. On our previous reading, 17 August, the pricing page opened with a missed-call ROI calculator and the tier list could not be retrieved at all; it is worth knowing that the plan table on this site comes and goes, and that the calculator's outputs ($500 average job value producing $750 a week and $39,000 a year of lost revenue) are illustrations rather than prices.\n\nLucroChat, the website chat product from the same vendor, sits on lucrovox.com/lucrochat with its own table metered on monthly conversations rather than calls: Starter $29 for up to 1,000 conversations on one website, Growth $59 for up to 3,000 conversations on up to three websites, Professional $199 for up to 10,000 conversations on unlimited websites, each with a 14-day trial and no card required. Its own FAQ agrees, describing pricing as starting at $29 a month for 1,000 conversations. One number on that page does not agree with the rest: the ROI calculator above the table reports its result “Based on Growth plan ($99/mo)” while the table prices Growth at $59. Read the plan table, not the calculator. LucroVox's partnerships team told us on 15 September 2026 that LucroChat had moved to $49, $99 and $249 and that the calculator now matches the table; we read both pages that same day and neither had happened. The table still prints $29, $59 and $199, the FAQ still says pricing starts at $29, and the calculator still reports $99. Those higher figures may well be where the product is heading, so if checkout quotes you $49, that is the vendor running ahead of its own pricing page. We publish what the page shows.

Taxes and fees are added at checkout and are not quantified on the page. Itemised extras: The Campaign Registry takes $19.50 once plus $1.50-$3/month to keep US carrier messaging deliverable, each additional phone number is $5/month, and international calling is billed per minute. The Sona AI answering agent is included on every plan with 1,000 automation credits a month (a call costs 100 credits, so ten calls); more credits run $25/mo for 4,000 up to $199/mo for 60,000, with per-call overage falling from $1.00 to $0.45 across those tiers. Re-verified 11 October 2026 on quo.com/pricing: all six rates, the $180/$276/$420 annual totals, the Sona credit tiers and overage rates, the $19.50 and $1.50-$3 Campaign Registry fees and the $5 extra number are unchanged. Two lines the earlier reading did not carry: the compare-plans table caps Starter at up to 10 paid users (Business and Scale unlimited), and Quo's help article 'Quo Plans and Pricing' (read 11 October 2026) adds a $15 Campaign Registry resubmission fee if a registration has to be resubmitted and lists the 16 states where telecom taxes are collected, based on your billing address.",

The page labels the annual price '20% OFF' and says 'Save 20% when you sign up for an annual plan'; our arithmetic gives 16.7% ($199 is $40 below $239, $249 is $50 below $299; a 20% cut would be $191.20 and $239.20). A Custom option is offered for 20+ licenses. Both waive the set-up fee and the phone-number (DID) activation fee, both give free outbound minutes subject to a fair-use policy, and both charge inbound at $0.02/min. Starter includes up to 30 DIDs per license; iQ includes up to 75 and adds caller-ID reputation monitoring, assisted remediation, call cadencing, Autopilot and unlimited integrations, none of which Starter has. Implementation and training are included from 3 licenses. One complimentary Admin license comes with every plan, and the page is explicit that it is not an agent license — no floor plan, no web phone. Voicemail Drop is available only to those who qualify and costs extra per drop. Before 1 August 2026 $199 and $249 were the only published prices; since our 15 October reading the same two amounts are the annual rates. The ~$200 admin fee for sharing a license is not on the pricing page.

   "price_note": "(2026-08-13, read off respond.io/pricing) Four tiers, billed on monthly active contacts rather than seats: Starter $79/month, Growth $159, Advanced $279, and Enterprise on quote. Paying yearly takes roughly 20% off — $948, $1,908 and $3,348 a year against $1,188, $2,388 and $4,188 monthly. The trial is 7 days and takes no card. What separates the tiers is not volume but capability, and the line matters: Starter buys team and custom inboxes, the mobile app, AI Prompt, AI Assist, basic reports and 2FA. **Workflows automation, broadcasts, AI Agents, advanced reports, the developer API and the Zapier and Make integrations all start at Growth.** Advanced adds multiple workspaces, SSO, webhooks, HTTP requests in workflows and phone-number masking, and although a figure is shown its button says “Talk to Sales”. One thing we could not pin down. The page carries a selector for 1,000 / 2,500 / 5,000 / 10,000 / more than 10,000 monthly active contacts under the heading “pay only for the contacts you talk to”, but the prices we read did not move between those settings. Ask what your contact volume actually costs before you sign — that is the meter you are buying. Re-verified 11 October 2026 on respond.io/pricing: the yearly totals ($948, $1,908, $3,348) and the monthly totals ($1,188, $2,388, $4,188) are unchanged. Read them carefully: the $79, $159 and $279 shown per month are the yearly rates, and the page data gives $99, $199 and $349 for month-to-month billing. The plan comparison now lists users per tier — 5 on Starter, 10 on Growth and Advanced, extra users at $12, $20 and $24 a month on yearly billing ($15, $25 and $30 monthly) — plus AI Credits of 5,000, 10,000, 20,000 and 40,000. In that same table Starter shows unlimited monthly active contacts, while Growth and Advanced 'start with 1,000', so the contact meter applies from Growth up. The trial gives Growth features for 5 users and 1,000 contacts, without broadcasts.",

Monthly billing: Basic is $25 a month for 500 credits a month; Pro is $329 a month for 10,000 credits a month; Enterprise is contact-for-pricing with custom credits. Both plans carry a credits dropdown that raises the allowance for a fixed add-on. On Basic, 1,000 credits is +$24, 2,500 is +$74, 5,000 is +$154 and 7,500 is +$224 a month. On Pro the ladder runs from 15,000 credits at +$150 up to 50,000 at +$1,170 a month, in 5,000-credit steps. Annual billing is shown as two months free. Basic is $21 a month billed yearly for 6,000 credits a year (12,000 credits +$252, 30,000 +$756, 60,000 +$1,560, 90,000 +$2,268), and Pro $277 a month billed yearly for 120,000 credits a year (180,000 +$1,512, rising to 600,000 at +$11,796). Seats and numbers are priced apart from the plan: the first seat is free and each additional seat is $10.00 a month or $100.00 a year; the first number is free and each additional number is $5.00 a month or $50.00 a year. The page defines the meter itself: SMS is 1 credit per 160 characters, MMS is 2 credits, calling is 1 credit a minute and call forwarding is 2 credits a minute. A 14-day free trial runs, and a 30-day money-back guarantee is offered, refunded less the message credits used.

SMS = 1 credit, an extended message up to 306 characters = 2, MMS = 3; incoming SMS is free and incoming MMS costs 1 credit. Extra credits beyond the plan taper with the tier, from 5.5 cents at 500 to 2 cents at 50,000. Yearly billing takes 20% off the credit portion only — the entry tier becomes $23.20 of credits plus the same $10 number, i.e. $33.20 a month billed yearly at $398.40 — and grants the year's credits as one upfront bucket (6,000 at the entry tier) instead of a monthly allowance. The rollover rule the page states is for monthly plans: unused plan credits roll over until the end of the following month. Every paid plan includes three user seats, with additional seats at $20/mo and additional numbers at $10/mo; a local number carries a $4 activation fee and there is a separate one-off $4 carrier (10DLC) registration. A toll-free number has no additional monthly fee but carrier approval can take up to a week; dedicated short codes begin at $1,000/mo and take 6-8 weeks to provision. Carrier fees are passed through without markup at roughly $0.0025 per message in the US and $0.0068 in Canada.

Starter is 24.17 a month billed annually against 29 paid monthly, Growth starts at 49.17 annually against 59 monthly, and the two stand-alone add-ons follow the same 20 percent step: the Lyro AI Agent from 32.50 annually against 39 monthly, Flows from 24.17 against 29. Plus is 300 a month in both columns and adds usage on top; Premium is contact-for-pricing. Tidio's own homepage quotes the higher, monthly number (“Paid plans from $29/mo, no surprise upgrades”), which makes the marketing page the more conservative of the two places you can read a price. The table rendered in euros on our reading while the same numerals appear with dollar signs on other retrievals of the same URL, so treat the figure rather than the symbol as the fact and confirm the currency at checkout.\n\nWhat you pay is decided by three separate meters, not by the plan name. The free plan carries 50 billable conversations, 100 Flows visitors reached and 50 Lyro AI conversations, and the comparison table's own footnote makes that last allowance a lifetime one rather than a monthly one. Starter covers 100 billable conversations, Growth starts at 250 and the table caps it at 2,000, both with 10 seats and a 7-day free trial. Lyro conversations are upgradable from 50 to 1,000 and Flows visitors from 2,000 to 100,000. Two things the page does not say: what a conversation over the cap costs, and what the “discounted usage rates” next to Plus's “+ monthly usage” actually are. On Plus that unquoted rate is the whole variable, because the 300 is only the entry fee.",

Annual billing saves 20% and every tier carries a 14-day trial. The feature list is identical on all four — branded tracking page, estimated delivery dates, email, WhatsApp and US-only SMS updates, Apple and Google Wallet tracking, Klaviyo, Omnisend, Segment and chatbot integrations, product upsell and translation — so the only thing the ladder sells is shipment volume. The Shopify listing does not say what happens past your allowance. The vendor's own page does: parceltrackr.com/pricing, read the same day, prints $0.05 per extra shipment on every tier. That number decides whether you upgrade or overrun, because in-plan a shipment costs 2.5 cents on Basic, 2.25 on Standard, 1.7 on Advanced and 1.4 on Enterprise — so an overrun is priced at two to four times what the same shipment costs inside the plan. The two sources also disagree about the trial: the listing offers 3,000 and 5,000 bonus trackings on Advanced and Enterprise, the vendor page 1,500 and 2,000. Re-read on 13 October 2026, the vendor page also contradicts itself on annual billing: the plan cards say $96 a year for Basic and $432 for Standard (20% off), while the text below them says $108 ($9 a month) and $486 ($40.50 a month), which is 10% off; the Shopify listing matches the cards.

Starter is $250 a month with 1 agent and no included usage: you pay for usage as you go. Business 500 is $700 a month with 1 agent and $500 of usage included each month, Business 1k is $1,150 with $1,000 included, and Business 2k is $2,050 with $2,000 included; Vida labels these as saving $600, $1,200 and $2,400 a year.

Add-ons on any plan: additional agents $250 per agent a month, phone numbers $5 per number a month and Text Messaging $25 a month; premium support, advanced privacy, SOC 2 security, outbound and managed agents are quoted.
