Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Crisp
Shared inbox priced per workspace, not per seat
Crisp puts live chat, email, and the social inboxes into one thread per customer, and charges for the workspace rather than for each person in it. For a small team that pricing is the reason to look: adding a second and third person changes nothing on the bill. The free tier is a real chat widget rather than a countdown, which makes it a fair place to start.
Our note
Per-workspace pricing is the whole argument, and it gets stronger with every person you add. At one seat it is unremarkable; at five it is a fraction of what the per-seat inboxes charge for the same job.

Typebot
Conversational forms, open source
Typebot builds a form that behaves like a chat: one question at a time, branching on the answers, embedded in a page or sent as a link. The free plan runs two hundred conversations a month with no cap on how many bots exist. It is open source, so the whole thing can be self-hosted instead of subscribed to. Pricing counts chats rather than seats, which means a bot that gets popular costs more even if nobody else joins the team.
