Chatbots you build by dragging blocks
Landbot is a visual builder for conversations, on a website widget, in Messenger or over WhatsApp, and the flow is a canvas rather than a script anybody has to write. Conditional logic, A/B tests and custom code blocks are there once the simple version stops being enough. Chats are metered per plan, so a bot that gets popular is a bot that needs the next tier.
Our note
AI chats are metered at ten cents each on top of the plan, and WhatsApp is priced per message beyond that. The $45 is a floor, so estimate volume before setting this against Manychat or Chatfuel.

LiveChat
Live chat with the price printed both ways
LiveChat puts a chat window on a site and routes the conversations to whoever is answering, with canned replies, transcripts and a record of what somebody was looking at when they asked. It is priced per person rather than per conversation, so a solo operator pays for one seat. The chatbot is a separate product from the same company at its own price. For a creator selling a course or a service, this is the direct line.
