How to choose AI Chatbots tools
ChatGPT is the only completely free tool here and covers writing, coding, and answering questions. Claude AI has a free plan and adds a $20/month paid tier; it is the must-try pick among these tools. AI Receptionist starts at $99/month and focuses entirely on booking appointments and capturing leads from website visitors. LivePerson gives no price without a sales call across all three of its plans.

Claude
AI ReceptionistFree access vs paid from day one
ChatGPT costs nothing and has no time limit on its free plan. Claude AI, Poe, and Grok also offer free access, though advanced features on each require a paid plan. Pi AI is free to start and stays free at the community level. On the paid-only side, ChatNode starts at $35/month, AI Receptionist at $99/month, and CoSupport AI charges from $0.19 per resolved ticket or from $99/month on a fixed server plan. WhosOn has no free plan; it offers a 30-day trial, then bills in GBP per license per year. If you want to test an AI assistant before spending anything, ChatGPT is the only one here with no cost at all.
General assistant or customer-facing tool
ChatGPT, Claude AI, and Grok are tools you use yourself: ask a question, write something, or get help with code. Claude AI connects with Canva and Slack and handles a long stretch of text in one go. Grok adds real-time web search and can generate images and video. ChatNode and CoSupport AI work differently: they sit in front of your customers, answer support questions automatically, and hand off to a human agent when needed. ChatNode retrains itself on your content and works across multiple channels. AI Receptionist answers visitor questions, books appointments, and sends follow-up emails, but it uses its own booking setup rather than deep calendar connections.
How much each tool tells you about price
Claude AI lists four plans from $0 to $200/month. ChatNode lists three plans from $35 to $377/month. AI Receptionist lists two plans at $99 and $149/month. CoSupport AI shows three billing models with per-ticket, per-response, and monthly server options. Grok shows a free plan but sends you to a sales contact for its SuperGrok subscription details. LivePerson lists three plan names, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, but all three require a sales call with no number given. If knowing the price before a call matters to you, LivePerson is the one tool here where that is not possible.

Frequently asked questions
Which AI chatbot tools are completely free?
ChatGPT is the only completely free tool here, with no time limit and no payment required. Claude AI, Poe, Grok, Pi AI, and Bland all have free plans, but advanced features or higher usage on each require a paid subscription. Tools like ChatNode, AI Receptionist, CoSupport AI, and LivePerson have no free plan at all.
BlandWhich tools are built for automating customer support?
AI Receptionist, ChatNode, and CoSupport AI are the three tools here built specifically for customer support automation. AI Receptionist handles bookings, lead capture, and follow-up emails starting at $99/month. ChatNode starts at $35/month, retrains on your content automatically, and can hand a conversation to a human agent. CoSupport AI offers three billing models including a per-ticket option from $0.19, which suits teams that want to pay only when a ticket is resolved.
Which tool helps most with writing and coding?
ChatGPT, Claude AI, and Grok all cover both writing and coding. Claude AI is the must-try pick here: it handles long documents, generates and debugs code, and connects with tools like Slack and Canva. Its free plan exists, and paid plans start at $20/month. ChatGPT is free with no limit and covers the same ground. Grok adds real-time web search, which helps when you need current information while writing or researching.
Which tools give a price without a sales call?
Most tools here publish at least one price. Claude AI, ChatNode, AI Receptionist, CoSupport AI, WhosOn, Bland, and MagicBuddy all list prices on their pages. LivePerson is the exception: all three of its plans, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, require a sales call with no number given. Grok shows a free plan but gives no price for its SuperGrok subscription without contacting sales.
MagicBuddyIs there an AI chatbot tool that works inside Telegram?
MagicBuddy runs inside Telegram and delivers AI-powered answers there without a separate app. It is paid only, with plans ranging from $12.99/month on a monthly basis down to $5.99/month on a 12-month plan. It also supports voice messages and can generate images. It does not work outside Telegram, so it suits people who already spend most of their time in that messaging app.
Which tools handle phone calls as well as chat?
Bland and AI Receptionist both handle voice. Bland is built for automated phone agents at scale, with plans starting at a free tier that charges $0.14 per connected minute, rising to $299/month and $499/month on higher plans. AI Receptionist answers website chat rather than inbound phone calls, but it books appointments and sends follow-up emails automatically. LivePerson also supports multiple communication channels but gives no pricing without a sales call.
