Small and mid-sized teams that want a shared inbox rather than a heavy ticketing system
Teams that want a free starting plan for up to five people
Watch out for
Costs scale with ticket volume; overage is $0.36 to $0.40 per extra ticket
AI Agent is billed per interaction ($1.00 on monthly contracts, $1.50 above the plan allowance) and each also counts as a ticket
Voice and SMS are add-ons with volume-based pricing not shown on the page
Envoy chatbot resolutions are billed on top of the plan at $0.75 each
Additional inboxes cost extra ($10 a month paid annually, $12 monthly)
Plan limits on inboxes and users are stated differently in different parts of the pricing page
