Chatbase is a good product — that's why it's popular. But for a small business that just wants an AI assistant on its website answering customers and capturing leads, you're paying for a builder platform when what you wanted was a finished chatbot.

Paste your URL. We crawl your pages, build a knowledge base, brand the widget in your colors, and hand you a one-line embed code. The bot answers customer questions from your actual content, 24/7, and emails you every lead it captures. There is no bot-builder to learn, no prompt engineering, no credits to watch.
One flat price. CA$29/month. The AI is not an add-on, conversations are not metered into anxiety, and there are no seats. If your bill surprising you is the thing you hate about chatbot tools — that is the thing we removed.
Honesty makes this page useful: if you need the same bot deployed across WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram and Slack, or you want API actions wired into tools like Calendly and Zendesk, Chatbase's platform depth wins. AutoGrow is deliberately narrower — the best possible website chatbot, done for you, at a price a small business does not have to think about.
Paste your website URL and watch a chatbot trained on your content answer real questions in about 60 seconds. No signup, no card.
