A Better AI-Powered Tidio Alternative
Tidio's AI is limited and expensive. Chateta gives you RAG-powered auto-reply, a full knowledge base, and team inbox, with better value at every tier.
Why Switch from Tidio?
Limited AI Capabilities
Tidio's Lyro AI relies on basic FAQ matching, not true RAG. It can't deeply understand your documentation or provide nuanced answers like Chateta can.
Expensive AI Pricing
Tidio charges separately for AI conversations. Their Lyro add-on starts at $39/mo for just 50 conversations. Chateta includes 100 AI replies free, and 5,000 for €25/mo.
No Built-In Knowledge Base
Tidio lacks a proper knowledge base for self-service. You need external tools. Chateta includes a full knowledge base that powers both self-service and AI replies.
Per-Conversation AI Billing
Tidio counts each AI conversation separately, making costs unpredictable as you scale. Chateta's flat pricing means no surprises.
