Try HelpBird freeSee pricing
Crisp

Crisp is a strong, design-forward all-in-one with a shared inbox, chatbot, and omnichannel messaging, and like HelpBird it avoids per-seat fees by charging per workspace. The tradeoff is that its paid entry point is high in absolute dollars and each plan caps included agents, so very small teams may pay more than they need.

Best for: Small-to-mid teams that want omnichannel messaging and a generous free tier with flat, not per-seat, pricing.

Pricing: Crisp uses flat per-workspace pricing with a free tier, then paid plans starting from around $45/mo (Mini) up to around $95 and $295/mo on higher tiers. Plans include a fixed number of seats, with extra seats charged on the top plan.

HelpBird

Best for: Budget-conscious teams that want flat pricing but at a much lower absolute entry point with truly unlimited agents.

Pricing: HelpBird is also flat, but starts far lower at $3 or $9/mo and includes unlimited agents on every paid plan.
