How Formala compares
We wrote these, so read them knowing that. What we can do is be straight with you: every page below starts with what the other product does better than Formala, because on several of these the answer is quite a lot, and on one of them the honest advice is to buy theirs.
Every price carries the billing term it comes with, since an annual headline rate next to a monthly one is the easiest way to be misled. Prices were read off each vendor’s own pricing page by hand on 26 August 2026. Where we could not confirm something, the page says so rather than filling the gap with a sensible-looking number.
Pricing
Simple pricing. Every core feature included.
10 conversations a month free, no card. The free plan keeps a small “Powered by Formala” line on the widget, and any paid plan removes it. Every plan has every core feature. Bigger plans add volume, and then Starter adds your own help center and learning from real chats; Growth adds team seats; Pro adds the AI follow-up engine and sending from your own domain; Business adds auto-sent AI replies.

Add voice: let visitors talk to it out loud
A microphone in the chat. Visitors speak instead of typing and hear the answer back, and you get the same transcript and the same lead as any other conversation. Works with any plan, on as many forms as you like.
