Their pricing model
Manychat has three public plans billed monthly: Pro at $39, Business at $99 and Advanced at $199. They include 2,500, 7,500 and 25,000 active contacts; each extra contact costs from $0.05 on Pro down to $0.004 on Advanced.
The team is capped: Pro allows 3 users, Business 5 and Advanced 10. Only some of them answer from the inbox: 2, 3 or 5 seats included, and each extra seat costs $25 a month up to the plan's maximum. For more than 10 people, Manychat publishes no price.
All three plans advertise AI, but Manychat doesn't publish how many replies or credits each includes. So our figure adds only its published charges: plan, seats and contacts. API access for your own integrations requires Advanced.
