Before you decide
Botpress vs Decagon: buying questions
How should I compare Botpress and Decagon pricing?
Botpress: Subscription plus conversation packs and AI usage beyond the included allowance. Plus packs cost $65 per 100 conversations; Team packs $50 per 100. Paid plans automatically add conversation packs and $10 AI credit grants near the limit. AI and human-assisted conversations both count; added packs recur until removed. Decagon: Per-conversation or per-resolution pricing, with negotiated rates affected by volume and commitment. Ask how resolutions are measured and which implementation and channel costs are included. Ask both vendors to quote the same expected workload, required channels, and implementation scope. Include required subscriptions and usage charges before comparing the total; the listed starting prices alone may cover different work.
Can Botpress and Decagon use my existing knowledge?
The recorded sources for Botpress include websites; documents; knowledge bases; structured data; API tools. For Decagon, they include help docs; past tickets; product data; billing/CRM APIs. Ask each vendor to demonstrate ingestion or live access for the exact system you use, with permissions and refresh behavior. A source missing from this directory is not proof that a vendor cannot support it.
What should I test in a Botpress vs Decagon pilot?
Use the same sample of real support requests, approved knowledge, and escalation rules in both pilots. Can it cite or restrict answers to approved knowledge? What happens when the agent is uncertain? Which actions can it complete beyond answering? Record answer quality, completed tasks, human handoffs, and total cost in the buyer worksheet. Check these specific cautions before launch: Botpress: Separate AI spend can make costs less predictable; production quality depends on workflow design and model configuration. Decagon: No public rate card; may require a separate helpdesk for human workflows and reporting.
