Before you decide
Chatbase vs SiteGPT: buying questions

Auto-recharge is $40 per 1,000 message credits; extra agents cost $25/month and branding removal $99/month. Model choice affects credit use. SiteGPT: Subscription by chatbot, source-page, team-member and message allowances. Starter includes 1 bot and 1,000 pages; Growth 2 bots and 10,000 pages; Scale 3 bots and 50,000 pages. Extra 5,000-message packs cost $59/month. Refresh schedules and integrations vary by tier. 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 Chatbase and SiteGPT use my existing knowledge?
The recorded sources for Chatbase include URLs; sitemaps; PDFs; documents; tickets. For SiteGPT, they include website pages; sitemaps; PDFs/files; Q&A. 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 Chatbase vs SiteGPT pilot?
Use the same sample of real support requests, approved knowledge, and escalation rules in both pilots. Which source types and sync schedules are supported? Can users inspect citations? How are unanswered questions reviewed? Record answer quality, completed tasks, human handoffs, and total cost in the buyer worksheet. Check these specific cautions before launch: Chatbase: Credits, custom-domain, branding and advanced features can be add-ons; model total cost at volume. SiteGPT: Message and page caps apply; annual toggle can make headline prices differ from monthly billing.
