The table below preserves each vendor’s scope and qualifiers. An unlisted feature is unverified here; it is not a claim that the feature is unavailable.
Before buying
HubSpot Breeze: Eligible HubSpot Professional or Enterprise subscription plus shared HubSpot Credits. Required seats, subscription commitments and any onboarding depend on the chosen route. Credits are shared with other usage-based features; confirm included allowance, credit rate and overage or auto-upgrade settings. Forethought: Platform access fee plus outcome-based usage. Optional add-ons and possible overages affect the total; request the included outcome volume and excess-usage rates in the proposal. 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.
The recorded sources for HubSpot Breeze include HubSpot knowledge base; CRM records; tickets; website content. For Forethought, they include past tickets; help center; web content; internal knowledge. 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.
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: HubSpot Breeze: Customer Agent eligibility extends beyond Service Hub, but specific channels and CRM actions require configuration. Shared credit limits can pause usage or trigger additional purchased capacity under the account billing settings. Forethought: Pricing is quote-only; product availability and ownership/branding should be checked during procurement.
