Checked September 25, 2026 against Botsonic's public homepage and plan pages. Everything in the Botsonic column is their own public claim, not something we have verified working. Everything in the Dchat column is read from the shipping code. Recheck before sales or legal use.
If you only need a bot and never a person, Botsonic is a quick start. If customers must be able to reach your team in the same chat, Dchat includes that on every plan.
