What you'll actually pay: LandinChat vs Zoko

Zoko's headline plans look cheap but cap agents and gate the chatbot, ads dashboard and advanced automation behind upgrades. LandinChat includes unlimited agents, chatbot, ads dashboard and shared inbox on every paid plan, with Meta conversation costs at par.
