Description of Crisp
Crisp is a customer support platform from Crisp IM SAS. It brings messages from several channels into one shared inbox and includes a website chat widget that can be added to a site, web app or native iOS, Android or React apps. Other parts cover a knowledge base and help center, a built-in customer database, reports on team performance, automations and marketing messages.
Its AI agent is called Hugo. You teach it about your product from your website, PDFs and knowledge base articles, and it answers customers and hands over to people. The suite also has smart replies, auto-summaries, writing tools and a support copilot trained on your own content. AI use draws on credits that are bundled with each plan, and the price of extra credits was not read.
Pricing is a flat fee per workspace, not per seat. The Free plan includes two seats and the chat widget but no AI credits. Mini is $45 per month for four seats and $5 of AI credits, and adds a shared email inbox and custom email domain. Essentials is $95 per month for ten seats and $25 of credits and adds the omnichannel inbox, workflow builder, omnichannel AI chatbot and knowledge base. Plus is $295 per month for twenty or more seats and $75 of credits and adds ticketing, white labelling and advanced analytics. Enterprise is quoted.
The pricing page offers a 14-day free trial of all features without a card. No security certifications or data location statements were read on the pages checked.
