How CustomGPT bills

Query credits

What you'll actually pay

The headline price is rarely the bill. Here's what CustomGPT adds on top, quoted from its pricing page, and a month priced out.

Worked example

Standard, 1,000 messages

1,000 chat messages a month at one query credit each uses all 1,000 of Standard's queries.

Standard10 agents, 1,000 queries a month
$99
Totalper month, billed monthly
$99

Lead capture and other agentic actions use more credits, and agents stop responding at the limit, so lead capture at this volume points to Premium at $499 a month. Removing “Powered by CustomGPT.ai” branding starts on Premium.

The same volume on ChatBento (our product)

Hobby$8 a month

2,000 AI messages / month, AI answers included, no seats or per-resolution fees.

An illustration from CustomGPT's published prices, not a quote. Most examples use the same month: 500 conversations, about 2 AI replies each, 2 people on the team, and the AI resolving half the conversations. Sources: customgpt.ai/pricing, customgpt.ai/pricing.

On top of the plan price

  • CustomGPT counts query credits: a regular chat message uses one, and agentic actions such as lead capture use more. When you reach the limit, agents stop responding to new queries. Source
  • Removing “Powered by CustomGPT.ai” branding starts on Premium. Source

Is CustomGPT worth it?

CustomGPT is an AI chatbot builder, the same kind of tool as ChatBento, so the question is what its extra features are worth to you.

What the money buys

  • 1,400+ document formats

    CustomGPT trains on websites, help desks and knowledge bases, PDFs, Office files and 1,400+ formats, plus YouTube, audio and podcasts, on every plan.

    customgpt.ai/pricing
  • Many data connectors

    Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Confluence, SharePoint, Zendesk, Notion, HubSpot, Shopify, Freshdesk and GitBook, among others.

    customgpt.ai/integrations
  • An API and Slack

    RAG API access from Standard, Slack deployment and Zapier on all plans.

    customgpt.ai/pricing
  • Compliance

    SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR on all plans, with Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock options on Enterprise.

Worth it if

  • You need the bot to learn from large document libraries, drives or media.
  • You want a RAG API to build your own app on, or Slack deployment.
  • You need SOC 2 Type 2 paperwork, and $89 to $499 a month fits.

Harder to justify if

  • You want one predictable bill, without the usage-based charges listed above.
  • You want to start without paying: CustomGPT has no free plan.
  • You mainly need AI answers on your website, which ChatBento does from $8 a month.

A cheaper option: ChatBento

ChatBento is our product. It's an AI chatbot for your website: it learns from your pages and Q&As, answers visitors around the clock, captures leads and emails you when a person is needed. One flat monthly price, AI included, no seats. Its lowest paid plan is $8 a month; CustomGPT's starts at $89.

Does CustomGPT charge extra for AI or usage?

What will I actually pay for CustomGPT?

It depends on volume. One example: 1,000 chat messages a month at one query credit each uses all 1,000 of Standard's queries. By CustomGPT's published prices that comes to $99 a month, billed monthly. The same volume on ChatBento's Hobby plan is $8 a month.

Is CustomGPT worth the price?

It can be, if you need the bot to learn from large document libraries, drives or media. It also earns its price if you want a RAG API to build your own app on, or Slack deployment. If you mainly want AI answers on your website, you'd be paying for more than you use.

What is a cheaper alternative to CustomGPT?

ChatBento, an AI chatbot for your website that learns from your pages and Q&As, captures leads and hands off to you by email. It has a free plan with 50 AI messages a month, then $8, $30 or $100 a month, with no seats or per-resolution fees. It doesn't yet cover everything CustomGPT lists: native integrations.
