Crisp
Crisp · Customer Support
French all-in-one customer messaging platform (live chat + shared inbox + knowledge base). Positioned as the alternative to Intercom at roughly 1/10th the price. Distinctive for its "lifetime deal" mentality — flat pricing per workspace, not per contact or per seat, which lets fast-growing SMBs avoid the Intercom scaling trap. Priced $0-$95/mo per workspace. Popular with SMBs and European e-commerce.
In other words, Crisp is worth it for small businesses and startups (1-30 people) that want live chat + shared inbox + chatbot in one tool — particularly if you're EU-based and value the French-native UX polish. Free tier is usable; Mini covers solo/small; Essentials adds shared inbox and automations; Plus adds AI and MagicReply. Very easy setup. Native integrations with Slack, WhatsApp, Messenger, Shopify, and 50+ apps. Downside: EUR-native pricing surprises USD-based teams (FX drift), and knowledge base + ticketing are lighter than Intercom/Zendesk.
Pricing summary

Main metered limit
VERIFIED UNCHANGED 2026-09-18 (daily refresh): Mini €45/mo, Essentials €95/mo, Plus €295/mo re-confirmed, all billed per WORKSPACE per month rather than per seat (Featurebase, DragApp, supp.support, Chatimize, G2). Native currency EUR confirmed — no currency mismatch. CONVERSION CHECK: at the 1.08 EUR→USD table rate, €45 = $48.60, €95 = $102.60, €295 = $318.60, which reproduces our stored USD-equivalents exactly to the cent. All three tiers compute Stable against the 2026-07-29 snapshots and no rows were written. DETAIL REFRESHED: extra seats beyond a tier's allowance are €10/agent/mo (we had this noted as '+$10/extra agent' on Plus — it is €-denominated and applies beyond each tier's seat limit, not only on Plus). Included AI credits are $5 on Mini, $25 on Essentials, $75 on Plus and expire monthly rather than rolling over; seat counts are 4 / 10 / 20+. HOUSEKEEPING NOTE on the snapshot table: there is an unlinked-name row dated 2026-07-25 with Tier Name 'Entry' at monthly 45 and Direction 'Up' that is almost certainly this record's Mini plan captured at its NATIVE €45 without conversion, under the generic 'Entry' label. It is stranded between our old 'Entry' naming and the current Mini/Essentials/Plus naming. This run used the real tier names throughout, so the stray row did not affect any Direction computation, but it should be either relabelled or removed so the Mini price line on the frontend graph is continuous.
