Is this a switch worth making?

We would rather you stayed on tawk.to than churned in month two.

Switch to Corebee if

  • Teams tired of manually answering every chat with no AI assistance whatsoever
  • Companies spending on hired agents ($1/hr) that could be replaced by AI resolution
  • Businesses wanting 24/7 coverage without staffing agents around the clock

Stay on tawk.to if

  • Bootstrapped startups with near-zero budget that cannot afford $99/month yet
  • Teams with extremely low chat volume (under 10 chats/day) where manual handling is fine
  • Businesses that prefer tawk.to's hired agent service for fully outsourced support

Where tawk.to is genuinely good: completely free live chat software with no conversation limits or hidden fees; available in 45+ languages with one of the largest user bases globally; offers affordable hired agents at $1/hour for teams that need human coverage.

  • Wonderchat

    Wonderchat is an AI chatbot builder that trains on your website pages and documents, such as PDFs, and answers visitors in a chat box on your site. It fits a small site that wants an answer bot on the page rather than a full support inbox, and a teammate can take over the chat live when needed. For numbers on how AI support performs in practice, Wonderchat's customer support trends report covers 5.85 million conversations.

Questions people ask before switching

Straight answers, including where Corebee is the wrong tool.

Nothing here needs a call to check. The $99 Pro line and the handoff are both live in the trial.

Start free — no card
Why pay $99/month when tawk.to is free?

tawk.to requires a human agent for every conversation. At even modest volume, you need dedicated support staff. Corebee's AI resolves 86% of questions automatically — the cost of one hour of agent time pays for a month of Corebee.

Can I migrate my tawk.to chat history to Corebee?

Corebee starts fresh rather than importing chat history. Set up your knowledge base with your product documentation and the AI immediately starts resolving questions. Most teams are fully operational within an hour.

Is tawk.to really free or are there hidden costs?

The software is free, but tawk.to monetizes through hired agents ($1/hr), video/voice add-ons, and branding removal ($19/mo). The real cost is the human time required — every chat needs an agent. Corebee's AI eliminates 86% of that labor.
