The objection

“I’d just be swapping Front’s bot for yours.”

You will not. Corebee answers the repetitive questions from your own help docs — and the moment a customer asks for a person, or the answer falls below its own confidence threshold, the conversation goes to your team with the full context attached.

Where Front is genuinely stronger is further down this page, in the rows our own comparison scores for them.

See it hand a conversation to a person
  • Ask for a person at any point

    The conversation hands over to your team with the whole thread attached.

  • The AI scores its own certainty

    Every answer carries a confidence value. Below your threshold it escalates instead of guessing.

  • You set what it can and cannot say

    Answers are grounded in your verified help docs and the rules you write for them.

It scores every answer, and it stops when the score drops.

The percentage on each reply is the model’s own confidence in what it just said. Under your threshold it does not guess — it hands the conversation to a person, with the thread intact.

Handoff threshold on this account: 60%

  1. CustomerWeb chat09:41

    I ordered the wrong size and it already shipped. Can I swap it before it arrives?

  2. Corebee AI96% confidence09:41

    Yes — a size swap can be started while the parcel is still in transit. I’ve opened the exchange form for order #10428 with the item pre-filled, and nothing is charged until the original is scanned back in.

  3. Corebee AI71% confidence09:42

    Redirecting to a different address is usually possible while the parcel is at the local depot. Your standard-shipping policy covers that; for express it doesn’t state a cut-off, so I’m answering only the part I can source.

  4. Handed to your teamEscalated42% confidence09:43

    This one asks for a refund outside the published return window, and I can’t find that decision written down anywhere.

    Below the handoff threshold — passed to a person with the full thread, the order, and the sources checked.

Common Front pain points

What teams tell us when they leave Front, and the one thing that changes on each.

  1. Email-Centric Design

    Front is built around email and shared inboxes. Not designed for modern AI-first customer support.

    With Corebee: AI-First, Not Email-First. Front manages conversations. Corebee resolves them — 86% automatically with AI before they reach your team.

  2. AI as Add-On

    Front's AI features are add-ons, not core. You pay extra for capabilities that should be built in.

    With Corebee: No Per-Seat Costs. Front charges per seat. Corebee Pro is a flat monthly price for your entire team.

  3. Per-Seat Pricing

    $19-$99 per seat per month. Enterprise features like AI require the highest tiers.

    With Corebee: Support-Purpose Built. Front is a general communication hub. Corebee is specifically designed for customer support with AI at its core.

$500/ month

Corebee is $99/month flat. That is $401 a month you keep — $4,812 a year.

That $500 is your figure. The $99 is the only number we fill in.

Pricing

$99/mo for Pro

Front bills $495+/month; Corebee starts free, and Pro is one monthly price for every channel, every conversation and every seat. No per-resolution fee, no per-agent fee.

Shared inbox

The same conversation, filed

What your team opens afterwards — including the thread the customer asked to hand to a person, and who each one ended with.

Where Front still wins

The table above scores email management and team collaboration for Front.

If those decide how your team works, keep Front. We would rather say it here than after you have moved.

Proof

What we will not claim

  • No customer count.

    We do not publish how many companies use Corebee. We are early, and a number chosen to sound larger than it is would be the only thing you remembered.

  • No badge wall.

    No award graphics, no review-site medals, no borrowed logos anywhere on this page.

Everything we will put a number on is on the right.
