Instant Answers

Paste in your website URL or upload a few documents, and Instant Answers will turn that material into a chatbot that answers questions from it.

That is the core of this AI chatbot builder: you train and customize a bot on your own data rather than a generic model's knowledge.

It sits in the AI customer service and no-code space, so no programming is needed to get a first bot running.

The free plan costs $0 and gives you 20 message credits, one chatbot, up to 500,000 characters of data and access to GPT-3 and Claude 3 Haiku.

That is enough to test the idea, not to run a busy support page.

Paid plans start at $16 a month for 3,000 credits and three chatbots, then rise through $41, $83 and $291 for Enterprise, which has 30,000 credits and 30 chatbots.

API access and Claude 3 Opus and Sonnet begin at the $41 tier.

The $83 Pro plan adds removal of the 'Powered by' branding, contact collection from users and evidence for chatbot answers.

Instant Answers puts the branding removal behind a fairly high price.
