Freshchat charges per agent: Growth costs US$23 an agent a month billed monthly or US$19 billed annually, Pro US$59 or US$49, and Enterprise US$95 or US$79; Freshworks advertises a 20% saving for annual billing. The pricing page's default view shows only the annual prices; the monthly figures come from the data embedded in the same page. A team of 2, 5 or 10 agents fits the Free plan on seat count alone, but because Freshworks documents no conversation allowance for Free, the worked examples also show what Growth would cost: two, five or ten times the Growth price. AI is on top of the seat price, in session packs, and so are day passes for temporary agents (US$2 a day on Growth). The per-seat vs per-workspace guide explains how this model scales against flat-priced tools.

What it costs at 2, 5 and 10 seats

The cheapest published route on Freshchat for three team sizes, from list prices. It is the same arithmetic as the free-plan audit tool; your bill may differ.

Product2 seats · 100 conversations a month5 seats · 500 conversations a month10 seats · 2,000 conversations a month
FreshchatFree (Free) if the undocumented conversations limit allows; otherwise US$46 a month (Growth)Free (Free) if the undocumented conversations limit allows; otherwise US$115 a month (Growth)Free (Free) if the undocumented conversations limit allows; otherwise US$230 a month (Growth)
List prices in the vendor's own currency, billed monthly where the vendor offers it, otherwise the annual-billing rate. AI usage, taxes and discounts are not included.

The arithmetic treats the Free plan as fitting on seat count while flagging its undocumented conversation limit, and prices the paid route at Growth's monthly rate of US$23 an agent without any Freddy session packs.

Freshchat's Free plan documents up to 10 agents, a chat widget for websites and mobile apps, a shared inbox, a connected email address, roles and permissions, and 100 campaign contacts a month. It stops at several points: the Freshworks branding cannot be removed, there is no Freddy AI Agent and no complimentary sessions, and social messengers, SMS, WhatsApp, and reporting and dashboards start at Growth. Freshworks does not state a monthly conversation cap or how long chat history is kept on Free; its pricing page is silent on both, which is not the same as "unlimited". The branding article dates from December 2022 and the current pricing page does not mention branding at all. The 14-day trial opens on the Enterprise plan with no credit card required.

How the AI is billed

Freshworks bills Freddy AI Agent per session, sold in packs of 100 sessions for US$49, which works out at US$0.49 a session; the pack price is the same on monthly and annual billing. Freshworks' sessions FAQ defines a session as all interactions between one end user and the Freddy AI Agent or a chatbot within a 24-hour window, so it is billed whether or not the issue is resolved. The catches are written into the same FAQ: rule-based chatbot flows use the same session pool as the AI agent, previewing a bot while you build it consumes sessions, unused sessions expire at the end of the billing cycle without carry-over, and packs renew each cycle unless you reduce them. Growth, Pro and Enterprise accounts get 500 complimentary sessions once, and they are removed the moment you buy a pack. Freddy AI Copilot, the agent-assist tool, is separate: US$29 an agent a month billed annually or US$35 monthly, on Pro and Enterprise only. Freshworks claims its AI agents deflect up to 86% of customer requests; that is a marketing figure. Compare billing units in our guide to how vendors bill for AI. Source
