Usage Plans

The platform offers plans based on the Pay-as-you-go model. You can pay only for what you use in these plans and can purchase additional usage sessions by reloading your account. The Pay-as-you-go model is comprised of these plans:

  • Free Plan
  • Standard Plan
  • Enterprise Plan
  • You can choose the plan of your preference while publishing your assistant. Here are the available Usage Plans for publishing your virtual assistants:

    • The Free Plan and Standard Plan are available only in the global cloud instance (https://bots.kore.ai/)
    • The Enterprise Plan is available in all the global as well as the regional (EU and JP) instances
    • If you have an Enterprise Account, then the virtual assistants in your account are automatically assigned with an Enterprise Plan. 
    Free Plan Standard Plan Enterprise Plan
    Ideal if you are learning the platform or if you are conducting proof of concepts for your organization.  This is a pay-as-you-go plan and it is recommended if you are planning to launch for the actual end-users.  Suitable for organizations with high volumes and enterprise administration needs.
