The Chatbase Alternative for Businesses That Want Outcomes, Not Just a Chat Widget
Chatbase ships a self-serve chatbot you point at your site. Boafo Agent ships an AI Employee that captures leads, books meetings, routes escalations and is trained, deployed and tuned by us, for a flat monthly fee.
Live in production with real customers. Trained on your business before launch.
What's getting in the way today
- Self-serve chatbots stop at answering questions and never capture the lead.
- Without booking, qualified visitors leave without action.
- Per-message metering punishes growth.
- Setup, prompt tuning and integrations are your problem on DIY platforms.
- There is no escalation path when the bot does not know the answer.
Boafo Agent vs Chatbase at a glance
Boafo Agent is a managed AI Employee, not a DIY chatbot kit. We train it on your website and services, brand it in your colours and voice, wire Google Calendar booking and lead routing, and tune it weekly on real conversations.
Pricing is flat from £99/month with unlimited conversations on standard plans, instead of per-message metering. Sales qualification, customer support, appointment booking and CRM routing are included, not paid add-ons.
Chatbase is a great fit for engineers who want a bring-your-own-data chatbot widget to ship themselves. Boafo Agent is the right fit for founders and operators who want a working AI Employee live in a week without owning the prompt engineering, deployment or upkeep.
If you already have an in-house team running Chatbase well and you just want a smarter widget, stay on Chatbase. If you want measurable outcomes (leads captured, meetings booked, tickets resolved) managed for you, Boafo Agent is built for that.

Where the ROI shows up
Self-serve chatbot platforms look cheap on the sticker, then quietly cost you engineering hours, tuning hours and missed lead capture. Boafo Agent is priced flat and managed, so the only cost is the monthly fee and the outcomes are measurable from week one.

Yes. Boafo replaces the chatbot-on-your-site use case with a fully managed AI Employee, plus lead capture, Google Calendar booking and human handoff included.
What is the main difference vs Chatbase?
Chatbase is a DIY chatbot platform. Boafo is a managed service: we train, deploy and tune the agent, and ship lead routing and booking out of the box.

We offer a 20-minute live demo trained on your real site before you commit.
How quickly can we switch?
Most teams are live in a week. We train it on your existing content and embed the branded widget on your site.
