Trigglio vs Chatbase

Chatbase lets you build AI chatbots trained on your data. Good chatbot, but it's chatbot-only — no forms, no knowledge base. Plans run from Free to $500/mo with per-message credits. Trigglio adds conversational forms and knowledge bases at lower price points.

What makes Trigglio different

More than just a chatbot

Chatbase is a chatbot builder. Trigglio is a chatbot + form builder + knowledge base platform. One tool instead of three.

Conversations, not messages

Chatbase counts individual messages (one visitor chat = many messages). Trigglio counts conversations — a full chat session is one conversation regardless of message count. Better value at scale.

Public knowledge bases (Minds)

Create shareable, conversational knowledge bases your customers can search. Chatbase doesn't offer this — it's chatbot-only.

FAQ

Common questions

How is Trigglio different from Chatbase?
Chatbase is a chatbot builder — it does one thing well. Trigglio is a chatbot + conversational form builder + knowledge base (Minds) platform. If you just need a chatbot, they're comparable. If you also need forms and public knowledge bases, Trigglio does it all in one tool.
Which has better AI?
Chatbase offers more AI model choices (GPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.). Trigglio uses OpenAI and Groq with a focus on accuracy and zero hallucinations. Both are trained on your content. Trigglio's key difference is the Minds feature — public, shareable knowledge bases.
How does the pricing compare?
Chatbase uses per-message credits (a single chat session uses many messages). Trigglio uses per-conversation pricing (one chat session = one conversation). At similar price points, Trigglio typically offers more value plus forms and Minds included.
Does Chatbase have a real free tier?
Chatbase's free agents are deleted after 14 days of inactivity, making it function more like a trial. Trigglio's free tier is permanent — 50 conversations/month, no expiration.
