IN DETAIL

When each alternative makes sense.

Traditional chatbot (rules)

WORTH IT IF YOUR VOLUME IS VERY LOW

Decision-tree bots (button menus) answer the 10 questions you program into them and nothing else. If your business gets few queries and they are all predictable, they are cheap and good enough. The moment a customer types something off-script, they get stuck.

CHOOSE IFYou get <30 queries/month and they are always the same.
AVOID IFYour customer wants to chat, not navigate menus.

WORTH IT IF YOU HAVE A FULL-TIME TECHNICAL TEAM

You connect a model (GPT, Claude) to your site with your own code. It works, but you have to build and maintain: content ingestion, RAG, forms, dashboard, multilingual support, GDPR compliance, retention, alerts, billing. It is a project, not a product.

CHOOSE IFAn engineering team with time to maintain it.
AVOID IFYou want to launch this month, not this quarter.

WORTH IT IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN 50 EMPLOYEES

Customer support suites with AI bolted on. Very powerful for enterprise flows (CRM, helpdesk, workflows), with enterprise pricing (from €300 to €1000+/month/agent). Weeks of setup and onboarding with a dedicated account. Excellent if you will really use it.

CHOOSE IFYour support team is 5+ people and you need SLAs.
AVOID IFYou are a small business of 1-20 people with a lean support team.

AI agent platforms (Chatbase, Tidio…)

WORTH IT IF YOU SELL GLOBALLY IN ENGLISH

Horizontal AI-agent platforms — powerful, but built for a global, English-first market. They usually charge per "message credit" that runs out during traffic spikes and inflates your bill at month-end, and support is ticket-based. Great for international technical teams; less so for a small Spanish business that wants clear pricing and a real person to call.

CHOOSE IFYou sell in English at global scale and have someone to manage it.
AVOID IFYou are a small business and want flat pricing + human support in Spanish.
CHATME FITS IF…

You are a small business and want to launch in an afternoon.

ChatME is designed for the range between the rule-based chatbot (too basic) and the enterprise suite (too expensive and complex). If you see yourself in any of these points, we are a good fit.

WHY CHATME

What you won't find in the fine print.

Flat pricing, no surprises

One fixed monthly fee. No "credits" that run out mid-month and no bills that spike when you get a traffic surge. You know exactly what you pay.

Human support, in Spanish

You talk to real people at Rebeldes Online, not a ticket that takes days. We help you set it up and get the most out of it — in your language, at your pace.

Your data, in the EU

European hosting and GDPR compliance by default. Your data never crosses the Atlantic or trains third-party models.
