How much does LayBuild AI cost compared with Tidio?

LayBuild AI is ₹1,499, ₹3,999 or ₹9,999 a month (Starter, Pro, Premium), with 5, 15 or up to 100 team seats included and no fee per AI answer or resolution. Annual billing brings that to ₹1,199, ₹3,199 or ₹7,999 a month. Tidio sets its own prices and changes them, so compare against its current pricing page for the same number of conversations and seats.

What happens when LayBuild AI does not know the answer?

If nothing in your content matches the question, the model is not called and the customer gets a fixed reply saying the answer is not in the knowledge base. A second check replaces any answer whose words mostly do not appear in your sources. Your team can then take the chat over from the dashboard.

How long does it take to move from Tidio to LayBuild AI?

Most of the work is content, not setup. Export your help articles or FAQs, upload them as files or list their URLs, add the widget script to your site, and connect WhatsApp if you use it. LayBuild fetches each listed URL once and does not crawl, so list every page you want it to answer from.

Switching from Tidio?When it makes sense.

Switch to LayBuild if

You want the AI to answer from PDFs, DOCX, spreadsheets and listed pages, not only FAQs.
You want one flat plan covering the AI, the inbox and your team seats.
You serve customers in India and want INR billing.

Stay with Tidio if

You need Messenger, Instagram or email in the same inbox. LayBuild has web chat, WhatsApp and an API only.
You run an online store and want the chatbot to read orders from your store platform out of the box. LayBuild needs an API tool you configure.
You need SSO or SAML login for your team. LayBuild does not offer it.
Your buyers require SOC 2, HIPAA or ISO 27001 certification. LayBuild has none of these.
