Tidio pricing in 2026: what each plan really costs per billable conversation
Tidio sells three products by usage: customer service from $29 a month, the Lyro AI Agent from $39 and Flows from $29, and annual billing takes two months off each.
The short answer on Tidio pricing
- Price the conversation.
Tidio Starter is $29 a month for 100 billable conversations and Growth starts at $59 for 250, which is about $0.29 and $0.24 a conversation billed monthly (our arithmetic). - Buy the AI separately if you want it. The Lyro AI Agent starts at $39 a month for 50 AI conversations and Flows starts at $29 for 2,000 visitors reached; the customer service plans include only a one-off 50 Lyro conversations.
- Bill annually for two months free. The page toggle reads "Annually (2 months free)": Starter drops from $29 to $24.17 a month and Growth from $59 to $49.17.
- Start on the free tier. Free is $0, and the 7-day trial needs no credit card and falls back to Free if you do not upgrade.

Which Tidio plan should you choose?
Pick the lowest plan whose conversation quota covers your human-replied chats. The costly mistake is paying for Growth analytics and macros before your team is large enough to use them.
Tidio competes with other support desks. Nesyona compares AI support agents by ticket deflection, BagEngine covers Gorgias against Tidio for stores and has a full Tidio review.
Does Tidio have a free plan or a free trial?
Yes to both. The Free plan is $0 with 50 billable conversations, and the page says of the trial: "You don't need to provide us with your credit card information to access the free trial."
The 7-day trial opens every feature and plan, and the account then "will automatically be downgraded to the Free plan unless you upgrade your subscription to a paid option."
Is Tidio worth it, and what are the alternatives?
Tidio is worth it when chat volume is modest and the Lyro AI Agent can answer repeat questions, because only human-replied conversations count against the quota. Tidio says its customers average a 75% resolution rate with Lyro, which is the vendor's own figure and not an independent result.
Alternatives are Zendesk and Intercom, which price per seat or per resolution. If you chat with visitors in the EU, GDPR guidance explains the consent duties a chat widget and stored transcripts create.
