All of customer support,on every plan.
miniDesk costs one flat price per workspace: Free, then Starter at $39, Growth at $99 and Scale at $349 a month. Every feature is on every plan. Plans differ by AI volume and the seats they include, nothing is billed per seat or per AI resolution, and the free plan runs the same software as the paid ones.

The same month, three real teams.
Conversations are unlimited on every paid plan, so the only number left to compare is how many of them the AI answers.

Yes, but all my data is on
another helpdesk tool
Our migration tool brings your conversations and contacts across, with their original dates. It runs alongside your current helpdesk, not instead of it.
Straight answers.
Anything we missed, ask below. The assistant at the end of this page runs on miniDesk.
No. It holds the full product and it does not expire. Paying buys you a bigger quota, more seats, and the removal of our branding from the live chat. Nothing you build on the free plan needs to be rebuilt when you upgrade.
One customer getting help. It does not matter how many messages that takes or which channel it arrives on. A thread that runs for a week is still one conversation.
Once the AI allowance is used up, the AI pauses (no drafts, no automatic replies, no sorting and no translation) until it resets on your billing date, or until you move up a plan. Conversations keep arriving and your team keeps answering them: no plan caps conversations, and reading, searching and internal notes are untouched. No overage charge appears on the invoice.
Only if you turn it on, and only when it is confident and grounded in your own content. Every automated reply is recorded in the log, and any teammate can switch all of them off at once.
No. Your content is used to answer your customers. Nothing else.
Each site gets its own workspace: its own inbox, team, quota, and plan. You log in once and switch between them. One payment method covers them all.
One price. All of customer support.
Start free, no card. When you upgrade, every feature is included, rather than a starting point with a list of add-ons to buy.
