AgenBase vs CustomGPT.ai: which is right for your website?

Last updated

The short answer

  • CustomGPT.ai starts at $99 a month (or $89 billed yearly) for 1,000 queries. AgenBase Pro is $29 a month for 1,500 messages, and there is a free plan.
  • CustomGPT.ai is built for large knowledge bases: up to 60 million words of storage, 5,000 documents per agent, many data connectors and an API.
  • Removing CustomGPT.ai branding needs the $499 Premium plan. AgenBase removes its badge on every paid plan, and includes lead capture and bookings.
  • For a business website with ordinary content, AgenBase costs a fraction. For very large document collections and API use, CustomGPT.ai is the stronger tool.
