Botpress tightens billing rules, swaps AI overage for $10 credit grants
What happened
Between the Aug 17, 2026 and Aug 24, 2026 captures of Botpress's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Conversation billing definition tightened (spam clause dropped, voice-call rule added). AI-spend overage renamed to a $10 credit-grant system, and same-pricing FAQ now covers Botpress Viber and ADK too. Pulse files it as a packaging change (metric change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Sep 28, 2026) lists Plus at $150 and Team at $750.
It lands 77 days after Botpress's previous change, "Botpress triples free plan seats from 1 to 3 for all users" (Jun 8, 2026). Botpress has been tracked since 2024-10-01.
In the same window Microsoft, IBM, Drift, Zendesk and Intercom also changed their AI & Machine Learning pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
