Chattypeople
Best overallFor non-technical small business owners who need a simple chatbot on Facebook Messenger, Chattypeople wins on ease and price. BotXO is far more powerful for enterprises needing deep integrations and multilingual support, but its €500/month starting price and technical complexity make it overkill for most everyday users. The single biggest difference is price and platform: Chattypeople is cheap and Facebook-only, while BotXO is expensive but works across web, WhatsApp, and Messenger.

Common questions
No, for a small online store Chattypeople is better because it's cheaper, easier to set up, and lets customers pay directly in Facebook Messenger. BotXO is overkill and too expensive for a small shop.
Neither tool has a mobile app for building or managing your chatbot. You can only manage them from a desktop web browser. Customers can chat with the bots on their phones, but you can't tweak settings from your phone.
Chattypeople is much easier. You just connect your Facebook page, pick a template, and add some keywords. BotXO requires domain verification, NLU training, and technical steps that assume some experience.
Only BotXO supports WhatsApp deployment. Chattypeople is limited to Facebook Messenger. If you need WhatsApp, choose BotXO.
BotXO is significantly better for non-English languages because its NLU is trained for high accuracy in multiple languages. Chattypeople requires you to manually add keywords for each language, which is tedious and less reliable.
Yes, Chattypeople does not publish clear pricing on its website. You have to contact them for a quote. This makes it hard to compare upfront, but user reports suggest it's more affordable than BotXO's €500/month.
Chattypeople wins for everyday users on price and simplicity; BotXO wins for businesses that need advanced multilingual automation and can afford €500/month.
If you're a regular person running a small business and just want a chatbot on Facebook without headaches, go with Chattypeople — it's cheap and easy. But if you need serious multilingual support, website + WhatsApp coverage, and have the budget and a tech-savvy teammate, BotXO is the powerful choice.
