Ayudo does not let you try it alone. No free tier is shown and every plan starts from a demo, so setup involves sales. Costs have two layers: seats (AI Agent with Ayudo helpdesk is $99 per seat per month, Starter $119, Professional $179) and usage of $0.40 per ticket and $0.05 per voice minute. Bringing your own helpdesk instead is priced at $0.4 per ticket. Enterprise is on request. Prices checked on 2026-10-02.
Microsoft Copilot is a general assistant tied to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams, with a free tier; the listed starting price is Microsoft 365 Personal at $9.99 per month for one person. ChatGPT has a free tier and Plus at $20 per month. Neither is described in our data as a text-and-voice customer support agent with ticket workflows, so they fit internal drafting and research better than replacing a support desk.
"Better suited" below is based on documented features and pricing from our verified profiles, not on a head-to-head test. Prices are USD as published by each vendor.
