GoHighLevel is the default stack for many marketing agencies, and its chatbot is one part of a larger client package. Conversation AI answers questions, qualifies leads, books appointments and hands off to a person across SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Instagram Direct Messages, inside the same CRM that runs pipelines, funnels, email and reviews. Agency Starter at $97 a month covers 3 sub-accounts, which suits a new agency testing the model. Unlimited at $297 a month removes the sub-account cap and adds the white-label desktop app, basic API access and pass-through billing, and Founder at $497 a month adds SaaS mode, where clients sign up for your own branded subscription. The AI pieces cost extra: AI Employee plans run $20, $50 or $97 a month per sub-account, and usage charges apply to Conversation AI and Voice AI. Agencies that only want a website bot will pay for a lot of unused software.
