A SiteGPT alternative with a team inbox on every plan

SiteGPT builds an AI chatbot from your website and counts messages, with a live inbox for your team from its Growth plan. SupportVia also answers from your own pages, and every plan includes the shared inbox where your team takes over in one click, with a note on what the customer needs. Plans count AI conversations, from $29 a month with 2 teammates.

Your team behind the bot, on every plan

SiteGPT’s pricing page lists its live inbox from the Growth plan, where a teammate takes over from the AI. On SupportVia, Starter at $29 a month already has the shared inbox, with 2 teammates. Four things send a chat to it:

  • The customer asks for a person, at any time.
  • Nothing you’ve written covers the question, so the AI says it isn’t sure and offers your team.
  • The AI decides a person should take it, and leaves a note on what the customer needs.
  • An error or a timeout: the customer gets an apology and the chat goes to people.

Messages or conversations

SiteGPT counts messages, and a message from its larger model counts as ten. SupportVia counts an AI conversation once, when the AI first replies, for up to 30 of its replies. Chats your team answers aren’t counted.

At $79 a month (SiteGPT billed yearly), SiteGPT’s allowance is larger in raw numbers: 10,000 messages on Growth against 500 AI conversations on SupportVia Growth. If your customers ask a lot and rarely need a person, that matters. If they often need your team, the inbox on every plan matters more.

Answers you can check

  • The AI must take prices, policies, dates and contact details from your website, Q&As and notes.
  • Up to five “Read more” links under an answer, to the pages it used.
  • When two of your pages disagree, it says the information differs instead of picking one.
  • Once a teammate replies, the AI stops; a reply it was still writing is dropped, until you hand the chat back.

“Not covered by the pages we checked” means the vendor’s pages we read didn’t say, not that it can’t. Our guide to chatbots that give wrong answers sets out the rules behind SupportVia’s column.

How to switch from SiteGPT

  1. Start free and add your website. Check the import preview: what it kept, what it left out, and the logo and color it found.
  2. Ask the questions your customers ask in the playground. Nothing there is stored or counted. Add Q&As and notes for anything missing.
  3. Remove the SiteGPT embed code from your site and paste SupportVia’s one line in its place.

The install guides have the exact steps for WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow and any other website. Your SiteGPT history stays with SiteGPT: SupportVia doesn’t import chats from other tools.

Choose SiteGPT if

  • You want a large message allowance and rarely need a person to step in.
  • Your team wants an iOS app for the live inbox.
  • You want a handover into Zendesk, or webhooks, which SiteGPT lists on Scale.

Other SiteGPT alternatives

Other tools on this list that SiteGPT’s buyers often look at, as of October 2026. Each page has the figures and sources.

  • Chatbase: A bot built from your content, with a helpdesk from Basic.
  • Tidio: Live chat and an AI agent in one tool, with a free plan.
  • LiveChat: Live chat priced per seat, with AI resolutions in each plan.

What SupportVia doesn’t do

  • No channels beyond the chat on your website: no WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, SMS or email.
  • No mobile app for your team. The inbox runs in the browser, with desktop alerts and the waiting count in the tab.
  • No ticketing, tags, canned replies or assignment rules.
  • No actions: the AI answers and hands over. It doesn’t book, refund or look up orders.
  • No handover into Zendesk or another helpdesk, and no webhooks: chats go to SupportVia’s own inbox.
  • No PDF or file uploads: knowledge is your website’s pages, Q&As and notes.
