Tips: how to compare correctly
7 tips
Avoid
- Treating task, credit, execution and conversation as the same unit
- Assuming the platform plan pays for the LLM
- Forgetting a 20-30% reserve for re-runs
Where to start
- Runs-based: n8n
- Credit-per-module: Make
- Agents on integrations: Zapier Agents, Lindy
- Conversations: Botpress, Voiceflow, Copilot Studio
Frequently asked questions
How do you calculate the cost of ai agents & automation?
We take your workload, convert it into the unit each plan actually counts (seconds, credits, channels, runs, conversations, characters), check the included quota and hard limits, add known overage packs and list external costs we cannot price. Unknown prices are never shown as zero.
Why are some totals marked "at least" or "incomplete"?
Because part of the cost is unknown: a price on request, a price that needs re-checking, or external costs such as hosting, model API usage or telephony. We show the known part and name what is missing.
Can I compare credits between different services?
No. Credits of different vendors are different units. We only compare the total cost of the same workload.
