Switching from Botpress
The Botpress alternative for client assistants you can put live in minutes
Botpress is a capable builder with a visual flow studio; its Plus plan is $150/month billed annually with 250 conversations and $25 of AI usage included.

Why teams switch
Live the same day
Paste the client's website; Rylvo reads the pages, writes the assistant's instructions, and adds guardrails and lead capture. Copy one line of code onto the site.
No per-conversation meter
Busy months don't trigger conversation packs. Model usage is billed by your provider at cost — about $0.002 a typical answer on GPT-4.1 mini.
Leads without building a flow
Lead capture and owner email alerts come with every website assistant.
What every Rylvo assistant comes with
Website → assistant in a minute
Paste a URL; Rylvo reads the pages and builds an assistant that answers from them. No API key needed to start.
Lead alerts
When a visitor leaves an email or phone number, the owner gets an email with what they asked, and the lead lands on the Leads page.
Guardrails
Personal data is redacted, promises the business never made are blocked, and a request for a person hands off straight away.
Human takeover
Operators can pause the assistant and reply in the conversation themselves (Pro).
Test before it goes live
Separate Test and Production, with test suites and releases, so a change is checked before customers see it.
A trace behind every answer
See the passages it used, the rules it applied, the tools it called and what the answer cost.
When Botpress is the better choice
- You need a visual flow builder for complex, branching conversation design.
- Your team is already productive in Botpress Studio.
Questions
- Does Rylvo have flows?
- Yes — Flows let you require fields and restrict tools at each step. They're optional: a website assistant works without one.
- Which channels are supported?
- Website widget, WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Instagram, SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, LINE and email. You connect each with your own accounts.
