Botpress - Pros & Cons
Pros

- ✓No LLM markup: AI usage billed at provider cost, so you control spend directly
- ✓Open-source codebase means you can self-host and customize without vendor lock-in
- ✓Visual flow builder handles conditional logic, loops, and API calls without code
- ✓Multi-channel deploy covers web, WhatsApp, Slack, Messenger, Teams, and Discord from one bot
- ✓Knowledge base accepts images, charts, and PDFs, not just text
Cons
- ✗Usage-based pricing adds up: messages, table rows, bots, and always-alive each cost extra beyond plan limits
- ✗Advanced integrations and custom logic require JavaScript, so non-technical teams will hit walls
- ✗Self-hosted deployments need you to manage infrastructure, updates, and scaling yourself
- ✗Free tier limits you to 1 bot and 500 messages/month, which runs out fast in production
- ✗Chat quality depends on which LLM you connect, and Botpress doesn't fine-tune or optimize model output
