Why does it matter for agencies?
Botsonic resolves a claimed 70% of support queries and connects to Zendesk, Freshdesk, WhatsApp, Messenger, Slack, and Zapier, which makes it easy to sell as a managed support retainer. The economics turn on two numbers: the Professional tier at $49/month covers 2 chatbots and 3,000 messages, while removing Botsonic branding costs a $49/month add-on per chatbot, so a five-client book can carry $245/month in pure white-label fees before any delivery labor. Agencies that price the retainer without that line item watch margin erode quietly.
