One credit is one simple AI action, like triaging, summarizing or translating a conversation. More involved work, like investigating across tools or resolving a conversation end to end, uses more. Credits are pooled across your whole team. See how AI credits work →
How many credits will we need?
Plans include enough credits for most teams. A team handling about 1,000 conversations a month, with AI on all of them, fits comfortably inside Team. On a demo we size it from your own volume, and usage alerts let you know well before you reach your limit.
What happens if we use more credits than our plan includes?
On Starter and Team, AI pauses at your limit and you can top up in the app or move up a plan. On Pro and Growth, you choose: set a hard cap, or go over at a rate agreed when you sign up. Usage alerts let you know well before you get there.
What is a view-only seat?
View-only seats let teammates read conversations, follow customers and leave internal notes without answering tickets. Team, Pro, Growth and Enterprise include unlimited view-only seats. On Starter, everyone who logs in needs a seat.
Can we add seats?
Yes. Starter covers up to 3 seats. Team includes 5 and extra seats are $99 a month each. Pro includes 5 and Growth 10, with extra seats at $150 a month each.
Do we need an annual contract?
No. Starter, Team, Pro and Growth bill monthly, and you can switch to annual billing for 2 months free. Enterprise is billed annually.
Can we use Helply without AI?
Yes. Every plan is a complete help desk on its own, and AI only uses credits when it does something. Turn it on when you are ready.
How do Background agents use credits?
Background agents watch your customer accounts rather than individual conversations, so they use credits for each active customer account they follow and for each report or alert they send.
What never costs credits?
Your help desk with AI turned off, spam, notifications and auto-replies, handoffs to a person after an AI attempt, and testing in the Playground.
We use Groove today. What happens to our price?
Your price is locked. We have new pricing, but we will never move your price. When you move to Helply, you get everything with unlimited users and no price increase.
Can Helply help us migrate?
Team includes free migration and an onboarding call. Pro and Growth add a customer success manager and white-glove migration. Enterprise adds a forward-deployed engineer and phased migration.
Is Helply secure?
Every plan includes SOC 2 Type II and GDPR. Growth adds SSO / SAML. Enterprise adds SCIM, data retention controls, a sandbox and a security review.
