Cybergine vs Gorgias

The Gorgias alternative for small stores

Gorgias is a helpdesk built for high-volume retailers. Cybergine is a proactive AI assistant that resolves questions before they become tickets, at a price point small stores can actually afford.

Gorgias charges per ticket and is optimised for managing inbound support queues. Cybergine is built for a different job: answering product questions from your catalogue before a ticket is ever raised, starting with a Free storefront Web Widget and adding WhatsApp on paid plans.

Why merchants switch

Three reasons ecommerce merchants choose Cybergine.

Flat pricing, no per-ticket shock

Gorgias uses ticket-volume tiers with overage charges, so busy periods can move costs. Cybergine's flat fee means you know exactly what you'll pay, every month.

Proactive AI, not a reactive ticket queue

Gorgias organises tickets after customers complain. Cybergine answers questions before they escalate, reducing the support volume that reaches your inbox.

Add messaging channels when you need them

Start with storefront web chat on the Free plan. When you need WhatsApp or SMS, Essentials adds those paid channels without moving your assistant into a separate helpdesk project.
