Comparison
FluxChat vs Chatbase
A polished, hosted-only chatbot builder
Chatbase is a no-code SaaS chatbot builder: upload files or a site URL, train a bot, embed it. It's fast to set up, but the automation logic lives entirely inside Chatbase's platform, and usage is metered in message credits that vary by which model answers.
| FluxChat | Chatbase | |
|---|---|---|
| Automation logic | A visual n8n workflow you can open, edit, and version yourself | Closed platform logic — configured through their UI only |
| Self-hosting | n8n backend can be self-hosted; you control where data lives | Hosted only, on Chatbase's infrastructure |
| Pricing model | You bring your own LLM key — no per-message credit metering by FluxChat | Tiered plans with monthly message-credit limits that vary by model used |
| E-commerce integrations | Native Shopify & WooCommerce product, order, and image-search sub-agents | General-purpose file/URL training, e-commerce via generic API actions |
| Install surfaces | Flutter SDK, script embed, and a WordPress plugin | Script embed and API |
Why teams pick FluxChat instead
- You can open the n8n workflow and see exactly what the agent will do, instead of trusting a black-box UI.
- No monthly message-credit ceiling to plan around — your cost scales with your own LLM usage, not FluxChat's billing tiers.
- Purpose-built Shopify/WooCommerce sub-agents for product and order questions, not generic file training.
