Free AI chatbots: questions people ask

What is a free AI chatbot?

Two kinds of tool: chat assistants you talk to, which answer questions, write, explain and help with tasks, and products that build a chatbot for a business, which learn from your pages and answer customers on your site. On this page every tool also has a plan that costs nothing for as long as you like, read from its own pricing page.

How many AI chatbots have a free plan?

21 of the 45 AI chatbots RankDude lists, as of 1 November 2026. The full list, free or paid, is on the AI chatbots page.

What does the free plan usually limit?

Credits, outputs or projects per month, a watermark, lower resolution or fewer seats. The limits differ by tool; the pricing page each status was read from says exactly what the free plan includes.

Is this a ranking of free AI chatbots?

No. The list follows the site's one order: tools I have tested first, then the rest by how well known they are. Only a tested tool carries a grade.
