Limitations & Considerations
⚠️ Pricing Opacity – No public pricing creates evaluation friction
⚠️ HIPAA & PCI DSS Unverified – Conflicting claims require verification
⚠️ Documentation Limitations – Basic API docs (3/5, 2/5, 1/5), no SDKs
⚠️ Small Team (14 employees) – Limited capacity vs. enterprise competitors
⚠️ Platform Lock-In – Requires existing helpdesk (Zendesk/Intercom/Salesforce)
✅ Best For – Enterprise B2C high-volume prioritizing 97-98% accuracy, 60-day commitment
⚠️ NO Built-In RAG – Entire retrieval infrastructure must be built by developers⚠️ Developer-Only – Requires coding expertise; no no-code interface for non-technical teams⚠️ Rate Limits – Usage tiers start restrictive (Tier 1: 500 RPM GPT-4)⚠️ Model Lock-In – Cannot use Claude, Gemini; tied to OpenAI ecosystem⚠️ NO Chat UI – ChatGPT web interface not embeddable or customizable for business⚠️ Cost at Scale – Token pricing can spike without optimization; needs cost management
Managed service – Less control over RAG pipeline vs build-your-ownModel selection – OpenAI + Anthropic only; no Cohere, AI21, open-sourceReal-time data – Requires re-indexing; not ideal for live inventory/pricesEnterprise features – Custom SSO only on Enterprise plan
