Why Choose Kya Over HubSpot Chat

Key advantages that make Kya the better choice

Real AI, Not Rules

Kya's AI understands and responds to any question. HubSpot chat uses simple if-then rules.

Affordable Full Features

Kya's paid plans start at $29/month. HubSpot's advanced features require $890+/month Marketing Hub.

No Ecosystem Lock-in

Kya works great standalone. HubSpot chat is designed to push you into their expensive CRM suite.

AI That Learns

Kya reads your website and knows your business. HubSpot requires manual setup of every chatbot flow.
