Botpress requires a developer. xFlow doesn't.
Botpress is an excellent open-source chatbot platform — if you have a developer to build and maintain it. xFlow builds a custom AI agent trained on your own content, deploys it on your site, and hands it over ready to use. One fixed price, no engineering team required.

Common questions

That's the most common reason businesses come to us. Botpress's power is also its complexity — without a developer maintaining it, bots often stall in setup. xFlow handles the full build so you don't need one.
