The Tidio alternative that sells from your catalog, priced in one plan.
Tidio pairs live chat and ticketing with Lyro, an AI agent sold as a separate add-on from $39 a month for 50 conversations. Agentmatica is the sales and support agent for owner-led stores, with AI replies included in the plan. It answers from your pages and catalog, recommends what fits, and on Shopify and WooCommerce builds the cart. You can coach it privately or take over any chat. Free to start, $29 a month after that.
Choose Agentmatica if you want one agent on your website that recommends products, suggests add-ons from your own pairing rules, builds the cart, shows the page an answer came from, and lets you step in on any conversation, with 1,000 AI replies for $29 a month. Tidio is the better fit if you want live chat, ticketing, visual Flows and an AI agent across your website, Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp, and you're happy to buy the chat plan and the Lyro quota separately.

Selling with your own rules
Agentmatica shows products from your live catalog as cards, can suggest one complementary item on product pages, and on Shopify and WooCommerce adds the right variant to the cart and hands over a checkout link. You tell it what goes with what, and your free-shipping line, in Sales notes, written as plain sentences. It doesn't send discount codes or run abandoned-cart campaigns.
Lyro recommends products as cards from your synced catalog, compares them, suggests alternatives and complementary items, and on Shopify adds to cart. Tidio's Flows add discount codes and abandoned-cart messages. Recommendations need a paid Lyro quota.
One plan price vs. a chat plan plus an AI add-on
Agentmatica's plans include the AI replies: 1,000 on Starter for $29, 3,000 on Growth for $79. Extra replies are $5 per 100 and capped at your plan price, with no per-seat charge. A reply and a Tidio conversation aren't the same unit, so compare against your own chat volume.
Tidio bills human conversations on the chat plan and AI conversations on the Lyro add-on. A Starter store that wants AI all month pays $29 plus at least $39 for 50 Lyro conversations.
Answers the shopper can check
When Agentmatica answers from a crawled page, the shopper sees a link to that page under the reply. When the answer isn't on file it says so and offers a person. Answers from uploads, snippets and trained corrections don't carry a link.
Lyro answers from your support content and forwards questions it can't answer to a person. We couldn't find a per-answer source link shown to the visitor at time of writing.
Coaching a live conversation
In Agentmatica you can open a conversation, give the agent a private instruction the shopper never sees, take over with the agent paused, and hand it back. Handoffs reach you in Slack, Telegram, email, Zendesk or the dashboard. It works on the website only.
Tidio gives your team handoff and escalation rules, a shared inbox and ticketing, plus channels beyond the website: Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp and email.
Switch to Agentmatica if…
Owner-led Shopify and WooCommerce stores that want product recommendations, add-ons and an in-chat cart on their website, AI replies included in one plan price, answers the shopper can check, and the option to coach or take over any chat.
Common reasons people switch: you pay twice for ai: a chat plan billed on conversations, then a lyro add-on billed on ai conversations; lyro's paid quota starts at 50 ai conversations a month for $39, where agentmatica includes 1,000 replies for $29; you want the shopper to see the page an answer came from; you want to write pairing rules and your free-shipping line in plain sentences and have the agent use them; you'd like to coach the agent privately inside a live conversation, take over, and hand it back.
Stick with Tidio if…
Stores that want live chat, ticketing, Flows and an AI agent across the website and social messaging in one tool, and that are comfortable buying AI conversations as a separate add-on.
Where Tidio shines: Lyro recommends products as cards from a synced Shopify, WooCommerce, product feed or API catalog, and on Shopify adds to cart in the chat; One inbox for the website chat, Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp and email, with ticketing on every plan; Visual Flows for proactive messages, discount codes and abandoned-cart recovery; Shopify order actions from the inbox (cancel, refund, change shipping address), with native Shopify actions from the Growth plan.

Does Tidio recommend products like Agentmatica?
Yes. With a paid Lyro quota, Lyro recommends products as cards from your Shopify, WooCommerce, product feed or API catalog, and on Shopify shoppers can add to cart in the chat. Agentmatica does the same on your website for Shopify and WooCommerce, adds a checkout link, and follows the pairing rules you write in Sales notes.
Does Tidio show the source of Lyro's answers?
We couldn't find a per-answer source link in Tidio's public pages at time of writing. Agentmatica shows the page an answer came from under the reply whenever the answer comes from a crawled page. Answers from uploaded files, snippets or trained corrections don't carry a link.
Can Agentmatica replace Tidio's Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp inbox?
No. Agentmatica works in the chat on your website and has no Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp, email or SMS channel, no ticketing, and no discount codes or abandoned-cart flows. If those channels matter most, Tidio covers them better.
How long does it take to move from Tidio?
There's nothing to migrate. Paste your site URL, let it index, try the questions that matter in your dashboard, then add the script tag, Shopify theme block or WordPress plugin. You can keep Tidio on social channels while Agentmatica handles the website chat.
