Tidio or Masamenu.tr: chat for website visitors

With Masamenu.tr, your team replies from work chat without per-operator or per-conversation fees. Compare this workflow with Tidio; AI, telephony and external channels have separate terms.

Human team chat is free. AI costs extra; calls need your telephony setup and its tariff.

  • Human team chat is free
  • AI is off by default and costs extra
  • Conversations and contacts in your team admin

One job, two paths

A guest opens a product page and wants to check the delivery time. Here is what happens on each side — first through the guest's eyes, then through the owner's.

Through the guest's eyes

What the visitor sees and what answers them.

Vendor · Tidio

  • The guest can write from more than the website chat: email, Facebook Messenger, Instagram — both direct messages and comments — and WhatsApp are stated. Telegram is not named in the channel list on the features page captured on 1 September 2026. source · 2026-09-01
  • The Lyro AI agent can answer: the vendor describes it as answering only from its own knowledge base — "uses only your support knowledge to minimize hallucinations" — multilingual and able to ask clarifying questions. source · 2026-09-01
  • Scripted bots are a separate product, Flows, with a visual builder and triggers such as scroll percentage and handover to an operator. source · 2026-09-01
  • On 12 September 2026 the chat page FAQ gained the question "Will Tidio Live Chat affect my site performance?" answered with "No. Tidio is one of the lightest and fastest…" — a direct answer about widget weight that almost nobody else on this market gives. source · 2026-09-12

Us · Masamenu.tr

  • A guest writes from your page. A pre-chat contact form can be optional or required. Shadow DOM isolates window styles, but test compatibility with your website.
  • Staff reply by default. Enable AI separately for operator drafts or replies until human handoff. Automatic mode has a separate confirmation; AI costs extra.
  • Guest AI uses knowledge documents allowed for external audiences. Check replies and any connected tools.
  • Published help articles can open inside the chat window.
  • History may resume while guest keys remain in the browser. Clearing storage or using another device does not guarantee continuation of the same conversation.
  • Calls need configured telephony and microphone permission. The call engine loads on click; chat itself still uses network and device resources.

Through the owner's eyes

Who answers, what it costs, and what happens when volume grows.

Vendor · Tidio

  • The billing unit is a "billable conversation" — one a human replied to. Starter is $24.17 a month billed annually for 100 conversations, Growth from $49.17 for 250 and up, Plus from $300 plus usage. Starter and Growth include up to ten seats. source · 2026-09-01
  • The Lyro AI agent is sold separately — from $32.50 a month for 50 AI conversations; Flows is separate too — from $24.17 a month for 2,000 visitors. source · 2026-09-01
  • On 12 September 2026 the pricing page carries an interactive volume slider: conversations from 50 to 2,000+, AI conversations from 0 to 1,000+, Flows visitors from 100 to 100,000+. A Premium plan appeared with a "guaranteed 50% AI resolution", and the trial is 7 days. source · 2026-09-12
  • Operator apps are stated for the browser, macOS, Windows, iOS and Android; operator tooling includes macros, department routing, automatic ticket assignment and a live typing preview — seeing what the guest types before they send it. source · 2026-09-01

Us · Masamenu.tr

  • Human team chat is not billed by conversations or operator seats. Staff need the appropriate access rights; AI and telephony have separate payment terms.
  • A conversation from the site opens as its own channel in the team's work chat, and colleagues see the whole thread: whoever is on shift answers, including from a phone.
  • Notifications help hand a conversation to staff. Mobile push depends on the app, permissions and delivery; decide who monitors the queue.
  • Conversation history and the guest's contact live in your account — next to orders, bookings and appointments, in the cloud the account belongs to.
  • Window-label languages load in separate packs with an English fallback. Coverage varies by language; this does not translate messages or articles.
  • With the multibutton enabled, the chat bubble is hidden on purpose: one floating element stays on screen and the chat becomes an item in its fan.

Where the conversation goes and what happens next

Decide who sees new enquiries and who responds. In Masamenu.tr, guest conversations are in Work chat → Guests.

A conversation is a work-chat channel

Staff with guest-chat access open the conversation in the admin or app. For a site new to Masamenu.tr, this becomes a new team workspace.

Notifications arrive on substance, not on every message

A system card is created on the transition "this thread needs attention again", with repeat protection: the author of the event does not get the card, and self-assignment does not create one. Otherwise the team chat would become a stream of duplicates.

Contacts and enquiries in one admin

Guest conversations and the leads list are available to the team in one admin. This does not mean every message automatically becomes a separate lead.

The same toggle turns the chat on for the storefront

The widget works both on your site and on the Masamenu.tr storefront — no second setup and no second subscription.

When the chat is not configured, there is no widget

The widget appears after chat is configured and enabled. This does not check whether staff are online: send a test question and arrange a response.

Installation limits — on both sides

The tag, Google Tag Manager, single-page apps and Content-Security-Policy are the four places where chat usually breaks.

What we compare Tidio Masamenu.tr
What goes on the site On the captured pages installation is described as connecting the chat to the site plus integrations — deepest with Shopify, where the guest's order history appears inside the conversation card. source · 2026-09-01 One site/v1.js tag for all twelve widgets, with the chat enabled by a toggle. A standalone chat-widget/v1.js tag also works — but then the shared action links and QR codes are not read by it: each bundle has its own size budget.
Installing through Google Tag Manager The pages captured on 1 and 12 September 2026 do not describe GTM installation separately — worth checking in their help centre. (not stated on the pages we captured) It works. But the server-side install check will not see such a tag: it reads markup rather than executing the page — which is why we never raise a "your tag is gone" alert for GTM sites.
A single-page app (React, Vue, Next) Behaviour during navigation without a reload is not described on the captured pages. (not stated on the pages we captured) The chat window survives transitions: it mounts once into its container. A change of on the fly redraws the labels — that is watched separately.
A site with Content-Security-Policy The captured pages carry no CSP requirements and no host list. (not stated on the pages we captured) The loader copies its nonce onto the chat tag, so under a nonce-only policy the chat does load. But the window styles live in a Shadow DOM and need style-src 'unsafe-inline', and the language pack is a separate request to our CDN: blocked by the policy, the window opens in English and keeps working.

An empty cell on the left describes our snapshot of the vendor's marketing pages, not its capabilities: the Tidio help centre returned 403 on both attempts, so we could not check it there.

What gets metered: billing units

The Tidio snapshot meters human conversations, AI and Flows visitors separately. Masamenu.tr human team chat is free; AI and telephony cost extra.

What we compare Tidio Masamenu.tr
A conversation with a human reply The main unit, a "billable conversation": Starter $24.17 a month billed annually for 100 conversations, Growth from $49.17 for 250 and up, Plus from $300 plus usage. source · 2026-09-01 Not metered: we have no conversation limit.
A conversation with AI Lyro is billed separately — from $32.50 a month for 50 AI conversations; the Premium plan states a "50% AI resolution" guarantee. source · 2026-09-12 AI is charged separately under account terms; free chat does not include model costs. We do not guarantee an automatic resolution rate.
An operator seat Up to ten seats are included on Starter and Growth, while the price itself is tied to conversations rather than seats. source · 2026-09-01 Not charged: operator seats do not exist here as a concept. Anyone with access to the work chat can answer.
Visitors of scripted bots Flows is metered by visitors — from $24.17 a month for 2,000. source · 2026-09-01 Not charged, because we have no visual builder for scripted bots at all. That is a missing feature, not a benefit.
Trial period A 7-day trial is stated as of 12 September 2026. source · 2026-09-12 Basic human team chat is free; this is not a free AI or telephony trial.

Free chat and separate costs

  • No per-operator or human-conversation fee
  • AI replies and AI setup assistance cost extra
  • Telephony minutes and setup follow your provider’s terms
  • External channels require setup; availability depends on cloud and provider

When Tidio is the better fit

Compare these needs using the dated snapshot and check current vendor terms. One free widget does not replace testing the workflow.

  • You need an AI agent with a committed resolution rate

    On the Premium plan the vendor states a "50% AI resolution" guarantee as of 12 September 2026. Our AI assistant answers from your knowledge base and hands over to a human, but we guarantee no share of automatic resolutions — neither in a contract nor on a page.

    source · 2026-09-12
  • You have dedicated support at a desk

    The Tidio snapshot lists macOS/Windows apps, routing, macros and pre-send text preview. Masamenu.tr has browser admin, a mobile app, assignment rules and macros; this page does not promise a separate desktop client or unsent-text preview.

    source · 2026-09-01
  • You live inside Shopify

    Deep Shopify integration and the guest's order history right in the conversation card are the vendor's stated focus (captured 2026-09-01). Our chat knows your guest through our own orders and appointments, not through someone else's store.

    source · 2026-09-01
  • You need Instagram comments as a channel

    The vendor states handling of Instagram comments, not only direct messages (captured 2026-09-01).

    source · 2026-09-01
  • You do not run your operations with us

    If support already uses another inbox, assess moving channels, contacts and rules. You can use Masamenu.tr separately for a website, but the team needs to learn a new workspace.

What we do not promise

  • There is no visual builder for scripted bots: there is an AI assistant on the knowledge base, and there are people.
  • Conversation routing and assignment rules exist. We do not promise full parity with Tidio ticketing, a separate desktop client or unsent-text preview.
  • Window labels are not fully translated: English, Russian and Georgian have complete dictionaries; in other languages the guest will see part of the labels in English.
  • The window language pack translates labels. Live conversation translation is configured separately in guest chat and uses AI; the pack itself does not translate articles or replies.
  • There is no automatic reply by default: without configuring the AI assistant, the guest waits for a person, not a bot.
  • The web call is off by default: it needs configured telephony for the location, HTTPS on the site and the guest's microphone permission.
  • On .ru, email and incoming messages through the official WhatsApp Cloud API cannot be connected. Check other channel availability and provider permissions before switching.

Questions and answers

Is the chat really completely free?

Human team chat is free. AI costs extra; calls need your telephony setup and its tariff.Free does not mean staff or AI are already configured and ready to respond.

Who answers if I have no dedicated support?

Whoever is on shift. The conversation opens as a work-chat channel, and an administrator, a manager or the owner can answer — including from the mobile app. That is precisely why operator seats do not exist here.

Do you have AI?

There are three modes: off, staff draft and automatic reply until human handoff. AI costs extra and uses permitted knowledge and connected tools; check settings, replies and operator availability.

Can I connect Telegram and WhatsApp?

Telegram connects through your bot. WhatsApp and email depend on cloud, integration method and provider permissions; email and the official WhatsApp Cloud API are unavailable on .ru. Telegram was not listed in Tidio’s 1 September 2026 channel snapshot; check the vendor’s current list.

Will the widget slow my site down?

Chat loads its window, language pack and message connection. The call engine loads on click. Measure your website and check mobile layout: asynchronous loading does not mean zero impact.

What happens to the history if I leave?

Conversations and contacts are stored in your Masamenu.tr account, in the cloud that account belongs to: cenaly.com on AWS, cenaly.ru in Yandex Cloud in Russia.
