How to purchase
A super_admin enables the add-on from Settings → Billing. It’s added as a
line item on your existing subscription — one invoice, prorated automatically,
no separate checkout.
Enabling the add-on
Go to Settings → Billing
Click "Enable add-on" on the AI Assistant card
Wait for confirmation
Turn on auto-respond per application
Entitlement comes from Stripe, not a toggle
Whether the add-on is active is derived from your Stripe subscription, not a flag you can flip directly. If a payment fails or the subscription is canceled, the add-on turns off automatically.
Data-connection: included with the add-on
Connecting the AI Assistant to your own HTTP endpoints or a database (the “data tools” that let it answer with your real data) is part of the AI Assistant add-on — the same entitlement that unlocks the assistant itself.
- Requires the AI Assistant add-on active (available on Premium and Enterprise plans).
- SQL data tools additionally require enabling the database connection per application. For SQL sources, grant a SELECT-only database user so the assistant can never modify your data.
- No separate onboarding or custom plan is required.
Without the add-on, the AI Assistant is unavailable; with it, both the assistant and its live data tools are unlocked.
Usage quota
AI Assistant replies count against your organization’s monthly AI usage quota, shared with the operator-assist AI features (Generate Reply / Improve Message). See Plans & Pricing for the caps that apply to your plan; ENTERPRISE organizations can have a custom cap configured.
