How do I set up pay-as-you-go for employment law chat?

Chatref uses a pay-as-you-go model, not subscriptions. Every new account starts with $50 in free credit that never expires. There are no per-seat, per-bot, or hidden fees. Your employment law chat pricing is simple: each AI response costs 1–5 coins from your prepaid balance, depending on complexity. When idle, you pay $0.

Visit app.chatref.ai, sign up, and you're ready to onboard.

The AI agent grounds every answer in your documents, not internet guesses. Upload PDFs, policy guides, FAQs, or point the agent to your firm's existing site. This builds a knowledge base covering topics like wrongful termination, discrimination, wage-and-hour questions, and FMLA guidance.

All plans include unlimited agents and unlimited document training. An employment law-focused agent resolves repeat questions automatically, keeping your staff free for billable work.

Configure the agent's voice and add custom actions that collect case details directly in the chat - intake forms for potential clients, document requests, or scheduling for consultations. Custom actions make the chatbot a direct extension of your intake workflow.

Adjust the agent's behavior so it defers sensitive matters, such as imminent litigation, to your team.

The shared inbox gives your attorneys and paralegals a single view of every active conversation. When a chat needs human attention, anyone on the team can step in with full context already visible. No lost threads, no duplicate data entry.

Embed the Chatref widget on your law firm's website with a simple snippet. Once live, the AI handles the first line of employment law inquiries around the clock.

Your Chatref dashboard shows real‑time coin usage per conversation and your remaining balance. Because billing is per response, not a flat monthly fee, your law firm chat costs scale directly with inquiry volume. When client activity dips, your spend drops to zero. Top up only when you need more credit - no contracts, no automatic charges.

How does the pay-as-you-go model work?

You prepay for a balance of coins. Each chatbot response costs between 1 and 5 coins, depending on the model and the complexity of the answer. There is no monthly subscription. When your balance runs low, you add more credit. Unused credit never expires.

Can I set spending limits for my chatbot?

Chatref does not offer an automated hard spending cap, but you can monitor your coin balance at any time. Because the model is prepaid, you only spend what you load into the account and can choose to pause top‑ups. You're always in control of your law firm chat costs.

How do I monitor my AI chat billing and usage?

Your dashboard displays the coin balance, a breakdown of coins spent per conversation, and the historical usage trend. You can see exactly how many employment law chats took place and what each one cost, giving you full transparency into AI chat billing.
