deepDive:
  title: "Feature by feature"
  sections:
    - heading: "Room to grow: no migration when you scale"
      body: "Chatnube handles AI conversations but not automations, reviews, or storefront cross-sell, so a store that grows past a low order volume outgrows it and has to switch tools. Burbuxa's entry Takeoff plan fits a small store too, and already includes the automations, reviews, cross-sell, and four-platform sync a growing store needs — so you start small and scale on the same product."
      source: "https://chatnube.com/"
    - heading: "Scope: AI conversations vs a full ecommerce OS"
      body: "Chatnube charges for AI conversations — a 24-hour exchange with a contact — and is built into the TiendaNube store experience. Burbuxa adds selling from the live catalog, in-chat checkout, 18 automations, reviews, and storefront cross-sell on top of the conversation, covering more of the store's workflow."
      source: "https://chatnube.com/"
    - heading: "Pricing: per conversation in ARS vs per message in USD"
      body: "Chatnube bills monthly per AI conversation in Argentine pesos, at a rate set by your TiendaNube plan ($190 to $400 ARS per conversation). Burbuxa bills per message from one shared monthly quota in US dollars ($20 to $200), so the unit and currency differ."
      source: "https://chatnube.com/"
    - heading: "Why Burbuxa charges per message, not per conversation"
      body: "It is the fairer, more transparent model. To charge per conversation, a vendor has to estimate the average number of messages per conversation and set one price around that. Because every conversation then costs the same, the longest ones are underpriced and most — the short ones — are overpriced. Since no company can afford to lose money, vendors that bill per conversation tend to set the price above the estimated average to protect their margin against heavy users, so you often end up paying more per conversation than you would per message. Per message is simple: you pay for exactly what you use. A customer who only checks an order status can be a single message; a customer who asks for recommendations and advice has a richer conversation that creates more value and is charged accordingly. Short interactions cost less and fuller ones cost more — and you can configure your assistant to answer only the basics or to act like a real advisor, so you choose between a simple, low-cost assistant and a much more capable one."

whenBurbuxa:
  title: "When to choose Burbuxa"
  body: "Choose Burbuxa when you run an online store — or plan to grow one — and want an AI agent that sells from your live catalog, closes checkout in chat, and adds automations, reviews, and storefront cross-sell across Shopify, TiendaNube, VTEX, or WooCommerce. The Takeoff plan fits a small store too, so you start small and scale on the same product without migrating later."
faq:
  - q: "Is Burbuxa better than Chatnube?"
    a: "Neither is better in the abstract. Chatnube fits a very small TiendaNube store that wants simple AI chat priced per conversation in pesos. Burbuxa fits a store that sells from its catalog, closes checkout in chat, and wants automations, reviews, and cross-sell across Shopify, TiendaNube, VTEX, or WooCommerce as it grows."
  - q: "What is the difference between Burbuxa and Chatnube?"
    a: "Chatnube is a built-in TiendaNube AI conversation tool billed per 24-hour conversation in Argentine pesos, with no automations, reviews, or cross-sell. Burbuxa is an AI ecommerce operating system that sells from your catalog, closes checkout, and adds automations and reviews across four platforms, billed per message in US dollars."
  - q: "How much does Burbuxa cost compared to Chatnube?"
    a: "Chatnube bills per AI conversation in Argentine pesos, from about $190 to $400 ARS per conversation by your TiendaNube plan. Burbuxa costs $20 to $200 per month in US dollars from one shared message quota — the $20 Takeoff plan fits a small store too. Compare expected conversation volume."
  - q: "Should a growing store choose Burbuxa or Chatnube?"
    a: "Burbuxa. Chatnube is a conversations-only tool with no automations, reviews, or cross-sell, so a store that grows past a low order volume outgrows it and migrates. Burbuxa's Takeoff plan fits a small store and already includes what you need as you scale, on the same product."
  - q: "Does Chatnube have automations and reviews like Burbuxa?"
    a: "No. Chatnube handles AI conversations and does not include automations, review collection, or storefront cross-sell. Burbuxa adds 18 prebuilt automations, post-delivery review requests, and AI cross-sell on Shopify, TiendaNube, and VTEX storefronts on top of the conversation."
  - q: "How does Chatnube charge — per conversation or per message?"
    a: "Chatnube charges per AI conversation, defined as a 24-hour exchange with one contact, billed monthly by conversation count in Argentine pesos. Burbuxa charges per message from one shared monthly quota in US dollars, so the two units are not directly equivalent."
  - q: "Why does Burbuxa charge per message instead of per conversation?"
    a: "Because you pay for exactly what you use. Charging per conversation means setting one average price, so short conversations are overpriced — and vendors usually set it above the average to cover heavy users, so you often pay more. With Burbuxa, a quick question costs less and a richer conversation costs more."
