Rechlio vs Gallabox
These two are priced on different axes, which makes the comparison unusually clean: Gallabox charges by how many people use it, Rechlio charges by how much you do with it. Which is cheaper depends on the shape of your team, and this page has the numbers to work it out.
Seats versus actions
Gallabox prices by seats: the plan sets how many people can use it, and more people costs more. Rechlio does not charge per seat — the cost is per action taken, so a team of six that sends little pays less than a team of two that sends a great deal.
Seat pricing has a real virtue — it is predictable, and finance departments like it. Its cost is that the price of letting one more person see the inbox is a line item, which is how shared logins get created.

When each shape wins
A team of six, sending a little
Per-seat pricing charges for all six whether or not they sent anything this month. Per-action pricing charges for what was sent. This is the case where the shapes diverge most, and it describes a lot of Indian sales teams — several people in an inbox, a few hundred messages a week.
One person, sending enormous volume
Now the per-seat plan is a flat fee against unlimited use, and per-action pricing scales with the volume. This is the case where a subscription is the cheaper shape, and it would be dishonest to pretend otherwise.
The cost calculator takes your volumes and gives you the Rechlio side of that arithmetic at the real rates. The Gallabox side is in the table above.
When Gallabox is the better choice
- You want one predictable monthly invoice more than you want usage-based pricing.
- You sell outside India as well as inside it — their pricing is published in dollars and dirhams too.
- You already have your contacts and do not need to find businesses.
- A pooled AI credit allowance fits how you plan spending better than per-action metering does.
When Rechlio is
- Your team is bigger than your sending volume. Seats are the thing you would rather not pay for.
- You need to find the businesses, not only message ones you already know.
- You want email, SMS and AI voice calls in the same campaign as WhatsApp.
- You would rather Meta billed you for WhatsApp directly, with nothing added on top.
Questions
- Does Rechlio charge per user?
- No. Adding a colleague to a workspace costs nothing; what is metered is actions — finding a business, scoring it, sending on email, SMS or voice. WhatsApp carries no Rechlio fee at all.
- So is Rechlio cheaper?
- For a team where several people share an inbox but the sending volume is modest, per-seat pricing is the expensive shape and per-action is not. For one person sending enormous volume, it can be the other way round. That is genuinely the honest answer, and the calculator will settle it with your numbers rather than ours.
- Does Rechlio have AI credits?
- No credit pool to run down. AI use is priced per action — ₹2.00 to score and segment a lead, ₹0.10 to classify an incoming reply — so there is nothing to forecast and nothing to top up separately.
