What changes after the demo

4 differences to evaluate

1. Klaviyo is built around B2C events

Browsed product, abandoned cart, purchase history, catalog data, predicted behavior, and lifecycle segments can drive highly personalized email and mobile messaging. Ecommerce teams should not underrate that specialization.

2. Chirply is built around active work

Contacts move through pipelines, appointments, calls, texts, inboxes, workflows, forms, and client operations. That is a better fit when humans are selling and servicing accounts rather than primarily optimizing storefront lifecycle revenue.

3. Pricing follows different units

Klaviyo scales around active profiles and channel volume. Chirply publishes flat core platform tiers with unlimited contacts, while Twilio and Mailgun usage is paid to the connected providers.

4. Bring sales and service into the customer journey

Chirply gives your team a place to work each relationship through calls, appointments, pipelines and follow-up. Map your store events and required lifecycle messages into a pilot so the move preserves the customer journeys your business depends on.

Your move to Chirply

Build your first connected workflow

Map your customer journey

List the triggers, fields, reports, integrations and permissions your team relies on. Use that list to set up your first complete customer journey in Chirply.

Run a small pilot

Use sample records and an internal test audience. Recreate one complete workflow from lead capture through follow-up and payment, checking permissions and reporting at each step.

Budget the complete move

Compare the selected plan, optional apps, provider usage, implementation time and any subscriptions you will retain. Confirm export formats and retention requirements before scheduling a cutover.

Check the commercial terms

Everyone starts with the full platform free for 14 days on Scale. Scale is the only plan with a free trial. A card is required, and you pay nothing today. After your trial, stay on Scale at $97/month or downgrade to any other retail plan. Choose a lower plan in Billing before the trial ends to start there when billing begins, or cancel before then and pay nothing. Connected-provider usage is separate.

Reseller Partner is $297 a month and White-Label Partner is $497 a month. Each one is a complete subscription that includes a Scale-level account, so it replaces a retail plan rather than sitting on top of one. Lower founding rates exist, but only inside a timed window offered shortly after signup — the price on your own Billing screen is the one that applies to you.
