## Common questions

### What is the difference between Lindy and Concierge?

Lindy is an AI teammate for each person on your team, in Slack, meetings, inboxes and calendars, and it bills every active user (checked October 19, 2026). Concierge is a set of digital employees that answer your customers by chat, phone, text, WhatsApp and email and do work for your team, priced per workspace with no per-user fees.

### How much does Lindy cost compared with Concierge?

Lindy’s Team plan starts at $29.99 a month for 3,000 credits, and every active user in the workspace is billed, so 10 users on that tier come to $3,598.80 a year; SSO, SCIM and HIPAA are on the custom Enterprise plan (checked October 19, 2026). Concierge Starter is $20 a month with 20,000 credits and Pro is $199 a month, or $1,990 a year, with 199,000 credits, for the whole workspace.

### Where does Lindy lead?

Lindy records meetings and takes notes, manages inboxes and calendars, and makes outbound calls for you, including phone menus and waiting on hold. Its Enterprise plan adds SSO with SCIM and HIPAA with a signed BAA. Concierge does none of those; it is built to serve your customers and run work for your store.

### Can Concierge refund a Shopify order like Lindy?

Lindy lists a Refund Order action in its Shopify integration (checked October 19, 2026). Concierge opens the return and a teammate approves the refund, so money only moves when a person says so. Concierge can also look up orders and change subscriptions while it talks with the customer.
