# Nossy vs Coze

> Coze is a bot builder from ByteDance. You design the bot, then put it in a chat. Nossy is the finished secretary. Interview, workbook in your Drive, already in LINE or Telegram.

## Short answer

Coze is a platform for building bots and putting them in chat apps. It is a builder. Nossy is the bot already built for a shop: setup is an interview, the database is a workbook in Drive, and staff never see a design canvas.

## What Coze is for

Coze is ByteDance's platform for building AI bots. You configure prompts, tools, and knowledge, then publish the bot into chat apps. For a team that wants to design its own agent, that is the job. It is a builder, the same family as n8n and Gumloop, pointed at bots.

## Where it breaks in a chat-run shop

### You still have to design it

The owner did not want a bot studio. They wanted a secretary. Coze hands them the studio.

### Customer-facing by default

Many Coze bots talk to customers. Nossy must not. Mixing those is how a shop accidentally messages the outside.

### The database is your problem

Coze does not interview you and produce a shop workbook. You still pick where facts live.

## What Nossy does instead

The design work is the setup interview. After that, staff talk. Rows land in Drive. Keep Coze if you wanted to build a bot. Nossy is not a platform.

## What Nossy does not do

- Nossy works in LINE, Telegram, and WhatsApp direct chats. WhatsApp group chats and iMessage are coming soon.
- Nossy does not connect to your other software yet. Tool connections are coming soon.
- Nossy never messages your customers. It works inside your team's own chat, and it nudges your own people.
- Nossy does not replace a POS, a payment system, or accounting software.
- Nossy reads a spreadsheet you already have once, during setup, and only if you share it as anyone with the link. Day to day it sees the files it created or was sent in chat, so a file you drop into the Drive folder by hand stays invisible to it.
- The report pages Nossy builds are public links that last about a day. The workbook in your Drive is the durable record.
- Coze lets you design prompts, tools, and multi-agent bots, then publish them to several channels. A builder who wants that control should use Coze. Nossy is not a bot platform.
- Coze is self-serve. Nossy is in beta and onboards by call. Coze also covers customer-facing bots, which Nossy refuses to be.

## Pricing

- Plus is $20 a month with 4,000 credits. Pro is $40 with 8,000. Max is $100 with 20,000.
- One price per business. Your whole team chats with Nossy at no extra cost, because there are no seats.
- Credits measure the work Nossy does. $1 buys 200 credits. Plan credits reset monthly, top-up credits do not expire.
- There is no free plan. Nossy is in beta and we onboard teams by call.

## Common questions

### Can Nossy replace Coze?

Not as a bot platform. Coze is for people who want to build bots. Nossy is a finished secretary. Nossy also never messages customers, which many Coze bots are for.

### Will my staff actually use it?

A Coze bot only works if someone designed it well. Nossy is designed around operations during setup. Staff just talk.

### What does it cost compared to Coze?

See coze.com for current plans (as of 2026-08). Nossy is $20, $40, or $100 a month per business.

### What happens to my data if I stop?

Nossy's workbook stays in your Google Drive. A Coze bot's data stays wherever you pointed it.
