KutrimBots vs Sintra AI at a glance

What is Sintra AI?

Sintra sells a bundle of AI employees called Sintra X. The 12 helpers are Cassie (customer support), Penn (copywriter), Buddy (business development), Dexter (data analyst), Commet (eCommerce), Milli (sales manager), Gigi (personal development), Scouty (recruiter), Seomi (SEO), Soshie (social media), Vizzy (virtual assistant) and Emmie (email marketer). Sintra says more than 50,000 entrepreneurs use it.

Each helper is a chat assistant tuned for its job. They share "Brain AI", where you add your website and files so answers fit your business, and they connect to tools such as Gmail, Outlook, Slack, HubSpot, Shopify, Meta Ads, Notion, QuickBooks and LinkedIn. Through those connections, helpers can send and reply to emails and publish social posts, and they can run scheduled tasks. Sintra has apps for iPhone and Android.

How much does Sintra AI cost?

Sintra's help centre lists one plan, Sintra X, with all 12 helpers. Prices as of October 29, 2026, before VAT:

The pricing page shows these next to higher crossed-out prices ($97, $59 and $52) labelled as savings. It also shows single helpers at $39 a month, but the help centre says: "We do not sell the Individual AI employee Plans anymore."

What do Sintra credits cover?

Every plan includes 250 credits a month, reset each month. Sintra's credit guide says a chat message uses 0.1 to 1 credit, a basic scheduled task 1 to 5 credits and a complex one 5 to 20 or more, and that "If a workspace runs out of credits, AI employees will stop working." Top-ups are available but aren't refundable.

An example scenario: five helpers each run one basic scheduled task a day, such as a morning email summary or a daily social post. That's about 150 tasks a month, or 150 to 750 credits at Sintra's published rates, so the monthly 250 can run out before chat use is counted.

How does KutrimBots compare on cost?

KutrimBots plans include AI usage at the model's list price:

• Solo: $20 a month, up to 5 agents, $10 of usage (about 3,300 replies), 20 automations.
• Team: $49 a month, up to 20 agents, $25 of usage (about 8,300 replies), 80 automations.
• Business: $89 a month, up to 50 agents, $50 of usage (about 16,700 replies), 200 automations.

A $10 top-up adds usage that carries over to later months, and you can connect your own AI provider so its usage isn't counted against your plan. Built-in tools such as the CRM, bookings and invoices don't cost extra. See how much an AI agent costs for how the pricing models compare.

Sintra's yearly price is lower on paper. For daily, scheduled work, KutrimBots usually includes far more AI usage for the money.

Helpers that write, or agents that run the business?

Sintra's helpers are strongest at creating things: copy, SEO articles, social posts, emails and data summaries. You ask, they produce, and you decide what to do with it.

KutrimBots agents are built to keep the business running:

• Customers: a website Chat Widget answers visitors and creates leads; Email Inbox gives an agent its own address, such as support@yourcompany.com; Support Desk tracks tickets.
• Sales: CRM & Leads keeps a pipeline from New to Won or Lost, with follow-up reminders that wake the agent when a lead is due. See AI sales agent.
• Admin: Bookings, Forms and Invoices, with quotes customers can accept.
• Teamwork: agents hand work to each other in channels, and share one memory in Super Brain.

Which is safer for sending emails and posts?

Sintra's helpers can send emails and publish posts through your connected accounts. Its help pages describe what these actions cost in credits, but we didn't find a setting for approving each action before it goes out.

KutrimBots asks before anything that sends, posts, pays or deletes. The first email to anyone new waits for your OK, approval cards show up in the chat and on your phone, and unanswered approvals expire instead of running later. Passwords sit in an encrypted Security Vault that agents use without seeing.

Where Sintra AI is better

• Low yearly price: $15.60 a month when paid for a year.
• Ready-made roles: 12 named helpers with clear jobs, so there's nothing to design.
• Content creation: copywriting, SEO, social posts and even short UGC-style videos.
• Phone apps for iPhone and Android.

Why businesses choose KutrimBots

• Flexible roles: start from a role or describe the job in your own words, up to 50 agents.

How do Sintra's helpers map to KutrimBots agents?

If you're switching, you don't need 12 agents. Most small businesses cover the same ground with four or five, each with a built-in tool behind it:

Put your prices, policies and brand voice into Super Brain once, and every agent uses the same facts.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free alternative to Sintra AI?

How much does Sintra AI cost per month?

As of October 29, 2026, Sintra X costs $48.50 a month billed monthly, $23.60 a month billed every three months, or $15.60 a month billed yearly, plus VAT, with 250 credits a month.

What happens when Sintra credits run out?

Sintra's help centre says that if a workspace runs out of credits, AI employees stop working until the credits reset or you buy a top-up. Top-up credits aren't refundable.

Can Sintra AI send emails for me?

Yes, through a connected Gmail or Outlook account, and sending an email uses credits. If you want each new contact approved first, KutrimBots holds the first email to anyone new until you allow it.
