The Chatly alternative without the per-tier limits
Chatly and Zeplik start from the same good idea: one subscription, many models, in one chat. The difference is what a tier buys. Chatly meters the things you came for -- connected apps, knowledge bases and scheduled tasks are capped per plan. On Zeplik the plan sets your monthly credit allowance and nothing else, so 900 connected apps, 465 skills and your document collections are all there from the first paid plan.
Free to start. No credit card required.

If the multi-model chat is what you liked about Chatly, you will find it here. What changes is that you stop meeting a limit on how many apps you may connect or how many document collections you may keep, and start meeting only the credit balance you bought.

Why people switch to Zeplik
The limit you meet is the one you chose
On a metered plan you discover the cap at the worst moment: when you try to connect the app the task needed. Zeplik has one limit, the credit balance you bought, so you never find out mid-task that the capability itself was on a higher tier.
You can see which model you are talking to
A speed mode is a decision made for you. Zeplik names every one of its 285 models and lets you switch mid-conversation, so you can send the reasoning to one and the drafting to another and know which did what.
Documents that are read properly
A collection under the budget is read in full, losslessly. Over it, hybrid retrieval packs the same ceiling with the passages that answer your actual question, found by meaning and by exact term together, so a part number or an error code is found rather than missed.
Connectors are not a tier
All 900 connected apps are available on the first paid plan. The question is only whether a task is worth the credits, never whether your plan is allowed to do it.
Where Chatly is the better pick
No tool wins at everything. Here is where Chatly is genuinely the stronger choice, so you can decide honestly.
- A simpler set of choices. Presenting a few speed modes instead of hundreds of named models is a real kindness to someone who does not want to choose. Zeplik's picker is more powerful and asks more of you, and for some people that is a worse trade.
- An established product. Chatly has been doing multi-model chat for longer and the experience is polished. Breadth is not the same as maturity, and it is fair to weigh both.

Frequently asked questions
- Is Zeplik a good alternative to Chatly?
- Yes, particularly if you have hit a per-tier cap. Zeplik gives you 285 named models, 900 connected apps and 465 skills on every paid plan, with the plan setting only your monthly credit allowance. It is free to start.
- Does Zeplik limit how many apps I can connect?
- No. All 900 connected apps are available on every paid plan. Usage draws on your credit balance rather than unlocking a feature.
- Can I keep a knowledge base of my own documents?
- Yes. Collections start at 25 on the entry plan and go to 500 on the top plan. A collection is read to a fixed token ceiling and cited by page, so a large library does not have to be re-sent on every message.
- Can I choose the model, or does it choose for me?
- Both. Auto picks a model for the prompt if you want that, and you can name any of 285 models yourself and switch mid-conversation.
The bottom line
Chatly and Zeplik agree on the premise and disagree on the pricing. If you have hit a cap on connected apps, knowledge bases or scheduled tasks and found the fix was a bigger plan rather than more usage, Zeplik prices the usage instead of the features. Free to start.
