Which one fits your business?
You sell products online and want one system.
- Most of your WhatsApp messages are about orders, COD and carts
- You send a lot of marketing messages and want Meta's rate without a margin
- You want your store, inventory and GST invoices in the same place
- You'd rather have our team set it up than configure it yourself
You only need WhatsApp marketing.
- You don't sell through an online store, or already run one you're happy with
- You want AI chatbot add-ons and a self-serve tool
- You send few messages, so the per-message margin hardly matters
