Sounds familiar?

How it runs today

  • Enquiries come at night and on Sundays, and the first reply goes the next afternoon.
  • By the time someone calls back, the customer has spoken to two other firms.
  • The same ten questions are typed again and again: price, timing, address, process.
  • Numbers from ads and portals sit in someone's phone and are never followed up a second time.
  • You do not know how many enquiries came this week, or from where.

What is inside

Every part, spelled out

⚡

First reply in a minute

Day or night. It answers timings, location, starting prices and process from your own approved answers.

✍️

Draft mode

To begin with it only writes the reply and a person presses send. Topics move to automatic one at a time.

🧑

Hand over to a person

Discounts, complaints, bulk orders and anything it is not sure about go to your team at once, with an alert.

📥

Enquiries saved

Every chat becomes an enquiry with name, need and source. Nothing stays only in a phone.

🔁

Seven-day follow-up

Three follow-ups in your words. They stop the moment the customer replies, books or says no.

Where two or three people answer WhatsApp between calls, visits and site work.

O

Why the first reply matters

A person who sends an enquiry is usually asking two or three firms at the same time. The one who answers first, with something useful, gets the call. In a small business the first reply waits for someone to be free, and that can be hours.

What the assistant does

  • Replies to every new enquiry within a minute, from answers you have approved.
  • Saves the enquiry with the person's need and where they came from.
  • Offers the next step: a visit, a call or a quote.
  • Follows up three times over seven days if there is no answer, then stops.
  • Hands over to a person for discounts, complaints, big orders and anything unusual.

How AI is used, and where it stops

The AI writes replies from your answer bank. It does not invent prices, delivery dates or promises. In the first weeks it works in draft mode: it writes, a person sends. You then choose, topic by topic, what it may send by itself. A person can take over any chat at any time.

What it does not do

It does not make sales calls, it does not send bulk promotions to people who never wrote to you, and it does not close a deal by itself. People do that.

What we need from you

  • Your ten most common questions and the answers you give today
  • Your price ranges and what is included
  • The WhatsApp Business number you want to use
  • One person who will check the drafts in the first weeks

Questions

Before you ask

Is this a chatbot that talks like a robot?+

It answers in plain sentences from answers you approve, and it says so when a person will take over. It does not pretend to be human and it does not make up prices or promises.

Can it give a wrong answer to a customer?+

It answers only from your approved answer bank. It starts in draft mode, where a person reads every reply before it goes. Anything outside the answer bank is handed to a person.

What does it cost to run?+

Besides our monthly plan, you pay the WhatsApp Business tool directly, about ₹500 to ₹2,800 a month plus message charges, and a small usage charge for the AI model. We set a monthly limit so there are no surprises.

Will our number get blocked?+

It uses WhatsApp's official business route, not an unofficial bulk tool. Messages go only to people who wrote to you first, and follow-ups stop when someone asks.

Does it work in Hindi and Hinglish?+

Yes. It replies in the language the customer writes in, using your approved answers.

How long does it take to start?+

About two weeks for one process, including loading your current data and training your staff. You first see a demo on your own data, before you pay anything.

Is it charged per user?+

No. The setup has one fixed price and the monthly plan is flat. Add as many staff as you have.

Where is our data kept?+

Your quote explains the two options: on a server we run for you, or on your own server. Either way the data is yours and you can export it at any time.
