FAQ

WA.Expert vs AiSensy — common questions

Is AiSensy cheaper than WA.Expert?

AiSensy's entry plan starts at ₹999/month vs WA.Expert's ₹2,499/month. However, AiSensy's ₹999 plan has significant feature restrictions — limited API, basic inbox, no AI chatbot. A true feature-equivalent comparison shows pricing is more similar at growth tier. Choose based on your feature needs, not just entry price.

Does AiSensy have an AI chatbot?

AiSensy does not have a GPT-powered AI chatbot. WA.Expert includes GPT-4o AI chatbot on all plans. If intelligent chatbot capability is important for your business, WA.Expert is the clear choice.

Which is better for WhatsApp broadcast campaigns?

AiSensy is optimised for broadcast campaigns with a clean campaign management interface. WA.Expert has equivalent broadcast capabilities plus the full automation stack. If 90%+ of your WhatsApp use is broadcast campaigns with minimal chatbot/API need, AiSensy's lower price may suit you.

Can I own my WhatsApp Business Account (WABA) with AiSensy?

WABA ownership terms vary by BSP and plan. With WA.Expert, your business always owns the WABA and phone number — you can migrate to another BSP if needed. Verify WABA ownership terms before committing to any platform.

Which platform is better for education businesses?

Education businesses typically need: broadcast for batch announcements, chatbot for admission enquiries, and team inbox for counsellor conversations. WA.Expert covers all three well. AiSensy covers broadcast well but has limited chatbot and inbox capabilities — making WA.Expert the stronger overall choice for education.
