For most Indian businesses WhatsApp outperforms email by a wide margin. The challenge is handling volume without losing the personal tone that makes it work.
Start with the basics before the API
A complete business profile, a product catalogue, quick replies for your ten most frequent questions, and labels to track enquiry stages. Most businesses never even finish this step.
Automate the predictable messages
Order confirmation, dispatch update, delivery confirmation, appointment reminder and review request. These five templates cover the majority of routine messaging.
Add AI where it saves real time
An assistant that answers pricing, availability and location instantly, then hands over cleanly to a human when the question gets specific. Always make the handover visible to the customer.
Respect the broadcast rules
Only message people who opted in, keep frequency low and make every broadcast genuinely useful. Blocks and spam reports damage your number permanently.
Frequently asked questions
Business app or Cloud API?
Under 50 conversations a day, the free Business app is enough. Above that, the API with a proper inbox is worth the cost.
Can AI reply in Hindi?
Yes, including Hinglish, which usually gets better response rates for local audiences.
