Sound Familiar?

Sound familiar? Here's how Wati fixes it.

Every pain you've felt with your current tool, solved.

💸

Paying per seat, per message, per feature

Some tools bill you for every message, every agent, every integration. The invoice grows faster than your team does.

Unlimited agents, flat pricing

One predictable price. Unlimited team members, unlimited conversations. No message-count surprises at month-end.

⚙️

Setup needs a developer

Competitor tools require API knowledge and weeks of engineering time just to get a number live. Every change goes through your dev queue.

Live in 24 hours, no code

Official Meta Business Partner onboarding gets you verified and live in a day. Every change is drag-and-drop, no dev queue.

🧩

Your tools don't talk to each other

CRM data stays in the CRM. Chat stays in chat. Your team juggles tabs and manually copies information between systems all day.

250+ native integrations

Shopify, HubSpot, Salesforce, Meta Ads, and more, one-click connected, out of the box. No Zapier duct tape.

🕶️

No visibility into team performance

Which agent closed the most conversations? What's your average response time? Most WhatsApp tools give you zero answers.

Per-agent analytics + CSAT

See conversation counts, response times, and satisfaction scores for every agent. Know exactly what is working.

📞

Support takes days to respond

When something breaks, you open a ticket and wait. Enterprise customers of major platforms know this frustration all too well.

24/7 dedicated support

Real human support around the clock via chat and email. Most issues resolved in under an hour.

🔒

Locked into a contract you regret

Annual contracts with steep exit penalties. You keep paying for a product that isn't working because switching feels too painful.

Month-to-month, no lock-in

Cancel anytime, no exit penalties. We earn your business every month.

See it in action — a real inbox, real conversations, real integrations.

Hi! We're evaluating WhatsApp tools for our 20-person support team. What does enterprise look like?

Hi Sarah! Enterprise includes unlimited agents, dedicated onboarding, and priority SLA support.

We're currently on respond.io — how complex is the migration to Wati?

Most teams migrate in under 24 hours. We handle setup of your number, flows, and contacts end to end.

That sounds much easier than what we went through setting up Twilio 😅 What's next?

Patient coverage

The Challenge

C-MER's 30+ medical centres in Hong Kong were managing patient enquiries across phone calls, SMS, and fragmented messaging channels. During peak hours, response delays frustrated patients while staff spent hours fielding repetitive booking questions instead of delivering care.

The Solution

Wati centralised all patient communication into a single WhatsApp Business API inbox, with an AI Receptionist handling FAQs, appointment booking automation across specialties, smart reminders reducing missed visits, and a shared team inbox allowing doctors' receptionists to collaborate in real time.

Wati features deployed

AI Receptionist — 24/7 patient query handling

Appointment Automation — booking across all specialties

Smart Reminders — reduced missed appointments

Team Inbox — coordinated across 30+ centres

Wati transformed how our patients interact with us across every centre. Response times dropped dramatically and our team can finally focus on delivering care instead of fielding calls.

Abandoned-cart recovery via Shopify integration

The Challenge

Supermade was losing revenue from abandoned carts going cold — shoppers dropped off at checkout, and manual follow-up was too slow to win them back. Marketing campaigns were scattered across channels, making reach and return difficult to measure. On top of that, sales and support conversations lacked one shared view for the whole team.

The Solution

Wati centralised customer communication into one WhatsApp Business API workspace — with automated abandoned-cart recovery through native Shopify integration, segmented broadcast campaigns with measurable open and conversion rates, and a shared team inbox that gives sales and support a single view of every customer.

Wati features deployed

Broadcast Campaigns — segmented promotional outreach

Smart Segments & Retargeting — audience filters for personalised offers

Shopify Integration — automated abandoned-cart recovery

Team Inbox — unified sales + support view

WhatsApp Flows — structured customer conversations

Analytics & CX Insights — campaign performance tracking

We mainly use Wati for broadcasts and abandoned-cart recovery — our broadcast ROI has reached 20× and above.

Time saved per conversation

The Challenge

AIWS handled every WhatsApp order and inquiry with fully manual follow-up, no automation, no routing. Bad weather meant staff had to contact each customer one by one to reschedule, driving complaints. As customer volumes grew, so did the need for more manual headcount, operational costs were rising with no end in sight.

The Solution

Wati automated customer notifications through Broadcast Campaigns, so weather-related rescheduling could be sent to all affected customers at once instead of one by one. Automated chatbots handled repetitive inquiries, and native integrations with the WEEE API and Google Forms streamlined order handling, cutting staff workload while improving customer satisfaction.

Shared team inbox replaces personal phones

The Challenge

Kits-Tutor's staff were contacting parents and tutors from their personal mobile phones with no shared system. Multiple team members would sometimes reach out to the same person simultaneously, confusing customers. When any team member took leave, inquiries went unanswered and business opportunities were lost.

The Solution

Wati consolidated all customer communication into a single shared team inbox with intelligent routing, so every inquiry reaches the right team member even when someone is away. Automation handles first-touch responses instantly, and the WhatsApp Business API gives Kits-Tutor an official, professional presence that parents trust.

Questions teams ask before switching to Wati

Setup, pricing, compliance, migration — everything worth knowing before your demo.

Most Asked Why should we switch from OmniChat, ManyChat, or respond.io to Wati?

OmniChat and ManyChat lack a true multi-agent shared inbox. respond.io charges per seat and feature. Wati gives you a no-code flow builder, shared team inbox, broadcast campaigns, and 250+ integrations at a flat, predictable price. Most teams see the difference within the first week.

Setup & Migration

How long does migrating from another WhatsApp tool take?

Most teams are fully migrated and live in under 24 hours. Our onboarding team handles the WhatsApp number transfer, imports your contact lists, and rebuilds your key automation flows, at no extra charge.

Can I keep my existing WhatsApp number when switching?

Yes. Wati supports number porting from most WhatsApp Business API providers including 360dialog, MessageBird, and AiSensy. Your clients won't notice any interruption.

Pricing & Trust

How does pricing actually work?

Wati offers flat monthly and annual plans that include unlimited agents, the chatbot builder, broadcasts, all integrations, AI Copilot, and included AI credits — with no per-seat or per-feature charges. Competitor tools typically charge separately for AI features and credits on top of their base plan. See our full Pricing page → for current tiers, or ask our team during your demo for a plan that fits your team size.

Is Wati more expensive than the competition?

No. Wati's flat monthly plans include unlimited agents, the chatbot builder, broadcasts, and integrations. Competitor tools charge separately for each, making Wati significantly more cost-effective as your team grows.

What happens if Wati doesn't work for us?

Wati runs on flat monthly plans with no annual lock-in. You can cancel anytime with no exit penalties, and your data is fully exportable, take your contact lists, message history, and automation flows with you if you leave.

Compliance & Security

Is Wati GDPR and data compliant?

Yes. Wati is ISO 27001 certified and fully GDPR compliant. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access-controlled, and managed in line with global data privacy regulations including PDPA and CCPA.

Where is my data stored and who owns it?

Your data is stored on secure servers in your chosen region (US, EU, or APAC, configurable during onboarding). You retain full ownership of all data at all times, and can export or delete it at any point through your dashboard.

Onboarding & Support

What kind of onboarding support do we get?

Every plan includes a dedicated onboarding specialist who handles your migration, imports your contacts, sets up your first automation flows, and trains your team, all included at no extra charge. Most teams are fully onboarded in under 24 hours.

Can I try Wati before booking a demo?

Yes. Start a 7-day free trial with no credit card required, full access to the chatbot builder, team inbox, broadcast campaigns, and integrations. If you'd rather see a walkthrough first, our team can guide you through a live 30-minute demo.

Do I need a developer to set up and manage Wati?

No. Wati's visual drag-and-drop flow builder requires zero coding. Your marketing or ops team can build, edit, and launch chatbot flows independently, no tickets, no waiting, no developer dependency.

Still have questions?

Talk to our team — we'll answer everything in a 30-minute demo.
