Hyperleap AI pricing in 2026: plans sold by AI replies

- Trial and terms: a 7-day trial on every plan with a card required, and no long-term contract or cancellation fee.
The page does not say how WhatsApp or Meta message fees are billed, or whether they are included at all. Ask Hyperleap AI before you plan a broadcast, because marketing templates are where Meta's charges add up.

RichAutomate pricing: INR, GST included, pay per message
RichAutomate is built for WhatsApp first. You pay a small plan fee in rupees, that fee comes back as wallet credit, and the platform charges a flat ₹0.10 per message. Meta bills its message charges to you directly on your own payment method, which is how Client Pay billing works. Replies inside the 24-hour customer service window carry no Meta charge.
| RichAutomate | What you pay |
|---|---|
| Starter plan | ₹499 per month, GST included |
| Pro plan | ₹899 per month, GST included |
| White-label plan | ₹1,199 per month, GST included |
| Platform fee | ₹0.10 per message |
| Meta charges | Billed by Meta to you directly, no markup |
| Plan fee | Returned as wallet credit |
| Extra seat | ₹199 per month |
| Extra number | ₹399 per month |
| Setup | ₹0, 7-day trial with 100 free credits, no card |

Hyperleap AI vs RichAutomate: cost for a WhatsApp business
The two tools charge for different things, so compare the same month. The table assumes a business that sends or answers 3,000 WhatsApp messages a month, the allowance on Hyperleap AI Plus, with three people on the team.
| 3,000 WhatsApp messages a month, three people | Hyperleap AI Plus | RichAutomate Starter |
|---|---|---|
| Plan a month | $40, about ₹3,520 | ₹499, GST included |
| Team members | 10 included | ₹499 plus 2 x ₹199 = ₹897 for three |
| What the allowance covers | 3,000 AI replies | ₹300 of messages at ₹0.10, covered by plan credit |
| Meta charges | Not stated on the page | Billed by Meta to you directly |
| Platform cost for a year | $480, about ₹42,240 | ₹10,764 |
Here is how the figures work. Hyperleap AI Plus at $40 a month is $480 for a year, about ₹42,240 before any card forex fee. On RichAutomate you pay ₹897 a month for Starter and two extra seats, or ₹10,764 for a year. The ₹499 plan fee comes back as wallet credit, and 3,000 messages at ₹0.10 cost ₹300, so the credit covers the platform fee.

Growth changes the picture. Past 3,000 AI replies on Plus you buy credit packs at $12 for 1,000, about ₹1,056, or move to Pro at $100, about ₹8,800 a month. On RichAutomate, 10,000 messages cost ₹1,000 in platform fees, of which ₹499 comes from plan credit. Annual billing narrows the gap: if the $360 yearly price is for Plus, that is $30 a month, about ₹2,640, still well above Starter.
The real question is how many of your chats need an AI answer. Most WhatsApp traffic for an Indian shop is order status, price lists, catalogue links and payment reminders, which fixed chatbot flows handle well. Read our WhatsApp AI agents vs chatbots guide before you pay per AI reply. To test flows on your own number, start a free 7-day trial with 100 credits and no card.
Where Hyperleap AI is the better choice
Hyperleap AI is a focused AI product, and some businesses should pick it:
- Many channels, one AI: the same agent answers on your website, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp.
- Large teams: Plus includes 10 team members and Max includes 100, with no per-seat charge.
- Open-ended questions: businesses with long, varied enquiries, such as courses or clinics, gain more from AI replies than from fixed flows.
- Managed setup: setup help is listed as free for now on every plan.
Where RichAutomate is the better choice
RichAutomate fits better for Indian businesses that sell and support mainly on WhatsApp. You pay in rupees with GST included, which gives your accounts team a clean Indian invoice and avoids card forex fees. The plan fee comes back as wallet credit, every message costs the same ₹0.10 platform fee, and Meta bills you directly with nothing added on top.
You get WhatsApp broadcasts with template management, a visual chatbot builder and a shared WhatsApp team inbox. For Meta's side of the bill, see our guide to WhatsApp Business API pricing in India.
The trial is easier to start too. Hyperleap AI asks for a card before its 7-day trial, while RichAutomate gives 7 days and 100 credits with no card, so you can connect your number and test real broadcasts and flows before you pay anything.
