AiSensy vs RichAutomate

AiSensy is a strong India-native option, but agencies and high-volume brands often hit limits with bulk-broadcast pricing tiers and the lack of true Client-Pay billing. Here is how it stacks up against RichAutomate.

Meta per-message rates (utility, marketing, authentication, service) are published by Meta and identical across BSPs. Differences come from BSP platform fees and message markups. Confirmed against business.whatsapp.com/products/platform-pricing.

Our take

When AiSensy is the right call — and when it isn't.

Pick AiSensy if you want a polished India-native UI, your team is comfortable with their tier-based pricing, and you do not need to bill end-clients separately or run AI replies natively. Pick RichAutomate if you run an agency or multi-brand setup that needs Client-Pay billing, want every Meta cost itemised in a real wallet ledger you can export, or need a flow builder that handles graph branching, delay nodes, and inline AI calls. Switching takes 7 days with our free migration team.

Frequently asked

Is AiSensy or RichAutomate cheaper for Indian D2C brands?+
For brands under 50k messages a month, both land within 5-10% of each other on total monthly cost. For brands above 200k marketing messages a month, RichAutomate typically saves 12-25% because per-message markups are itemised at Meta rates rather than tiered into bundles.
Can I migrate templates and flows from AiSensy without rebuilding?+
Templates port directly because they live with Meta — we re-submit them under your WABA on RichAutomate, takes 24-48 hours per template. Flows do need to be rebuilt in our graph-based builder, which our migration team handles at no cost for switchers.
Will my WhatsApp number transfer without downtime?+
Yes. Meta supports number portability between BSPs with a 7-day cool-down between deletion from old BSP and registration on new BSP. We schedule the cut-over so there is zero gap in inbound message processing.
Does RichAutomate offer the same chatbot builder UX as AiSensy?+
The visual builder concept is similar but the engine differs. RichAutomate uses a graph model that allows true branching, parallel delay nodes, and inline AI calls. AiSensy is more linear-conversation focused. If your flows need conditional branching beyond yes/no, the difference is significant.
Is there a free trial for RichAutomate?+
Yes — 14 days free, full feature access, no credit card required. You only pay Meta per-message charges during trial (no platform fee). After trial, plans start at INR pricing with GST invoicing.
