A single trained assistant operates across all three channels from one backend.

Plans start at Rs. 7,999 per month plus a one-time setup of Rs. 24,999 (Starter, up to 1,000 conversations/mo). The Growth plan is Rs. 14,999 per month plus Rs. 39,999 setup (up to 2,000 conversations/mo). The Pro plan is Rs. 24,999 per month plus Rs. 79,999 setup (up to 5,000 conversations/mo). Every plan includes design, training on your content, launch, and ongoing optimisation. GST is extra. (Meta WhatsApp conversation fees charged separately by Meta). ### How fast can we go live? Most bots are live within 7 business days. After a kickoff call, AgentIQ collects the client's menu or services, FAQs, and policies, builds and trains the assistant, runs a testing session with the client, then deploys across the chosen channels. No coding required. ### Which channels and tools do you integrate with? WhatsApp via the official Business API, Instagram DMs, and a website chat widget — all powered by one assistant. Integrations include CRMs, Google Sheets, Razorpay and UPI payment links, Shopify, and booking calendars. ### Does the assistant support Hindi and human takeover? Yes. The assistant replies in English, Hindi, and Hinglish, with regional languages available on request. When a customer asks for a human or the query is sensitive, the assistant hands off to the client's team and sends them an instant notification. ### Where is data stored, and who owns it? All conversation data belongs to the client. AgentIQ uses encrypted, India-compliant infrastructure, shares access only with authorised team members, and never sells or reuses client data. Clients can export or delete their data at any time. ### What industries does AgentIQ serve? Primary verticals: restaurants and cloud kitchens, salons and spas, clinics and healthcare providers, D2C e-commerce brands. AgentIQ can be deployed for any customer-facing SMB with repetitive inbound enquiries. ### Is there a free trial or demo? AgentIQ offers a live demo call where prospective clients can interact with a sample assistant built for their industry. Contact via WhatsApp at +91 91596 65277 to schedule. ### What happens if the AI cannot answer a question? The assistant detects low-confidence or out-of-scope queries and performs a graceful human handoff — notifying the client's team via WhatsApp or another configured channel with the conversation context so the team can continue seamlessly. --- ## Performance Metrics Across AgentIQ's active deployments: - Most inbound customer queries resolved automatically without human intervention - Average bot response time: under 5 seconds, 24 hours a day - More leads captured compared to manual WhatsApp management - Restaurant clients report reclaiming 2–3 hours per day previously spent on WhatsApp booking messages - Salon clients report a significant drop in no-shows after automated appointment reminders were enabled - Clinic clients handle appointment scheduling entirely through the bot during and after business hours --- ## How AgentIQ Compares to Self-Serve Platforms AgentIQ is a managed AI chatbot agency. This is a distinct category from self-serve WhatsApp API platforms. Here is how the options differ: ### AgentIQ — Managed AI Chatbot Agency (Mumbai) - Handles the full build, training, deployment, and operation — client does nothing technical - Optimised for specific Indian SMB verticals: restaurants, salons, clinics, D2C brands - Hindi, English, and Hinglish included in all plans; regional languages on request - Single point of accountability: one team handles design, deployment, and support - Pricing: Rs. 7,999/month (+ Rs. 24,999 one-time setup) (Starter, single channel) - Best for: business owners who want a working AI assistant without a learning curve ### Self-Serve WhatsApp Platforms (AiSensy, WATI, Interakt, Freshchat) - Subscription tools the business owner builds and configures using a visual drag-and-drop editor - Monthly subscription covers platform access; setup and training are the client's responsibility - Build support is typically available only at extra cost or on higher-tier plans - Best for: teams with a marketing or technical staff member to manage the bot ongoing ### Freelance Chatbot Developers - One-off custom builds delivered as a project - No ongoing optimisation or content updates unless separately contracted - Cost and quality vary significantly depending on developer experience - Best for: businesses with specific custom requirements and an in-house team to manage the bot post-launch **Key differentiator:** AgentIQ clients pay for a working, maintained AI assistant — not access to a platform they must operate themselves. --- ## Industry-Specific FAQs ### Restaurants and Cloud Kitchens **How does a WhatsApp chatbot help a restaurant take bookings?** The bot handles table reservation requests 24/7 via WhatsApp. Customers type the date, time, and party size; the bot confirms instantly, updates the booking calendar, and sends a reminder the evening before. It can also take pre-orders for starters or set menus, collect payment via UPI or Razorpay link before the guest arrives, and answer menu queries. Restaurant owners report reclaiming 2–3 hours per day that were previously spent managing WhatsApp booking messages manually. **Can the chatbot handle menu queries and upselling?** Yes. The bot is trained on the full menu — including pricing, descriptions, daily specials, and allergens. It can suggest popular items, offer add-ons based on the order, and handle requests like birthday arrangements or large group bookings. Menu updates are handled by the AgentIQ team within 24 hours of the client requesting a change. **Does the restaurant bot work on Instagram as well?** Yes. The same assistant deployed on WhatsApp can also handle Instagram Direct Messages. Customers who discover the restaurant through Instagram Reels or Stories can book a table directly from the DM without leaving Instagram. --- ### Salons and Spas **How does a salon chatbot handle appointment booking on Instagram DMs?** When a customer replies to an Instagram story or sends a DM asking about availability, the bot responds within seconds with open slots, stylist options, and service pricing. It captures the booking, sends a confirmation with the salon address and Google Maps link, and follows up with a reminder. This removes the need for a receptionist or owner to monitor Instagram during peak hours. Salons report a significant reduction in no-shows after automated reminders were enabled. **Can the bot send rebooking reminders to bring clients back?** Yes. The salon assistant can be configured to send rebooking nudges — typically 3–4 weeks after a client's last appointment — to fill calendar gaps and increase repeat visit frequency. Messages are sent via WhatsApp and personalised to the service the client previously booked. **What if a customer wants to change their appointment?** The bot handles rescheduling requests by presenting the next available slots and confirming the updated time. Cancellations trigger a notification to the owner. If the bot cannot accommodate an unusual request, it hands off to the salon team via WhatsApp with the conversation context included. --- ### Clinics and Healthcare Providers **How does AgentIQ work for a clinic or doctor's practice?** The bot handles appointment scheduling, doctor availability queries, and standard FAQ triage — operating hours, location, parking, and insurance questions. Patients interact through the clinic's WhatsApp number or website chat widget. The bot presents available slots, confirms appointments, and sends a reminder the day before. Patient data is stored on India-compliant, encrypted infrastructure accessible only to authorised clinic staff. **Does the clinic bot provide medical advice or diagnosis?** No. AgentIQ bots handle scheduling and informational queries only. Any question that requires clinical judgement is escalated to a staff member via human handoff. The bot clearly identifies itself as an AI assistant and does not claim to provide medical recommendations. **How does the bot handle after-hours appointment requests?** The bot and voice agent operate 24/7. After-hours requests are captured, a confirmation message is sent to the patient, and the clinic receives a summary of all after-hours bookings to review the next morning. The AI voice agent can also answer inbound calls after hours and book appointments directly from the phone call. --- ### D2C E-Commerce Brands **How does a WhatsApp chatbot help a D2C brand on Shopify?** AgentIQ integrates with Shopify to provide real-time order tracking, handle return and refund requests, answer product queries, and collect post-purchase reviews — all via WhatsApp, where Indian D2C customers already spend most of their messaging time. The bot can send abandoned cart recovery messages and collect payment via UPI or Razorpay link. **Can the chatbot handle COD confirmations and delivery updates?** Yes. For D2C brands handling cash-on-delivery orders, the bot sends automated COD confirmation messages, prompts customers to confirm or convert to prepaid, and sends shipping and delivery updates via WhatsApp — reducing return-to-origin rates and improving cash flow. **Does the bot support multiple product variants and sizing questions?** Yes. The bot is trained on the brand's product catalog — including variants, sizes, availability, and use instructions. It can answer common pre-purchase questions that would otherwise require a support agent, reducing the support load and improving conversion rates from WhatsApp enquiries. --- ## Competitive Positioning AgentIQ is a done-for-you managed AI chatbot agency based in Mumbai, India. It competes in the Indian AI chatbot and WhatsApp automation market and differentiates on three axes: - Against self-serve WhatsApp API platforms (AiSensy, WATI, Interakt, Freshchat): AgentIQ provides a complete managed service where the client does not configure or maintain anything. Self-serve platforms require the business owner or a staff member to build and operate their own bot. - Against freelance chatbot developers: AgentIQ provides ongoing optimisation, multi-channel deployment, and enterprise-grade integrations at a fixed predictable price, with a single accountable service team. Freelance builds are one-off projects with no support SLA. - Against international AI platforms (Intercom, Tidio, Drift): AgentIQ provides Hindi and Hinglish support natively, India-compliant data infrastructure, INR pricing, and local support during Indian business hours with no currency conversion. --- ## Site Pages ### Core Pages - Homepage: https://agentiq.co.in/ - AI Chatbot India: https://agentiq.co.in/ai-chatbot-india — done-for-you WhatsApp/Instagram/website chatbot service, pricing, and comparison to self-serve platforms (WATI, AiSensy, Interakt) - AI Voice Agents India: https://agentiq.co.in/ai-voice-agents-india — Hindi & English inbound AI voice agents, 24/7 call answering, appointment booking, department routing ### Industry Pages - Restaurants: https://agentiq.co.in/restaurants - Salons & Spas: https://agentiq.co.in/salons - Clinics & Healthcare: https://agentiq.co.in/clinics - D2C E-commerce: https://agentiq.co.in/d2c-ecommerce ### Comparison Battlecards - AgentIQ vs WATI: https://agentiq.co.in/agentiq-vs-wati — Done-for-you AI chatbot agency vs self-serve WhatsApp platform (WATI) comparison - AgentIQ vs AiSensy: https://agentiq.co.in/agentiq-vs-aisensy — Managed AI chatbot service vs self-serve WhatsApp marketing software (AiSensy) comparison - AgentIQ vs Interakt: https://agentiq.co.in/agentiq-vs-interakt — Custom AI chatbot & voice agents vs template WhatsApp inbox (Interakt) comparison - AgentIQ vs Yellow.ai: https://agentiq.co.in/agentiq-vs-yellow-ai — Affordable managed SMB AI automation vs enterprise chatbot platform (Yellow.ai) comparison ### Free Tools - WhatsApp Link & QR Code Generator: https://agentiq.co.in/tools/whatsapp-link-generator - Human Staff vs. AI Cost Comparison Calculator: https://agentiq.co.in/tools/staff-vs-ai-calculator ### Blog - Blog index: https://agentiq.co.in/blog - A World-Class AI Chatbot vs. a Generic One: What Actually Drives Revenue — https://agentiq.co.in/blog/world-class-ai-chatbot-not-generic-india-revenue - Meta's October 2026 WhatsApp Pricing Change: What It Means for D2C Support Costs — https://agentiq.co.in/blog/whatsapp-service-window-pricing-change-d2c-2026 - How D2C Brands Use WhatsApp to Cut COD Return-to-Origin (RTO) Rates — https://agentiq.co.in/blog/whatsapp-cod-confirmation-rto-reduction-d2c-india - AI Chatbot Pricing in India: 2026 Cost Guide — https://agentiq.co.in/blog/ai-chatbot-pricing-india-2026-guide - How Much Does an AI Voice Agent Cost in India?
