WhatsApp Chatbot Development

YourcustomersarealreadyonWhatsApp.Answerthemthere.

We build WhatsApp chatbots and automations on the official WhatsApp Business Platform: enquiry capture, appointment booking, order and payment updates, reminders and AI answers from your own documents, connected to the software you already use.

What a WhatsApp bot does

From a shared phone to a system

Most businesses in Maharashtra already sell on WhatsApp, usually from one phone that three people share. Enquiries are missed after hours, nobody knows which lead was answered, and reminders are typed by hand. A chatbot on the WhatsApp Business API fixes the routine part: it replies instantly, collects the details, books the slot or raises the ticket, and hands over to a person when the question needs one.

We use WhatsApp automation in our own products. Shiksha CRM sends fee reminders, notices and results to parents automatically. The same building blocks work for clinics, coaching classes, real estate teams, dealers and D2C brands.

How it works

What the setup involves

  • Official API, not a workaround

    We set up the WhatsApp Business Platform with your verified Meta Business account. Unofficial tools that automate the phone app get numbers banned.

  • Message templates

    Business-initiated messages need templates approved by Meta. We write and submit them and plan around the approval rules.

  • Meta’s message charges

    Meta bills for template messages by category and country, and the rates change. These charges are paid to Meta and are separate from our build fee.

  • Integrations

    CRM, ERP, Shopify, Google Sheets, payment gateways and your own database through APIs.

  • Team inbox & hand-over

    A shared inbox so several people can reply from one number, with the bot stepping aside when a person takes over.

  • Consent & opt-out

    Opt-in records and a working stop keyword, as WhatsApp policy requires.

With NioDelta, AI chatbot and automation projects cost ₹2,00,000 – ₹8,00,000 (excl. GST) depending on flows and integrations. Meta’s per-message charges are billed separately by Meta.

The free app suits one person replying by hand. For automated replies, several agents on one number, integrations and bulk notifications you need the WhatsApp Business Platform (API).

Usually yes. A number can be moved to the API, but it can then no longer be used in the ordinary WhatsApp app. We plan the switch so no conversations are lost.

Not if you use the official API, send approved templates to people who opted in, and keep quality high. Bans come from unofficial bulk tools and unsolicited messages.

Yes. Flows and AI answers can run in English, Hindi and Marathi, and the bot can reply in the language the customer writes in.

Yes. We connect the bot to your systems through their APIs, or to a shared sheet or database where no API exists.
