vsAThe AiSensy alternative with automations and AI in one plan
AiSensy is a WhatsApp marketing platform built in India, with a Free Forever plan, broadcasts, retargeting and a click-to-WhatsApp ads manager; chatbot flows and its AI agent are sold as add-ons. Recoverly bundles the automation builder, ready-made flows, an AI chatbot and a shared inbox into one $19 plan, with Meta billing its message fees to you directly.

Why teams move from AiSensy to Recoverly
The add-ons are included
AiSensy lists Chatbot Flows at $80/month and its AI Chat Agent at $50/month for 1,000 AI messages, on top of plans from $45/month (AiSensy USD pricing page, Sep 2026). Recoverly's builder, ready-made flows and AI chatbot are all in Lite at $19/month.
No agent seats to count
AiSensy's Basic and Pro plans include one owner and five agents, with extra agents at $20 each per month. Recoverly has no per-seat pricing, so adding a teammate costs nothing.
Coexistence without a support ticket
AiSensy supports coexistence, and its help center says the AiSensy team enables it for you. In Recoverly it is the default connection: sign in with Meta, scan a QR code, and the app keeps working.

Who AiSensy is right for
AiSensy is built for high-volume WhatsApp marketing, especially in India. Its Free Forever plan gives you the WhatsApp Business API, help applying for the blue tick and a click-to-WhatsApp ads manager at no cost. Paid plans add retargeting, campaign analytics, click tracking and sending speeds of up to 1,000 messages per second, with up to 200 agents, SSO and audit logs at the top end. AiSensy says it is trusted by more than 210,000 businesses in 68+ countries. If large broadcasts and ad-driven lead capture are your core use, it is built for exactly that.
Who switches to Recoverly
Teams that want automation and AI without stacking add-ons, stores that need timed cart reminders and COD confirmation out of the box, and businesses outside India that prefer a flat USD price that does not move with team size.
- $19/mo Lite: the automation builder, every ready-made flow, the AI chatbot, the shared inbox and campaigns.
- $49/mo Pro: adds integrations such as Klaviyo, Zapier and Shopify Flow.
- No seats and no caps: add teammates and contacts without changing plans.
- Meta's fees at cost, billed directly to your WhatsApp Business Account.
What you give up
Recoverly has no free plan with WhatsApp API messaging, no ads manager, and no SSO or audit logs. Campaigns go out in measured waves rather than at hundreds of messages per second, each workspace connects one number, and the integration list is shorter, with no native WooCommerce connector. The web app for businesses outside Shopify is in early access. If broadcast scale and ads are what you need, AiSensy is the stronger choice.
How to move from AiSensy without losing a conversation
Note what you rely on
List your approved templates, chatbot flows and audience tags in AiSensy. Cart, COD, order and review flows map to ready-made Recoverly automations; keyword bots and FAQ flows move to the AI chatbot.
Move the number
If AiSensy runs your number in coexistence, disconnect it there and connect it to Recoverly with Embedded Signup; the app keeps working. If it is API-only, release it from AiSensy's WhatsApp Business Account first. Check your prepaid wallet balance before you switch.
Recreate and go live
Submit your templates in Recoverly, where Meta approval is handled in the app, switch on the matching automations and run a test before you pause AiSensy.
