Where Wati is stronger, and where Adya is

We make Adya, so read this section as our view. We have tried to give the other side its due.

Where Wati wins

  • A mature WhatsApp toolkit: broadcasts, templates, chatbot flows and a large integration library.
  • Built for e-commerce marketing on WhatsApp, with click-to-WhatsApp ad support.
  • Instagram and other social channels alongside WhatsApp.
  • A long track record and a large customer base across India and beyond.

Where Adya wins

  • AI that resolves the conversation end to end — order status, bookings, answers — then hands off with full history.
  • Voice calls from the same agent: a customer can call and continue on WhatsApp in one thread.
  • Usage counted per conversation (one customer, one channel, 24 hours), not per AI credit.
  • No markup on Meta's WhatsApp rates; Meta bills you directly.
  • Website chat and email included in the same plan.
