02 · The fair take
The fair take on each platform
Choose Wati if you are a Gulf or South-Asia team that needs Wati's mature broadcast dashboards, Shopify automations and 14-day trial — and you accept per-conversation fees on top of the $49/mo seat price.
03 · Where Wutt fits
Where Wutt fits in this decision
Choose AiSensy if you run India-focused broadcast marketing at scale and want unlimited users on a cheap base plan with a free forever tier. Choose Wutt if you want booking, store chat, AI replies and a WhatsApp + Telegram inbox at a flat $11/mo — with no per-conversation fees and no add-on stack. If you mainly need either incumbent's marketing depth, keep it; if you need WhatsApp commerce with bookings, Wutt fits the rest.

05 · Migration path
Moving from Wati vs AiSensy to Wutt
- Export your contacts and conversation history from Wati or AiSensy (CSV).
- Create your Wutt workspace and connect the same WhatsApp number via Meta Cloud API or QR session.
- Re-submit your approved templates in Wutt; Meta keeps template approvals per business, not per provider.
- Import contacts, tags, and notes into Wutt.
- Rebuild your broadcast lists as Wutt campaigns and set up booking services and store connections.
- Run both tools in parallel for one week, then switch your wa.me links and QR codes to Wutt.
Most teams migrate in 3–5 days. Your WhatsApp number is not lost — it is connected to a new application, not moved.
06 · Proof
Verification
Teams switching from either platform to Wutt typically keep the same WhatsApp number and templates. The capability to watch in a migration is the billing model: both incumbents layer fees on top of their seat prices, while Wutt's flat plans include the features AiSensy sells as add-ons and Wati gates behind tiers.
Questions buyers ask before switching
No. Your number stays with you. You disconnect it from your current provider and connect it to Wutt using the same Meta Cloud API account or a QR session. Meta approvals for templates are tied to your business, not to either platform.
You can reuse the same template text, but you re-submit the templates inside Wutt so approvals are associated with your Wutt workspace. Most approvals take a few hours to a few days.
The mechanical part takes one to two hours: export contacts, connect the number, import templates. Most teams run both tools for a week before fully switching links and QR codes.
If you are Gulf/South-Asia based and rely on campaign analytics dashboards and Shopify automations, Wati is the mature choice. If you are India-based and broadcast at scale with unlimited users, AiSensy's base plan and free tier win. If neither profile is you, that is the Wutt case.
Wati charges per-conversation fees that include their markup; AiSensy recharges message credits separately at rates their page describes as Meta's. Wutt adds no markup — Meta bills you, and Wutt bills a flat plan price.
Wati has deep Shopify automation for Gulf/South-Asia sellers, and AiSensy has Shopify chatbot and cart integrations for India. Wutt connects WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, PrestaShop, OpenCart and Squarespace Commerce — if you live inside one incumbent's Shopify stack, test both before switching.
Wutt runs a $1 first-month trial. Wati offers a 14-day free trial and AiSensy a free forever plan. Compare all three side by side on the same number.
Wutt's flat plans include the booking workflow, store catalog-to-order chat, AI reply drafts and translation, and a Telegram inbox — features Wati gates behind tiers or misses, and AiSensy sells as $80–$99/mo add-ons.
