An AiSensy alternative for
agentic e-commerce retention

Campaigns your team builds, or an agent that decides per customer.

Compare features

This page is for D2C and Shopify brands in India and South-East Asia already on AiSensy, or choosing between the two.

Both ship AI agents; the difference is who decides. In AiSensy your team sets up each broadcast and flow. Purands decides per customer whether to message, on which channel, when and with what offer.

Where AiSensy is the better choice

Three cases where we would tell you to stay:

  • You want to start small, today. A Free Forever plan, a no-card 14-day trial, and Basic at Rs 1,500 a month plus GST with unlimited contacts.
  • Click-to-WhatsApp ads drive your growth. A built-in Meta ads manager on every plan, Free included.
  • You sell in India, on Shopify. UPI payments inside WhatsApp, COD confirmation, pre-built cart and reorder flows, and a five-agent shared inbox from Basic.

Purands is a different bet; the table shows where the two diverge.

The Purands difference

Where Purands is different

Pillar 01
01

Per Customer, Not Per Broadcast

AiSensy's broadcasts run on choices your team makes: audience, template, send time. Purands decides each of those per customer, including whether to send at all.

How AiSensy does it
Segment → template → send time → broadcast
How Purands does it
Purands AI → Weighs this customer's intent and last contact, then acts.
Pillar 02
02

Every Channel, One Decision

AiSensy calls itself "One Complete platform for everything WhatsApp"; no email or SMS product appears on its site. Purands runs WhatsApp, email, SMS, push and an on-site assistant, picking the channel per customer.

Pillar 03
03

Offers Sized to the Customer

In AiSensy, your team sets the coupon, in the template or a per-contact variable. Purands sets each customer's discount by propensity, offering it only to those predicted to convert.

FAQ

Switching from AiSensy

Your number moves to Purands. AiSensy's own migration guide says Meta's process keeps the number and high-quality templates, not chat history. Contacts export to CSV, filterable by opt-in. Flows do not port: Purands has no flow builder.
Outbound. AiSensy's AI agent answers inbound chats, personalising suggestions; broadcasts go to the audience and time a marketer picks. Purands decides per customer whether to reach out, where, when and with what offer.
The channel is part of the decision. AiSensy's public materials describe no email channel. Purands picks WhatsApp, email, SMS or push per customer, and stops over-messaging across all of them.
Neither charges per contact, and WhatsApp message fees apply to both. AiSensy has flat tiers plus a paid AI agent add-on. Purands publishes no price and quotes to your scale, with AI agents and every messaging channel included.
