A transparent comparison so you can make the right choice.
Why teams switch from WATI to SendHub
No message markup โ ever
WATI charges a 20% markup on top of Meta's per-message fees. That means for every $1,000 you spend on WhatsApp conversations, you're paying $1,200. At scale, this adds up to thousands per year in hidden fees. SendHub passes Meta's rates through at cost with zero markup.
Personal WhatsApp support
WATI only supports WhatsApp Business API numbers. SendHub is the only platform that also supports your personal WhatsApp number โ so you can automate conversations on the number your customers already know, without switching to a business account.
AI that actually understands context
WATI's KnowBot is keyword-based with a GPT layer on top. SendHub's AI is context-aware from the ground up โ it reads your entire conversation history, references your knowledge base with cascading scope (org, business, channel), and handles multi-turn conversations naturally. No scripted flows required.
Real cost comparison
5 agents, 2,000 conversations/month, 500 AI-handled
