Why businesses switch

A clearer WhatsApp workflow for Kenya businesses

Start with the questions your customers already ask. Give your team a clearer way to handle replies, customer details and follow-ups.

Your chats handled by AI

Trained on your products, prices, stock and delivery zones, our agent answers every message, at any hour. It brings you in when there is a real decision to make.

→ You stop losing the customer who messaged at 11pm

Smart customer management

Customers are sorted and tagged automatically by what they asked about, where they are and what they bought. Search and analyse their data in charts, tables and reports.

→ You find any customer in seconds, and see what actually sells

Send to thousands at once, and see who read it

Bulk sending on normal WhatsApp gets numbers banned. DeskoAI uses approved templates to reach customers at large volumes, with reports on who read and replied.

→ Thousands reached, and your number stays safe

A queue of who to chase first

Most sales die from silence, not a no. Unanswered customers sit in one queue, scored by waiting time, replies and previous purchases. Work from the top down.

→ Nobody waits a week because you forgot them

One by one

Explore DeskoAI for your Kenya team

Every benefit, with the screen that goes with it: what customers receive and what you see on the dashboard. Your own WhatsApp app looks exactly as it does today.

Set the reply rules for your Kenya business

Give AI clear instructions about when to answer, when to wait for your team and what it must never say. Use Africa/Nairobi for business hours and check English and Kiswahili examples from your own customers. Keep delivery promises and payment instructions tied to approved information.

  • “If nobody has replied in an hour, answer them yourself”
  • Complaints, refunds and big discounts always go to a human
  • No developer needed — you write it, we set it live

App vs API

Hard limits in the app that no workaround fixes

These are hard limits in the WhatsApp Business app. Coexistence lets you keep the left column and gain the right one.

And these switch on the day you connect

Things that were simply not possible before, now sitting on the number you already have.

  • Real forms inside the chatBookings, applications and order forms open in the conversation itself. No “click this link”, which is exactly where customers drop off.
  • Buttons and menus instead of typing“Track my order · See prices · Talk to a person” as tappable options. It matters on a cheap phone with weak signal.
  • Ads you can actually measureClick-to-WhatsApp ads tied to the conversation and the sale that followed, so you stop funding the advert that only brings tyre-kickers.
  • Live answers from your own systemOrder status, stock levels and account balances pulled straight from your database while the customer waits.
  • Reminders that recover moneyAppointments, renewals, repayments and expiring quotes — sent on schedule, without anyone remembering to send them.
  • Login and verification codesOne-time codes delivered on WhatsApp for anyone with a portal, member account or online order to confirm.
  • Segmentation past twenty labelsThe app stops at twenty labels. Slice your customers by product, area, spend or last purchase instead, and message the right ones.
  • A verified business identityYour business name in place of an unknown number, and we submit you for the official badge where Meta's criteria are met.
Why they choose you

Make customer enquiries easier to handle in Kenya

Your competitor will reply tomorrow, ask them to repeat their order number, and quote a different price than last time. You won't.

⚡

An answer now, not tomorrow

The question they asked at 11pm is answered at 11pm, while they still care about it and before they message your competitor.

🔁

They never repeat themselves

Whoever picks up the chat can already see the whole history. Nobody is asked for their order number three times.

🎯

The same answer every time

Price, warranty and delivery do not change depending on which member of staff happened to reply.

🛠️

They can serve themselves

Track a parcel, check a balance, reschedule an appointment — without waiting behind anyone or calling during office hours.

👆

Buttons instead of typing

Tap an option rather than compose a message. On a cheap phone with weak signal, that is the difference between an order and a bounce.

🧾

Proof, in writing

The confirmation, the price agreed and the delivery date stay in the thread, searchable months later. Fewer arguments for everyone.

✅

They can see you are real

A verified business name instead of an unknown number — worth a great deal in a market where everyone has been burned by a fake seller.

⏰

Reminders they actually wanted

Appointment tomorrow, delivery today, payment due Friday. The things people are genuinely relieved to be reminded about.

📱

The number they already have

Nothing to update, nothing to re-save, no “we have moved to a new line” message for them to miss and lose you.

The AI behind the desk

It sells like your best person, at 3am, for everyone at once

Our agent reads the actual question, checks your real prices and stock, and closes or qualifies the customer. It steps aside when a human would do better.

  • It never invents a priceTrained on your price list, delivery zones, warranty terms and past chats — so what it quotes is what you charge.
  • It speaks how your customers speakEnglish, Kiswahili or Sheng, matching whatever they opened with. Customers relax, and relaxed customers buy.
  • It hands over before it loses the saleComplaints, hard negotiation and big orders go to a human immediately, with the whole conversation already summarised.
  • Nothing is left sitting in a chatName, product, location and budget land in your CRM or Google Sheet automatically, the moment the customer mentions them.
  • You are always in controlSet the tone, the discount limits and the topics it must never touch. Read every conversation, correct it any time, switch it off in one click.

What it is worth to you

Practical WhatsApp workflows for Kenya businesses

A Nairobi shop may need to explain collection points, while a Nakuru service team may need to qualify new enquiries. Use your actual delivery areas, opening hours and confirmed availability in the replies.

🛍️

Online shops & boutiques

Orders taken and paid for while you sleep, and the cart nobody finished gets one polite nudge instead of being forgotten.

🏠

Real estate & agents

Stop driving across town for people who were never buying. Budget and area are qualified before the viewing is booked.

🏥

Clinics & wellness

Reminders that cut no-shows, and a front desk that answers booking questions at 10pm without anyone staying late.

🎓

Schools & colleges

Every admissions enquiry answered the same day, and fee reminders that reach parents without a single phone call.

🚚

Logistics & delivery

“Where is my parcel?” answers itself all day, so your team can dispatch instead of typing the same reply.

🏦

Saccos & microfinance

Balance and loan-status questions handled instantly at scale, and repayment reminders that actually get read.

🍽️

Restaurants & hotels

Bookings captured during the dinner rush, when the phone is ringing and nobody can get to it.

🚗

Car dealers & spares

“Do you have this part?” answered in seconds — before the customer asks the next shop on their list.

✈️

Travel & tours

Packages quoted the moment interest is hot, deposits collected in the chat, and departure reminders sent on their own.

For businesses in Kenya

Keep everyday business questions moving

A customer asks about stock, collection or delivery while your team is helping someone else. Prepare accurate product information and agree which questions can be answered automatically and which should reach a person.

Prepare delivery and collection answers

List the areas you actually serve, delivery conditions and collection hours. Keep those details current when your business changes.

Test English and Swahili enquiries

Use the phrases your customers send, including questions that mix languages. Review the answers with your team before extending the workflow.

Know which plan fits the work

Compare the workspace and AI features you need. Review current Kenyan plan pricing and confirm any separate WhatsApp messaging charges.

Questions

Questions from businesses in Kenya

What exactly is “coexistence”? +
Coexistence lets one number run on the WhatsApp Business app and Cloud API at the same time. Staff keep replying from the phone while your team inbox, AI agent and automations work on the same number.
What stops the AI making things up? +
AI only has what you gave it: prices, policies and delivery zones. It does not guess or promise what you cannot deliver; it passes anything outside that to a person. Most owners review and correct it for the first week.
What happens to the chats my staff answer on their phones? +
They appear in the shared inbox and count towards reporting. Your team keeps working the way they always have, while you get visibility over all of it.
Will I lose my chat history and contacts? +
No. Roughly the last six months of chats and your contacts sync into the inbox when you link the number. Older archives stay on the phone.
Can my staff still use the app on their phones? +
Yes. Voice notes, status updates, groups and personal follow-ups keep working. Phone replies appear in the shared inbox; messages sent by AI or dashboard agents appear on the phone.
Do I need a new number or a new SIM? +
No. Keep the number already on your shopfront, vehicles and Instagram bio. Nothing for your customers to change.
How long does setup take? +
Most businesses are live within 48 hours, or the same day if Business Manager is verified. Meta verification can add a few working days. We prepare the documents and chase it for you.
What do I need to have ready? +
An active WhatsApp Business app number, Business Manager account (we can create one), registration certificate or KRA PIN, and a website or active social page.
What does Meta charge on top? +
Meta Business Platform charges depend on the delivered-message category and recipient market. The 24-hour customer service window controls when non-template replies can be sent; it does not make every reply free. Check Meta's current API pricing and ask us to confirm the costs for your workflow.
Can I bulk-message my customer list? +
Yes, with opted-in customers and Meta-approved templates. Bought lists can damage your quality rating and restrict your number. We build compliant opt-in into your flows and monitor your quality rating.
Does the AI understand Kiswahili and Sheng? +
Yes, including code-switched messages. AI replies in the customer's language, with the tone you choose. Every reply is reviewable, and you can correct it any time.
Who owns the number and the data? +
You do. The account is registered under your business. If you leave, we export your data and hand it over. We process data under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.
Is there a contract lock-in? +
Starter is KES 2,450 with monthly billing, or KES 11,400 per year (about KES 950/month equivalent). Kenyan subscriptions are billed in KES. Annual totals are paid upfront. Applicable WhatsApp message charges are separate.
