AiSensy is one of India's most popular WhatsApp platforms, with a free tier and no markup on Meta's rates — genuinely good value as a managed BSP. The difference with FlowBot isn't just price: AiSensy hosts your bot and campaigns in its cloud, while FlowBot lets you own the bot — export the code and bring any provider.

When to choose which
Choose AiSensy if you want a managed Indian BSP with broadcast campaigns, campaign analytics and native INR billing, and you're happy for the bot to live in their platform. Choose FlowBot if you want to design the bot for free, keep it deterministic, and export the source code so you're never locked in — connecting AiSensy-style delivery through your own Meta Cloud API number if you like.
Where FlowBot is not the answer
FlowBot is a free builder for the bot itself — it doesn't bundle a managed shared team inbox, a broadcast/campaign manager, or official Business Solution Provider (BSP) onboarding and support. You bring your own WhatsApp provider (Meta Cloud API, Twilio, Green API or Whapi.cloud). If you specifically need an all-in-one managed platform with agents, campaigns and hand-holding, a paid provider can be worth the money. If you want to build and own the bot logic for free, that's exactly what FlowBot is for.

Frequently asked questions
AiSensy already has a free plan — why use FlowBot?
AiSensy's free plan is a managed cloud where your bot and data live on their platform. FlowBot is free too, but you own the bot: you can export the complete source code and run it on your own server, and you connect your own WhatsApp provider. It's about ownership and lock-in, not only price.
Does FlowBot do broadcasts and campaigns like AiSensy?
No — broadcast campaigns and campaign analytics are AiSensy's strength and aren't built into FlowBot, which focuses on the conversation flow. Some teams use FlowBot for the bot and a BSP for broadcasts.
Can FlowBot use the official WhatsApp Cloud API like AiSensy?
Yes. FlowBot connects to Meta's official WhatsApp Cloud API directly (plus Twilio, Green API and Whapi), so you get the official channel without a platform in between.
