₹2 or 50 paise? Run your WhatsApp agent on your own key
Ohanvi’s AI replies cost ₹2 on our key or 50 paise on your own OpenAI, Claude or Gemini key. The sums at 1,000 and 10,000 replies, and when each makes sense.
Building the platform this article is about
Every AI reply your WhatsApp agent sends needs a language model to write it. In Ohanvi you choose whose account pays for that model. On our key, a reply is ₹2, model included. On your own key from OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude) or Google (Gemini), a reply is 50 paise to Ohanvi, and your provider bills you for the model separately.
The sums
| AI replies a month | Our key | AI Packs | Your own key (Ohanvi’s part) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | ₹2,000 | ₹999 | ₹500 + your provider’s bill |
| 10,000 | ₹20,000 | ₹9,990 | ₹5,000 + your provider’s bill |
An AI Pack is ₹999 for 1,000 AI replies and lasts a month from purchase. Prices exclude GST. The WhatsApp message each reply goes out as is charged the same way whichever key writes it.
When our key makes sense
You do not want another account, another bill and another API key to look after. You are starting out, or your volume swings month to month. You want one invoice. And you can still cap it: AI Settings has a monthly and a per-task spending cap for AI on our key.
When your own key makes sense
Your volume is steady and high, and you already pay a model provider at a rate you have checked. Your company wants the model calls on its own account, for its own records or its own data agreements. Or you want a specific model your provider offers.
The trade-off is that the provider’s bill is now yours to watch. Ohanvi’s caps cover AI on our key; your provider’s own limits cover yours.
Switching
Add your key in AI Settings and choose the default model your drafts and replies use. The AI Usage screen shows which replies ran on our key and which on yours, so the switch is visible in the numbers.
