Head to head
Wati vs Ohanvi
If you are comparing Wati against other WhatsApp Business API platforms, the questions worth asking are the same ones for every vendor — what the plan fee buys, what a seat costs, and what happens to the per-message rate as you grow. The figures below are Wati’s own published numbers beside ours.

Wati does not publish a per-message rate, so a month’s total cost on Wati cannot be worked out from their pricing page — by us or by you. We have not filled the gap with an estimate: assuming Meta’s rate at cost would understate their price if they do add a markup, and would put a number in Wati’s mouth that Wati has not published.
Prices are the billed-monthly rate; quarterly and annual billing are cheaper. Amounts are rendered client-side and were read from the live pricing page rather than its HTML. Wati serves different figures by region: a re-read from outside India on 2026-09-02 showed additional users at $24/user/month on Pro and $69 on Business, which does not reconcile with the rupee figures below at any plausible exchange rate. The rupee figures are the India view and are what an Indian buyer sees; the seat prices in particular must be re-verified from an Indian IP.
Ohanvi’s plans
| Plan | Per month | Marketing message to India |
|---|---|---|
| Pay as you go | ₹0 | ₹1.0357 |
| Starter | ₹599 | ₹0.9926 |
| Growth | ₹1,099 | ₹0.9667 |
| Scale | ₹2,599 | ₹0.9321 |
| Pro | ₹5,099 | ₹0.9063 |
What a message costs
Wati: No per-message rate is published. Each plan states only “Additional charges apply for messages”.
Ohanvi: Meta’s published rate for the destination plus a percentage set by your plan, from 20% on Pay as you go down to 5% on Pro. A marketing message to India is ₹0.9667 on Growth. See Meta’s current rates.
Check every figure
Every Wati figure on this page was read from https://www.wati.io/pricing/ on 2026-09-02. We re-verify on a 90-day cycle and the build fails if the data goes stale. If a number here is wrong, the vendor’s page is the authority, not us.

Neither table answers what you would actually pay. The calculator takes your message volume and seat count and prices every Ohanvi plan on it.
Questions this answers
- Is Wati or Ohanvi cheaper?
- It depends on your volume, because the monthly fee and the per-message rate both count and they pull in opposite directions. Wati publishes no per-message rate, so a month’s total on Wati cannot be worked out from their pricing page, by us or by you. We have not filled that gap with an estimate. Their published fees sit beside ours in the tables above. Ohanvi is ₹0 a month on Pay as you go and every plan carries every feature. The honest way to settle it is to put your own message volume and seat count through the pricing calculator rather than trust either company’s headline.
- What is the best Wati alternative?
- That depends on what you are replacing. The questions worth asking any WhatsApp Business API vendor are the same ones: what the plan fee buys, whether features are gated to higher tiers, what an extra seat costs, and what the per-message rate is. Ohanvi’s answer is that every plan carries every feature, including the ₹0 one. Ask Wati the same four and compare the answers you get, not the answers we wrote on their behalf.
- Does Ohanvi publish its WhatsApp message rates?
- Yes — every plan, every template category and every country Meta prices, on the pricing page and in the calculator. Messages are billed at Meta’s own published rate plus a percentage set by your plan, so any invoice can be reconciled against Meta’s public rate card.
