What is Gupshup?

Gupshup is a conversational automation platform that helps businesses build and manage AI-powered chatbots for customer interactions across acquisition, marketing, sales, and support. It includes ready-made conversation templates, support for popular messaging channels like WhatsApp, SMS, and Google’s Business Messaging, and unified customer profiles that keep all customer data in one place. The platform is built with enterprise-grade security.

Gupshup can automate about 80% of common customer queries, route questions intelligently, and scale to handle high support volumes. It also supports direct orders and payments through conversations. A few limitations to note: it doesn’t currently support languages other than English, there’s no mobile app yet, and its ACE LLM has a learning curve.
