A WhatsApp bot for a business in Israel costs from ₪9,500 to build with us, plus an optional ₪450/month care plan. Fixed price per scope, plus VAT as required by law, built only on Meta's official Cloud API.

That is the number. Now the parts around it: what moves the price, what is included, and what to ask any vendor before you sign.

What determines the price of a WhatsApp bot?

Integrations. A bot that only answers FAQs is the baseline. A bot that connects to your CRM, sheets, or order system requires real integration work, and that is what moves the price. With us, the base logs every lead with an alert on each one, and connecting your CRM is an optional module, priced separately.

Number of conversation flows. Every flow (lead intake, meeting booking, order status, pricing questions) is designed, built, and tested separately. A business that needs three core flows pays less than one that needs ten. For what those flows absorb in practice, see how a WhatsApp bot replaces the support queue.

Hebrew and English. A bot that actually works well in Hebrew is not the market default. For us it is part of the base: automatic language detection, replies in the customer's language.

Human handoff. The rule for “when does the bot stop and hand over to a person” is the difference between a bot that helps and a bot that infuriates. Designing the handoff path is part of the work, not an add-on.

Why a “cheap” bot costs more

Some vendors build on unofficial libraries that impersonate the WhatsApp app. It is cheaper to set up, and the business number typically gets banned within weeks. A business built on one channel cannot afford that gamble.

We build only on Meta's official Cloud API: the number is never at risk. Meta charges per message it delivers, and from October 1, 2026 that includes service replies to a customer who messaged you, at the same per-market rate as utility messages. You pay Meta's rate card directly, with no reseller markup on top.

One more pricing trap: many vendors resell WhatsApp access through a BSP and add a markup on every message. We broke down the real BSP fee stack versus direct Cloud API separately.

What ₪9,500 includes with us

  • A WhatsApp agent on the official Cloud API, connected to your business number
  • A lead log with an alert on every lead
  • Conversation flows for your core scenarios, with human handoff built in
  • Hebrew and English, 24/7
  • ₪450/month: monitoring, monthly tuning, and quality control

CRM connection, meeting booking, and the other modules are priced separately, by the system and the scope.

Realistic timeline from signing: two to four weeks, including Meta approvals, build, testing, and a soft launch.

What to ask any vendor before you buy

  1. Which API is the bot built on? If the answer is not “Meta's official Cloud API”, keep walking.
  2. Does the bot connect to my CRM? Which one exactly?
  3. What happens when the bot does not know the answer?
  4. Who monitors the bot after launch, and what does the monthly care include?
