Your customers are on WhatsApp. Now your whole business can be.

Keychat builds custom conversation bots that plug into the systems you already run and answer with live data. Customers order, book, pay, claim and query in the chat they already have open.

Four ready-made products. One platform underneath.

Each one packages the Keychat platform for a vertical, with the conversations, integrations and pricing already worked out. Live in days, not months.

Turnkey packages with predictable cost

Each product ships with its flows and integrations already built, and the setup and running costs agreed before we start. You know what you’ll pay from day one. No long contracts, no surprise invoices.

Customisable to fit your business exactly

A product is the starting point, not the limit. Flows, wording, menus and integrations are tuned to how you already operate, and anything the package doesn’t cover, we build in.

None of these quite fit? We build custom.

Your customers already run their lives on WhatsApp. Your systems don’t.

Orders, bookings, claims and questions arrive as messages. Then somebody retypes them into a POS, a CRM or a policy system, and the customer waits. Every handoff costs time, and every unanswered chat costs a customer.

Keychat connects the chat to the systems behind it, so the message is the transaction.

Trusted by the best in the business

Built around your business, not a template.

Every Keychat bot is designed around your real customer journeys. It talks to your existing systems over their APIs, fetches live data the moment a customer asks, and hands over to a person when it should.

How we work
What’s under the hood
Custom conversation design
We map the conversations your customers actually have and build the flows to match, in your tone of voice and in the languages your customers use.
Integrates with anything
POS, CRM, payment gateways, booking diaries, policy admin, accounting and your own API. If it has an interface, we can connect to it.
Dynamic, data-driven replies
Answers are fetched live from your systems and third parties at the moment of asking: order status, balances, claim progress, availability, pricing.

Your systems stay.
The chat becomes the front door.

Keychat sits between WhatsApp and your back office. Orders, bookings, payments and queries move between them without anyone retyping a thing.

  • Two-way sync with POS, CRM and booking systems
  • Payments collected in the chat, settled to you
  • Live lookups against your APIs and third-party data
  • Human handover when the bot should step aside

Transact. Serve. Grow.

Three jobs every business has, handled inside one WhatsApp thread.

Transact

Orders, bookings, tickets, quotes and subscriptions, paid for in the chat and pushed straight into the system that fulfils them.

Serve

Answers around the clock: where is my order, what does my policy cover, when is the technician arriving. Live data, then a human when it matters.

Grow

Campaigns, loyalty, reminders and referrals that go out on WhatsApp and get read, to a customer list you own outright.

Pick a product, or have one built.

Either way you get the same platform, the same integrations and the same team running it for you.

Turnkey

Start with a ready-made product

Feast, Artisan, Events and Finance are the platform packaged for a vertical. The flows are proven, the integrations exist, and pricing is published on each page.

  • Live in days, set up by us
  • Simple published pricing, no long contracts
  • Every feature from day one
See the products
Custom build

Your flows, your systems, your rules

For anything the products don’t cover: a conversation designed around your process and wired into whatever you already run, from a legacy database to a modern API.

  • Scoped together on a short call
  • Integrations built to your systems, not around them
  • Managed, monitored and improved after launch
Scope a custom build

Custom builds, priced in the open.

A free hour to scope it, a once-off build, and a monthly platform fee. All prices exclude VAT.

01 · Workshop
Free
One hour, no obligation

We sit down with you to gather requirements, map the conversations your customers actually have, and list the systems the bot needs to talk to.

02 · Build
from R9,900
ex VAT, once-off per build

Conversation design, the bot itself and the integrations it needs. The price scales with how complex your use case is and how many systems we connect.

03 · Platform
from R2,000*
ex VAT, per month

Access to every feature on the platform, with hosting and monitoring included. Starts at R2,000 and scales with your usage.

AI conversations are billed on LLM tokens: R64 per million input tokens and R320 per million output tokens. A typical customer chat works out to roughly R1.50 per conversation. WhatsApp message fees from Meta apply separately.

* This monthly fee applies to fully custom builds only. Turnkey solutions (Feast, Artisan, Events and Finance) have their own pricing packages, published on each product page.
