# Aivastark vs Interakt

> Aivastark vs Interakt: Interakt's AI Agents are a $74.99 add-on to plans from $55; Aivastark's $39 Starter includes AI replies on WhatsApp and Instagram.

Interakt, from Jio Haptik, is a WhatsApp commerce platform: campaigns, Shopify flows, a shared inbox with unlimited agents, and AI agents you can add. Aivastark is an AI agent first, answering customers across messaging apps and your website and handing off to your team.

## Aivastark or Interakt: which should you choose?

Choose Interakt if you want unlimited agents and contacts, WhatsApp campaigns, Shopify order flows such as COD-to-prepaid, and a sales CRM in one tool. Choose Aivastark if you want the AI included rather than added: Interakt's AI Agents are a $74.99 monthly add-on to its Growth ($55) or Advanced ($69) plans, while Aivastark's $39 Starter includes 5,000 AI credits and answers on WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and Telegram. Aivastark doesn't send broadcasts or templates.

**Choose Interakt if:**

- You want unlimited agents and contacts on every plan
- You run WhatsApp campaigns and Shopify order flows
- You want a sales CRM in the same tool

**Choose Aivastark if:**

- You want AI replies included, not a $74.99 add-on
- You want Messenger and Telegram answered too
- You want Meta to bill your message fees directly

## In four figures

- **$39 vs $129.99**: a month for AI on WhatsApp: Aivastark Starter against Interakt Growth plus AI Agents
- **Unlimited**: agents on Interakt plans; Aivastark has 1–10 seats
- **Two weeks**: Interakt trial with no card; Aivastark's paid trial is 7 days with a card
- **$0.028**: Interakt's listed price for a US marketing message

## Side by side

Interakt figures checked October 2026. Aivastark allowances are counted in credits: a standard reply is 1 credit and a gpt-4o reply 10; images, voice and tool steps add more.

## Where Interakt is the better choice

Stated plainly, because a comparison that wins every row is an advert:

- Unlimited agents and contacts on every plan, which matters for a big support or sales team.
- WhatsApp campaigns and ready Shopify flows: abandoned checkout, order updates, win-back and COD-to-prepaid. Aivastark builds none of these.
- A sales CRM in the same product, from $49 a month.
- A two-week trial with no card; Aivastark's paid-plan trial is 7 days and asks for one.
- Backed by Jio Haptik, with a large Shopify install base (298 reviews on the Shopify App Store).

## Commerce platform or support agent

Interakt is strongest when WhatsApp is your sales channel: you send campaigns, recover checkouts, push COD orders to prepaid and keep a CRM of who bought what, with as many agents as you need.

Aivastark is strongest when the problem is the inbox: the same questions about price, delivery and stock, on WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger, at 2am. It answers from your own content and catalogue and hands the chat to a person when needed. It doesn't send campaigns.

## What the AI costs

On Interakt the AI is an add-on: WhatsApp AI Agents cost $74.99 a month on top of Growth ($55) or Advanced ($69), so AI on WhatsApp starts at $129.99 a month on monthly billing.

On Aivastark the AI is the plan: $39 Starter includes 5,000 credits and every messaging app, and a standard reply is one credit. Past the allowance a paid plan bills overage rather than switching the agent off.

## WhatsApp message fees

Meta has charged per message since July 2025, and its documentation says service messages are charged from 1 October 2026 at the utility rate. That applies to every tool here, Aivastark included.

Aivastark connects your own WhatsApp Business account, so Meta bills you directly at Meta's rates. Interakt resells messages at its own listed rates, such as $0.028 for a US marketing message, and lists "No Markup Charges" only on Enterprise.

## Questions
