What Kiko does for US businesses

  • Answers from your own content

    Kiko reads your website, PDFs and price lists and answers only from them (retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG), with the page or file each answer came from. It doesn't make up a price or a phone number.

Languages your customers in the US write in

Most US customers write in English, and many write in Spanish. Kiko answers each in the language they use, from knowledge written in English, so you don't need a second version of your site.

  • English and Spanish

    A customer who writes in Spanish gets the answer in Spanish, from your English price list and policies.

  • And the rest

    Chinese, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Korean and more: Kiko replies in the customer's language. Try a few in the playground first.

  • Your voice

    Set the tone in the agent's settings, from casual for a coffee shop to careful for a law office.

  • Or always English

    Set the reply language to English and every answer comes back in English.

Where customers in the US reach you

In the US, customers mostly reach a business through its website, and text or call from there. WhatsApp is used too, especially by customers with family or business abroad, and Telegram less so.

  • Website chat first

    Most US buyers find you on your website. Kiko answers there while they're still reading, and books them in.

  • WhatsApp for international customers

    Customers who use WhatsApp, at home or abroad, can message your business number and get the same answers.

  • One inbox

    Website, WhatsApp and Telegram chats land in one list for your team, each with its full history.

What WhatsApp costs in the US

Meta's North America rates per delivered message, from its USD rate card effective 1 October 2026. Meta bills them to your own WhatsApp account; HeyKiko adds nothing to them.

ServiceReplies inside the 24-hour window, after 1,000 free a month per number$0.0034

For a home services company in Phoenix with 800 chats a month and about 4 replies each, 3,200 replies are 2,200 paid after the free 1,000: $7.48. Adding 1,200 reminders and updates ($4.08) and 400 offers ($10.00) brings Meta's bill to about $21.56 a month.
