## Who we build AI chatbots and automation for
AI Connects is our name for AI chatbots and automation. It is for startups, small businesses and enterprises whose teams keep answering the same questions and repeating the same tasks, and would rather have AI handle them.
A common job is a chatbot that answers routine questions about timings and prices when your team is busy. Other jobs are repetitive work such as emails, data entry, appointment scheduling and customer support. AI tools can also write content, generate reports and respond to queries, and AI agents can help you collect, analyse and visualise business data.
If you are not sure a chatbot is your next step, our guide [Digital Transformation in 2026: SEO, GEO and AEO](https://cerescanopus.com/why-your-business-needs-digital-transformation-in-2026/) suggests starting with a clear website, accurate listings and honest answers to customer questions, and considering a chatbot when you are ready. Whatever your stage, we begin with a free consultation and write the scope, the timeline and the price in a proposal before anything is built.
Routine questions Customer support Appointment scheduling Emails Data entry Reports and content Workflows Business data
## How a chatbot or automation project runs
- Discussion A free consultation to understand your goals, users and budget, and which questions or tasks you want the AI to take over.
- Analysis We analyse your requirements and define a clear scope: what the bot or the automation handles, and where it runs, for example on WhatsApp or your website.
- Proposal A clear proposal with scope, timeline and price. No work starts before you approve it.
- Execution The chatbot or the automation is built to the agreed scope, with regular demos along the way.
- QA and testing Quality checks on how the bot answers and what it automates, then your feedback and revisions.
- Deployment The bot goes live on the agreed channels. Launch support, then maintenance by phone, WhatsApp and email.
Agile delivery: regular demos, quick feedback and room to adapt as we build.
## What AI chatbots and automation cost
AI chatbots and automation with Ceres Canopus start from ₹15,000. The final price depends on what you want the bot or the automation to do. The price is written in the proposal with the scope and the timeline, and nothing begins until you approve it.
What you need | Price | What decides it
Chatbot with workflow automation, for WhatsApp or your website | From ₹15,000 | Our pricing plan lists AI-powered conversations, multi-platform integration, custom workflow automation, 24/7 customer engagement, conversation reports and more. The channels it runs on, the number of questions and tasks it handles, the connections to other systems and the AI tools used decide the final price.
### What changes the price
- Channels. Each channel, such as WhatsApp, your website or a voice system, has to be set up and tested, so a bot on one channel is a smaller job than a bot on several.
- Number of tasks. A bot that answers a few routine questions is a smaller job than one that also handles emails, data entry, appointment scheduling or customer support.
- Connections to other systems. A bot that works on its own is simpler than one that has to connect to other software you use, because each connection has to be built and tested.
- AI tools used. A ready-to-use AI tool with simple integration is a smaller job than a custom AI agent designed around your business operations.
### What a quote should cover
The channels it covers, the questions and tasks the bot handles, whether it connects to your other systems, any fees for the AI tools or services behind it, testing, and support after launch. Quotes differ from one provider to the next, so ask what is included in the price and what you would pay for later. Ask us the same.

## Questions about AI chatbots and automation
Can you put a chatbot on WhatsApp?
Yes. We integrate AI into WhatsApp, websites and voice systems, so that it can interact with your users naturally. WhatsApp and web bots start from ₹15,000, and the proposal sets out the scope, the timeline and the price before you approve anything.
What can an AI chatbot or automation do for my business?
It can take repetitive work off your team. A chatbot can answer routine questions about timings and prices when your team is busy, and automation can handle work such as emails, data entry, appointment scheduling and customer support. AI tools can also write content, generate reports, analyse user behaviour and respond to queries.
What is a custom AI agent?
A custom AI agent is an AI tool designed for your specific business operations, from a chatbot to a workflow bot. It is trained to perform tasks such as automating customer support, managing workflows or analysing data. We start with a free consultation and write the scope in the proposal.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Our ready-to-use AI tools come with simple integration, and no code is required. When you need something designed around your operations, we build the custom AI agent for you. Either way, we start with a free consultation about your goals, users and budget.
How much does an AI chatbot cost?
AI chatbots and automation with Ceres Canopus start from ₹15,000. The starting price lists AI-powered conversations, multi-platform integration, custom workflow automation, 24/7 customer engagement and conversation reports. The final price depends on the channels, the number of tasks, whether the bot connects to other systems and the AI tools used. The proposal states it together with the scope and the timeline, and no work starts until you approve it.
How does a chatbot project run, and how long does it take?
It runs in six steps, and the timeline depends on the scope, so it is written in the proposal before you approve anything. The steps are discussion, analysis, proposal, execution, QA and testing, and deployment. Regular demos let you see progress while we build, and after launch we offer maintenance by phone, WhatsApp and email.
Can you make ChatGPT or Google mention my business?
No, nobody can promise that ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude or Google will mention or cite a business, because that is up to them. What we can do is GEO and AEO. GEO (generative engine optimisation) helps AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude find, understand and describe your business accurately, and AEO (answer engine optimisation) writes your pages so that answer features can take a clear answer from them. Both overlap with SEO (search engine optimisation), and all three are part of our [digital marketing](https://cerescanopus.com/digital-marketing/) service. A chatbot on your own website or WhatsApp is a separate tool: it answers your customers' questions.
Can you build a chatbot for a business outside Thane?
Yes. Our office is in Thane, but we work with clients across India and abroad and deliver everything online. We hold calls, demos and project reviews by phone, video call and WhatsApp. If you are in Thane, Mumbai or Navi Mumbai, we can also meet in person.
How do I start?
You can call or WhatsApp +91 983 375 1206, write to info@cerescanopus.com or use the [contact page](https://cerescanopus.com/contact-us/). We start with a free consultation about your goals, users and budget, then write the proposal, and nothing is built until you approve it. Replies usually come the same day.
