Built for South African teams
Time-zone overlap
South Africa is three and a half hours behind India, so our working days overlap for most of your morning and early afternoon.
The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA)
We design to POPIA's conditions for lawful processing: purpose limits, security safeguards and data-subject access, with data hosted in South African cloud regions when required. We sign NDAs before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in South African rand (ZAR) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
How it works
Week 1: discovery and design
We map your workflow, agree what success looks like, and show you a clickable design.
Weeks 2-3: build and integrate
We build the product, connect it to your systems, and demo working software every week.
Week 4: test and launch
We test with real cases, add monitoring and hand-off to humans where needed, then go live.
After launch: improve and scale
The same engineers stay on to support, tune and add features as usage grows.

What time-zone overlap do we get from South Africa?+
South Africa is three and a half hours behind India, so our working days overlap for most of your morning and early afternoon.
How do you handle the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA)?+

Which currency do you bill in, and what does it cost?+
We bill in South African rand (ZAR) or US dollars. Senior engineers typically cost $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, and fixed-scope projects such as an MVP in 25 to 30 days are quoted after a free consultation.
How much does it cost to build an AI chatbot?+
It depends on channels, integrations and how much the bot must do. Clarigo Infotech gives a scoped quote after a free consultation; simple website chatbots cost far less than voice bots or bots connected to several systems.
Can the chatbot be trained on our own documents and website?+
Yes. We ground the chatbot in your website, FAQs, documents and product data, so it answers from your information rather than guessing, and we test it with real questions before launch.
Can you build a WhatsApp chatbot?+
Yes. We build WhatsApp chatbots on the official WhatsApp Business Platform for support, bookings, order updates and lead capture, with hand-off to a human agent.
