Pricing & Engagement FAQs
How much does AI automation cost for a business in India and globally?
Targeted workflow automation starts from ₹50,000 to ₹1.5 lakh ($600–$1,800). Autonomous AI chatbot and multi-channel WhatsApp voice agents cost ₹1–3 lakh ($1,200–$3,600). Full custom CRM or ERP pipeline platforms range from ₹2–10 lakh ($2,400–$12,000). Enterprise multi-agent systems with self-healing architectures start at ₹10 lakh+ ($12,000+). All deployments feature zero recurring per-user licensing fees.
What is the typical return on investment (ROI) and payback period?
Artomation clients achieve a verified 300% average return on investment within 6 months. Most targeted workflow and WhatsApp lead automations reach full payback within 60 to 90 days by eliminating manual data entry, cutting operational overtime, and capturing high-intent leads 24/7.
Are there recurring monthly software license fees or hidden costs?
No. Unlike legacy RPA vendors (UiPath, Automation Anywhere) or SaaS giants (Salesforce, HubSpot) that charge per-seat monthly subscription taxes, Artomation builds open-architecture systems with 100% intellectual property ownership. You only pay standard underlying cloud infrastructure and LLM token usage (typically $20–$150/month) with zero agency markup.
How does Artomation's pricing compare to US or European agencies?
Artomation delivers enterprise-grade software engineering and cognitive AI systems at 70% to 85% lower cost than domestic US or UK development firms, while maintaining Silicon Valley architectural standards, 2–4 week delivery cycles, and dedicated global timezone coverage.
Can we start with a small pilot workflow before scaling up?
Yes. Over 60% of our enterprise clients begin with a targeted Tier 1 workflow automation (such as WhatsApp lead qualification, automated invoice extraction, or CRM sync) to validate ROI within 3 weeks before expanding into end-to-end departmental automation.
