- You also want a Telegram bot.
When Leadsales is the better fit
- Your priority is a sales pipeline: Leadsales organizes leads into funnels and stages.

- You also want Facebook Messenger and Instagram DMs in the same inbox today.
Pricing
Simplifybot's plans are $39 (Basic) and $79 (Business) a month, with extra conversations at $0.03 and Enterprise priced on request; see pricing. Leadsales publishes three plans billed monthly: Básico $97 (no WhatsApp API or campaigns), Profesional $133 and Avanzado $247, with 10–20% off for longer billing periods and no permanence. Leadsales states there's no WhatsApp API activation fee. On both tools, Meta's per-message fees for WhatsApp apply separately when they're due.
AI
On Simplifybot, the AI that answers your customers is the core of the product and is included in every plan. Leadsales offers Lead Agent, an AI agent that answers, qualifies and follows up with leads; according to its pricing page, it's free for the first month on Profesional and Avanzado and then costs from $87 (Starter) to $793 (Scale) a month depending on volume.
Our take
Both run on the official WhatsApp Business API. If you need a CRM with funnels and bulk campaigns, Leadsales is built for that. If what you need is an AI assistant that answers every message, books appointments and hands off to your team at a lower entry price, Simplifybot is the simpler choice.
