Interakt is a WhatsApp Business platform made by Jio Haptik Technologies Limited. It gives small and mid-size businesses a shared team inbox, campaigns, chatbots, commerce tools and a sales CRM on WhatsApp and Instagram. RCS is offered for campaigns and as a fallback: when a WhatsApp message fails, Interakt resends it over RCS. It says more than 50,000 businesses use it, in markets from India and Indonesia to Brazil and the UAE.
US prices are billed quarterly: Starter $69, Growth $149 and Advanced $189 a quarter; Enterprise is quoted. WhatsApp template messages cost extra by type and region, and WhatsApp AI agents add $74.99 on Growth and Advanced. RCS bills only delivered messages.
Interakt has no iMessage, and no SMS sending was found; its RCS mainly backs up WhatsApp. Linq's main channels are iMessage, RCS and SMS, with WhatsApp as a separate beta API. Interakt is an app for business teams on quarterly plans, while Linq is a developer API with a flat fee from $260 a month.
Small and mid-size businesses that sell and support customers on WhatsApp and want RCS as a backup.
