What is different?
Choose for the job you need
Count subscribers and messages
SendPulse Basic lists three chatbots, 500 subscribers and 10,000 messages across bots each month.
WinkSend Free has 1,000 runs and 3 reply flows. These numbers are not the same unit.
Keep other channels
SendPulse’s wider suite includes email, SMS, CRM and messaging bots.
WinkSend focuses on Instagram. Do not lose a working email or cross-channel flow.
Price the right product
SendPulse chatbot Pro uses a subscriber calculator. Email plans are separate.
WinkSend Creator is ₹499 INR / $9.99 USD a month. Compare the whole campaign cost, not an unrelated email price.

Questions before you choose
Does 10,000 messages mean 10,000 people?
No. SendPulse lists a separate 500-subscriber limit on Basic. Messages and people are different.
Can I compare SendPulse email prices here?
Use chatbot pricing for this decision. Email subscriptions buy a different service.
Will my bots import into WinkSend?
No automatic import is claimed. Save the old flow and rebuild one Instagram reply first.
