Gopi Nath

Founder, Whater.ai

I’m the founder of Whater.ai, a project I started to tackle the communication bottlenecks I saw in customer support. When I worked at a leading smart home company, I noticed how hard it was to keep up with customer inquiries as the business scaled. That’s where the idea began: an AI-powered platform that integrates seamlessly with WhatsApp, making post-sales support more efficient and responsive.

But as I got deeper into the project, I realized I could address even bigger challenges. I’ve expanded Whater.ai to not just support customers after their purchase, but to help businesses drive sales before they buy. My platform now offers a set of tools—appointment booking, ticketing, Q&A modules—and I’m building ProductSync, an advanced feature that uses AI to automatically create rich product catalogs. This means businesses can showcase their products more effectively, guide customers through their buying journey, and close more deals.

Along the way, I’ve formed valuable relationships with potential customers and industry insiders. I’ve been working closely with startup ecosystem leaders, received valuable guidance from my alumni network, and brought on a skilled collaborator to help refine the user experience. I’m also tackling the technical challenges, building out a solid backend, and ensuring that Whater.ai delivers reliable results.

My goal is to transform Whater.ai into a must-have solution for companies looking to scale their customer engagement and drive more sales. By combining the convenience of WhatsApp with cutting-edge AI, I’m creating a platform that’s both innovative and practical—a tool that businesses need to not only survive, but thrive in today’s market.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
