Everything KROVA does, in the order you’ll need it.

Start at the top if you’re new — account, setup, first briefing. Jump straight to a channel or a setting if you already know what you’re looking for.

What is KROVA?

KROVA is your AI business analyst. It reads every customer conversation across WhatsApp, Instagram and voice calls, then tells you who’s hot, who’s slipping, what’s at risk, and exactly what to say next.

Every night at 10 PM it scans everything that came in. By 8 AM you get a WhatsApp briefing telling you what to do that day. You approve, KROVA sends. That’s the whole loop.

01
It reads

Every message on every connected channel, automatically.

02
It thinks

Scores leads, spots churn, finds revenue you're losing.

03
It drafts

Writes replies in your tone. You only press approve.

Who this is for
Owners of Indian SMBs — coaching institutes, clinics, salons, boutiques, agencies, freelancers. If your customers find you on WhatsApp, this is for you.
Step 1

Create your account

Sign-up takes under a minute. Then choose a plan on the Billing page (from ₹2,999 a month plus 18% GST).

  1. 1

    Open the sign-up page

    Visit /signup from the navbar, or click Start free.
  2. 2

    Enter your details

    Full name, email, and a password of at least 8 characters. Or skip the form and use Continue with Google.
  3. 3

    Confirm your email

    We send a verification link — click it to activate the account. Google sign-ins skip this step.
  4. 4

    Land in the setup wizard

    You're dropped straight into the four-step onboarding flow described below.
More than one owner?
Sign up with whoever holds the master WhatsApp number — that’s the account that receives the 8 AM briefing. Team members can be invited later from Settings.
Returning users

Sign in

Already have an account? Three ways back in.

Email & password

The credentials you signed up with. Forgot it? Use the reset link on the login page.

Google

One-click sign-in if you registered with Google. Same account, no password to remember.

Mobile app

Once installed, the app stays signed in. Touch ID or Face ID protects access.

Trouble signing in?
If you signed up with Google you don’t have a password — use the Google button rather than the email form. If you forgot your password, reset it from the sign-in page. Still stuck, email us.
Step 2

First-time setup

After sign-up you land in a four-step wizard. Total time: about five minutes.

  1. 1

    Business profile

    Your business name, city, type (coaching, clinic, salon and so on), and the WhatsApp number where briefings should arrive.
  2. 2

    Connect channels

    Pick at least one — WhatsApp, Instagram or Voice. You can add the rest later.
  3. 3

    AI setup

    Describe what you sell in a paragraph, and what makes a good lead. The brain uses this to score every conversation.
  4. 4

    Launch

    Done. KROVA starts watching your channels, runs its first analysis tonight at 10 PM IST, and briefs you at 8 AM tomorrow.
You can skip steps
Channel connections can wait — add them from Settings later. The only required step is the business profile.
Daily use

The 8 AM briefing

Every morning at 8:00 AM IST, KROVA sends a WhatsApp message to your registered number. The whole briefing takes under a minute to read.

What a briefing looks like

Good morning, Aditya.

3 hot leads need replies today — Priya, Rahul, Anjali.

2 going cold — Vikram and Sneha, silent for 4+ days.

₹47,000 in unpaid quotes. Reply YES and I'll send reminders.

32 messages sent yesterday, reply rate 94%.

What you can do from the briefing

  • Reply YES to approve every suggested draft in one tap
  • Reply with a number to approve just that one action
  • Tap any name to open their conversation in the dashboard
  • Reply STOP to pause briefings — you can turn them back on any time
Want a different time?
Settings → Briefing → Schedule. Move it to 7 AM, 9 AM, or split it into a morning and an evening briefing.
Daily use

Approving actions

An action is a draft reply waiting on you. They show up in two places: the briefing carries the top five, and the Actions tab in the dashboard has all of them.

Approve

KROVA sends the message through the channel it came in on. It lands in your sent folder seconds later.

Edit, then send

Tweak the draft before it goes. Your edits also teach the AI what your real voice sounds like.

Snooze

Push it to later — an hour, tomorrow morning, next Monday. It returns to the top of your queue on its own.

Reject

Discard the draft. KROVA learns from rejections: enough on the same theme and it shifts approach.

Daily use

People & relationships

Everyone who messages you becomes a relationship automatically — no contact forms to fill. KROVA builds the database out of inbound chats.

Each person gets

  • A status — hot, warm, cold, converted or lost
  • A health score from 0 to 100 showing relationship strength
  • Their primary channel (WhatsApp, Instagram, Voice)
  • A timeline of every conversation, across every channel
  • An assigned team member, if you have a team
  • Notes and commitments — anything you promised them
Searching
The search bar in Relationships finds someone by name, phone or email, across all channels at once.
Daily use

The Intelligence view

Open /dashboard/intelligence for the deeper signals. The brain surfaces eight categories of insight.

Predictions

Who's likely to churn, who's likely to convert, and when.

Revenue leaks

Unpaid quotes, ghosted hot leads, abandoned conversations.

Voice of customer

Clustered themes from real chats — what people keep asking for.

Commitments

Things you promised, and might otherwise forget to deliver.

Competitor mentions

When customers name a rival, with the surrounding context.

Growth blockers

Patterns in lost deals — why you keep losing this customer type.

Anti-spam alerts

Suspected scams and low-quality leads, before you spend time on them.

Coaching

Suggestions for improving your replies, based on your own history.

Channels

Connecting channels

A channel is any inbox — or phone line — KROVA reads from and writes to. Three are supported today, and you can connect more than one of each — useful if you run two WhatsApp numbers.

WhatsApp
~2 min to set up
Instagram
~3 min to set up
Voice
~~1 day (KYC) to set up
Where to connect
Either during the onboarding wizard, or any time afterwards from Settings → Channels. Removing a channel doesn’t delete past conversations.
Channels

Connecting WhatsApp

The channel that matters most for Indian SMBs. KROVA supports WhatsApp Business. Personal WhatsApp is not supported.

  1. 1

    Open Settings → Channels

    Click the WhatsApp tile.
  2. 2

    Scan the QR code

    On your phone: WhatsApp Business → Settings → Linked Devices → Link a Device. Scan the code shown in KROVA.
  3. 3

    Wait for confirmation

    A confirmation appears within about ten seconds, and KROVA starts syncing your recent chats immediately.
  4. 4

    Set the briefing number

    Make sure the same number is entered in Settings → Briefing — that's where the 8 AM message goes.
Personal WhatsApp won't work
You need the free WhatsApp Business app. If you only have personal WhatsApp, download Business first — it can take over the same number during transfer.
Channels

Connecting Instagram

Works with Business and Creator accounts. Personal accounts aren’t supported by Instagram’s API.

  1. 1

    Switch to Business or Creator

    Instagram → Settings → Account type → Switch to Business, if you haven't already.
  2. 2

    Link a Facebook Page

    Instagram's API requires a connected Page. Creating one takes a minute if you don't have it.
  3. 3

    Click Connect in KROVA

    Settings → Channels → Instagram sends you to Meta to grant permissions.
  4. 4

    Approve permissions

    Allow KROVA to read and send DMs.
Story replies and comments
KROVA also captures story replies and DMs opened from comment buttons. Story replies are treated as fresh conversations.
Channels

Connecting Voice

A real phone number your customers can call, answered by KROVA’s AI in real time. India regulatory KYC is required before a number can be purchased — budget about a day for approval, not the ~2 minutes other channels take.

  1. 1

    Create your voice subaccount

    Voice → Regulatory KYC & Compliance → Create Subaccount. One click, instant.
  2. 2

    Register your business identity

    Registers your business name with the carrier for KYC.
  3. 3

    Upload KYC documents

    Registration Certificate and any other document types listed. Each type may ask for extra details (e.g. your registered business name) — the form will prompt for it.
  4. 4

    Submit and wait for carrier approval

    Status moves to "In Review by Carrier", then "Compliance Approved" once cleared.
  5. 5

    Search and buy a number

    Voice → Phone Numbers, once approved. Search by area code (e.g. 80 for Bengaluru — no leading zero) and connect.
No leading zero
Plivo’s own numbers drop the STD code’s leading zero (Bengaluru is “80”, not “080”) — search either way and KROVA normalises it.
Configure

Teaching KROVA your voice

Drafts come out in your tone rather than generic chatbot language. The AI learns from two places: the messages you’ve already sent, and your edits to its drafts.

Where to teach it

01

Settings → Voice → Tone

Pick formal, friendly or casual. This sets the default for new drafts.

02

Settings → Voice → Language mix

English, Hindi or Hinglish. Most Indian SMBs choose Hinglish.

03

Settings → Voice → Examples

Paste five replies you've sent before. The AI copies the cadence, the greetings, the length.

04

Edit any draft that sounds off

Every edit teaches it. After roughly 20 edits, drafts start landing close to right.

Configure

Setting guardrails

Guardrails are hard rules the AI cannot break — never quote below a floor price, never name a competitor, never make a medical claim.

Common guardrails owners set

  • Never quote prices without my approval first
  • Never recommend a competitor's product
  • Never promise delivery faster than 48 hours
  • Never use slang like 'bro' or 'mate'
  • Always confirm before booking an appointment
  • Never share my personal phone number
Enforced on every draft
Guardrails are checked twice — once while reading the conversation, and again before a draft reaches your queue. The brain holds them even if a customer asks directly.
Configure

Autopilot rules

Autopilot lets you set when this happens, do that rules. Set one once and KROVA runs it from then on.

Frequently asked

No. CRMs are databases you have to feed. KROVA is your AI business analyst — it reads your conversations on its own, tells you what's at risk, and drafts the next move. You approve. It executes.
Help

Common issues

Check Settings → Briefing. The usual cause is an unverified WhatsApp number. Tap re-verify, enter the 6-digit code that arrives on WhatsApp, and the next briefing lands on schedule.
