Pricing
Pilot pricing that fits inside what you're already spending.
Pilots are sized to sit alongside what you already spend on mystery shopping and L&D. We're not self-serve yet; every customer today is a conversation with the founder.
Where we sit
Between the mystery shopper and the LMS.
The line items we replace are already on your budget. We aim to fit inside that envelope, not on top of it.
How pilots are scoped
One store or one team. Two to four weeks. One question worth answering.
We write the pilot scope down together before the contract is signed. Success is whether we answer the specific question you walked in with: what did my best store do differently last week, or which three product questions kept tripping up the floor this month. That question becomes the thing we deliver on, not a list of features.
Capture
One location or one team: Rover for fixed-position, wearable for field, or software for audio you already have.
Intelligence layer
Speaker-labelled transcripts, per-staff identity, business moments tagged, and the dashboard your operations team picks up on Monday.
Coaching loop
Turn real moments into 90-second practice reps for the staff member who lived them.
Implementation support
Zero to first dashboard inside two weeks. Founder on call for the first week of data.
What it sits next to
The pilot is sized to sit inside what you already spend on this gap.
Cost-recovery is a realistic framing for the first conversation. Revenue recovery, the rupee figure on the moments we surface, tends to be the more interesting number for the operator and the CFO together.
| Existing line item | What you spend today | What we do to it |
|---|---|---|
| Mystery-shopper programme | ₹1.5L – ₹5L per quarter at multi-site retail. Two-to-four visits per store. Three-week reporting delay. | Replace. Full-fleet listening, dashboard by Monday. |
| LMS used for coaching | ₹50K – ₹2.5L per year for a 50–200 person team. Generic modules, low completion. | Can replace. We generate coaching from real moments instead of a vendor's catalogue. |
| Voice-of-customer agency | ₹2L – ₹10L per engagement at a mid-size D2C brand. Sample report, periodic. | Can replace. Continuous signal from full conversation volume. |
| Post-shift huddle | Time, not money. Runs on opinion. | Augment with evidence. The huddle still happens, now run on actual moments. |
| NPS / CSAT survey | Subscription cost + analyst time. | Augment. The survey tells you the score. We tell you why. |

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions.
Is there a free tier?
Not yet. We're not self-serve today; every customer is a conversation with the founder. We'll publish a self-serve option once it's real.
What does a pilot actually cost?
The per-customer number depends on capture surface (Rover hardware vs software-only), number of locations or teams, and whether agent access is part of the scope. We size pilots to sit alongside what you already spend on mystery shopping and L&D.
How fast can we be live?
One store or team, two to four weeks. First dashboard within seven days of capture going live.
Do you support languages other than Hindi and Marathi?
Yes: Punjabi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Hinglish, and English. It's tuned for the rapid code-switching every Indian shift has.
Where does our audio live?
India. Storage region is pinned to India at contract signing and doesn't change without your approval. You control retention and redaction.
Do you do covert capture?
No. Consent is documented per surface: signage for fixed-position, opt-in for wearable, recording disclosure for software. We'll politely turn down a customer who wants us to operate covertly.
Can our own AI query the conversation data?
Yes, through our agent API. Available with any pilot.
What if we want to bring our own audio (no hardware)?
Software-only capture works. Upload a file, paste a meeting URL, or forward a call. Boingg uses this for D2C call review.
Tell us about your fleet, and we'll show you ours.
Fifteen minutes with the founder. We walk a dashboard from a customer in a surface like yours, and sketch a pilot for one of your locations.
