'Whizzle' is a smartphone messaging 'Chat Commerce' app to chat with local businesses, Whizzle Founder and CEO Hari Chava told reporters here.
"Customers can simply check the product availability and price with a message and order on the go. Whizzle guarantees a response in less than 60 seconds. It owns the entire order life cycle from receiving orders to home delivery of the goods with support for cash-on-delivery," he said.
Whizzle enables consumers to go ahead from web search of businesses or desktop era of online basket-based purchase flow to highly personal and intuitive mobile message based transactions, Chava said.
"Every business can now become a smart business by downloading Whizzle and registering as a business. Whizzle currently has more than 15,000 businesses spread across Hyderabad," Whizzle Technology Head Siddhartha Kongara said.
"Customers can order food, groceries and any other daily needs, book appointments with spas, salons, clinics and doctors, check prices and availability of any product at most businesses and reserve tables in restaurants and rooms in hotels all with just a message," he said.
After Hyderabad, Whizzle has plans to expand to Bengaluru, Mumbai and Delhi in next three months.
