Defuser AI vs Interakt: overview

Interakt is a WhatsApp Business API platform for SMBs and D2C brands, with a shared inbox, broadcasts, catalog and strong Shopify and WooCommerce hooks. Defuser AI also runs on the official API and is Meta-Verified, but adds agentic AI (Talksy), native Shopify automation and reach across Instagram, Messenger and TikTok.

If WhatsApp-first commerce is your focus, Interakt is a capable, well-priced option. If you want agentic AI and multiple channels in one inbox, Defuser covers more ground. Both are no-code.
