The Chennai angle for real-estate

Tamil-only customers form 60-70% of service business inbound. Generic English-only chat or voice loses these leads to local competitors immediately.

Buyers go cold in 2 hours

Real estate is the highest-velocity buyer market in India. A buyer who messages at 11am and gets a reply at 3pm has already shortlisted three other properties from competing agents.

Site visits no-show 25-40% of the time

Buyers say yes; they don't show up. Agent spends 90 minutes blocked at the property. Nothing converts. WhatsApp confirmations cut this by half.

Lead qualification is verbal and inconsistent

Some agents ask budget upfront, some don't. Some ask timeline, some don't. The data never gets recorded, so follow-up is guess-driven 30 days later.

Language + voice in Chennai

Tamil-first; English used in formal contexts. Hindi penetration low — voice/chat in Tamil non-negotiable.

Doggu's voice agent auto-detects Tamil, English, Telugu and switches mid-conversation if the caller does. WhatsApp templates can be approved in any of the languages your customers actually use.

We pull leads from Magicbricks and 99acres via their lead-export API or email forwarding. Within 5 minutes of a portal lead landing, the AI sends a qualification reply on WhatsApp. Listings still live on the portals — Doggu manages the conversation, not the listing inventory.
