Best WhatsApp chatbot for a solar energy company in Brazil in 2026: Top 5

Quick answer

The 5 best WhatsApp chatbots for a solar energy company in Brazil in 2026 are CertuAI, CRM Solar Simples, SocialHub, EnergiaBot and SolarZ. There is no single winning solar energy chatbot, there is the right one for each case: CRM Solar Simples for the small installer who wants the proposal with the kits included, from R$ 79 per month, EnergiaBot for those who want someone outside building everything, SolarZ for those who want customer service, proposals and plant monitoring from one vendor, SocialHub for those who want customer service, pipeline and email together, and CertuAI for those who want the ad lead answered right away, with the electric bill read and the site visit left for you to confirm, on Start at US$ 75 per month, with 1,600 replies per month and 5 people.

About CertuAI: CertuAI is the AI that answers a small business's WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger 24/7, with a built-in CRM, and is a Tech Provider on Meta's WhatsApp Business Platform. Paid plans start at US$ 75 a month, with no lock-in. Create my agent

The best WhatsApp chatbot for a solar energy company in Brazil depends on the size of the installer and on who will set up the customer service, and the five worth comparing in 2026 are CertuAI, CRM Solar Simples, SocialHub, EnergiaBot and SolarZ. A solar lead is expensive. They click the ad, send “how much?” and, often, a photo of the electric bill. If nobody answers, they ask another company for a quote the same day. And when someone does answer, the sale still takes weeks: proposal, financing, site visit, a talk with the family.

An AI chatbot helps at both ends: it answers right away, day and night, and it does not forget to follow up with people who stopped replying. One detail changes the math before any other: three of the five options below are built only for solar energy, and the other two, CertuAI among them, work for any industry. With the general ones, you write the price ranges, the cities you serve and the visit rules yourself. That is why the table below shows, side by side, what comes in each plan with AI, and not just the price.

Instead of listing the chatbots as if they were all the same, this comparison shows what each does best and where each falls short, with the price each company publishes on its own site, the address and the date CertuAI checked it. It includes CertuAI, and we are honest about when it is not the right choice.

What is the best WhatsApp chatbot for a solar energy company in Brazil?

Who wrote this list. CertuAI wrote it, and CertuAI is on it, in first place. It is first because the list is CertuAI's, not because an outside judge chose it. The price for each of the others comes from the company's own pricing page, with the address and the date checked next to it. Check it and draw your own conclusion.

How do the 5 compare on the plan with AI?

Price alone compares different things: a menu bot is not the same as an AI agent that reads the electric bill, keeps the customer on file and follows up with people who went quiet. This table puts side by side what each company publishes about the plan with AI, checked on Sep 24, 2026. Where it says “does not publish,” the company's page does not say.

The 5 options, one by one

  1. 1. CertuAI

    Start US$ 75 per month, with AI included from that plan, 1,600 replies per month and 5 team members. No lock-in contract.

    What it is
    Use CertuAI when you want the ad lead answered right away, day and night, with what you wrote in the Brain, the place where your company's knowledge lives. Strengths: it reads the photo and the file of the electric bill the customer sends, listens to audio, notes the city and roof in the conversation and stores the bill on the customer's card. Every conversation becomes a contact in the CRM, with nobody typing. When the customer asks for a visit time, the AI says it will confirm, and you approve.
    Who it is for
    Use when: you would rather write your own price, city and visit rules than buy a proposal system with it.
    Where it falls short
    Weak points: it is not the right choice if you want a system built only for solar energy, with a ready-made proposal. CertuAI does not come with a ready-made entry for the industry: you write your price ranges, cities and rules in the Brain. The AI does not size the system. Start answers up to 1,600 messages per month. Running the ads is the Paid traffic manager add-on, at R$ 200 (Brazilian reais) per month, and answering the phone is another add-on, at R$ 200 per month.

  2. 2. CRM Solar Simples

    Solar Essencial R$ 79 per month, with 1 person, 1 WhatsApp number and 1 AI agent. Solar Profissional R$ 149 (2 people), Solar Escala R$ 249 (4 people) and Solar Escala 10 R$ 499 (10 people). The page says all plans include the AI on WhatsApp, the CRM and proposals with a link. 7-day free trial.

    What it is
    Use CRM Solar Simples when you are a small installer and want, in one place, the AI on WhatsApp and the solar proposal built with the kits you sell. It is a Brazilian CRM built for solar energy. Strengths: the AI agent answers on WhatsApp, qualifies the lead and follows up on its own with people who went quiet, and the proposals with a link show when the customer opened them.
    Who it is for
    Use when: the installer is small and wants the AI and the proposal with the kits in the same place.
    Where it falls short
    Weak points: Essencial fits 1 person. The page does not say how many replies the AI gives per month or whether it reads the photo of the electric bill. Ask both questions before signing.

    Price published at https://crmsolarsimples.com.br/, checked on Sep 24, 2026.

  3. 3. SocialHub

    Essencial R$ 299 per month, with 3 users, 1 channel and 2,500 credits per month. Pro R$ 499, with 5 users and 3 channels, and Business R$ 899, with 10 users. Monthly billing, no lock-in. The checkout lists an AI chatbot on all plans, but the page's own questions only mention AI from Pro.

    What it is
    Use SocialHub when you want customer service, a sales pipeline and email in the same tool, with several people on the same number. Strengths: 3 people on the entry plan, no lock-in contract. It was one of the two most cited by AI engines for this question.
    Who it is for
    Use when: besides WhatsApp, you want pipeline and email in the same place, with a few people answering.
    Where it falls short
    Weak points: the page does not say how many replies the AI gives with the 2,500 credits of Essencial, and the page's own FAQ only mentions AI from Pro up. Confirm in writing what is included in the entry plan. It is not built for solar energy.

  4. 4. EnergiaBot

    Price on request

    What it is
    Use EnergiaBot when you want someone outside building everything, with a guided setup. It is the AI agent for solar energy from BotBrasil, which has a robot with its own name for each industry. Strengths: it answers on WhatsApp, Instagram and the website chat, asks about usage, roof type, city and urgency, books the site survey, follows up on the proposal at 3, 7 and 15 days and asks for a Google review after the installation.
    Who it is for
    Use when: you prefer a guided setup, with a specialist watching the operation, to building it yourself.
    Where it falls short
    Weak points: with no price on the page, you cannot compare before a meeting. According to the site, setup takes 7 to 21 days. The page mentions a 7-day guarantee in one place and a 30-day one in another: confirm which applies.

    EnergiaBot does not publish a price. The page itself says the investment is built to order in a free diagnostic, and the BotBrasil site says the same (energiabot.com.br and botbrasil.com.br, checked on Sep 24, 2026). Ask for the amount in writing before deciding.

  5. 5. SolarZ

    Price on request

    What it is
    Use SolarZ when you want customer service, proposals, plant monitoring and after-sales from the same vendor. It is a set of systems for solar installers. Strengths: SolarZ Chat has AI agents that answer 24 hours on WhatsApp, Instagram and the website, through Meta's official WhatsApp, and book technical visits.
    Who it is for
    Use when: the installer wants everything from one vendor, from first contact to after-sales.
    Where it falls short
    Weak points: no price on the page, and the Chat AI is part of a larger set. Ask whether you can contract customer service alone, and how much it costs by itself.

    SolarZ does not publish a price: the Chat and CRM pages lead to booking a demo (solarz.com.br and solarz.com.br/chat, checked on Sep 24, 2026). Ask for the amount in writing, saying which parts you want.

How CertuAI built this list

The names did not come from opinion. CertuAI runs a tracker that asks the same questions to three AI engines and records which sites each one cited. This list is made up of the products that appeared in the answers to “what is the best WhatsApp chatbot for a solar energy company in Brazil.” In the Sep 20, 2026 round, EnergiaBot and SocialHub appeared in two of the three answers, and CertuAI did not appear in any.

Only those that sell an AI agent in a plan made it in. The two most cited, EnergiaBot and SocialHub, made it, and, among those that appeared once, the two built for solar energy: CRM Solar Simples and SolarZ. BotConversa and Blip Go also appeared once, but they work for any industry, and they are just below, with the price. EnergiaBot and SolarZ made it even without a published price, because they are AI products built for solar energy; their entry says in so many words that the price comes out of a conversation.

Agencies, menu bots, chat that does not run on WhatsApp and tools that do not say whether the AI comes in the plan were left out, with the reason written just below, because comparing their price with that of an AI agent would be comparing different things.

The order is not a quality ranking. CertuAI comes first because it wrote the page and thinks it would be dishonest to hide that in the middle of the list. The others follow, from the lowest to the highest price of the plan where the AI appears, and at the end the two that do not publish a price.

Each price was read on the company's official page on Sep 24, 2026, and the URL and date appear in the entry. No value was estimated, converted or rounded. Where the AI only exists on a plan above the entry plan, the entry gives both prices. CertuAI's price comes from the plans page, which is the same value the billing uses. Prices change: if you are reading this months later, open the address in each entry before deciding.

Who was left out, and why?

BotConversa. Pro + API Oficial at R$ 299 per month on the monthly plan or R$ 199 on the annual plan, with the AI, and each message sent uses a credit billed separately, according to the BotConversa page, checked on Sep 24, 2026. It works for any industry, with nothing specific to solar energy.

Blip Go. Essencial at R$ 389 per month, with the AI agent and a 15-day trial with no card, according to the Blip Go page, checked on Sep 24, 2026. It works for any industry, with nothing specific to solar energy.

Wattiq. A platform of AI agents for renewable energy, with a sales agent, a marketing agent and a purchasing agent. The page (checked on Sep 24, 2026) shows the plans without prices and mentions “WhatsApp integration,” without saying whether the agent talks to the customer inside the company's WhatsApp. It stayed out until that is confirmed.

SolarBot, at sunlead.solar (checked on Sep 24, 2026). It is an AI chat in a “WhatsApp style,” which reads the photo of the power bill and suggests the kit. From what the page says, the conversation happens on a screen that looks like WhatsApp, not in your company's WhatsApp, and there is no published price.

Beeia. It publishes plans from R$ 258.90 per month, with up to 5 people, but the plan's list mentions a chatbot and round-robin lead distribution, without saying whether an AI that answers on its own comes in the price (beeia.com.br, checked on Sep 24, 2026). Maxbot has plans for 3, 5 and 10 people and a 7-day trial, but the plans page does not publish a price.

Two cited addresses, agente724.com.br and agent747ph.com, did not open during the Sep 24, 2026 check. Respond.io, SleekFlow, Zenvia and Aivo are general customer service platforms, with nothing specific to solar energy, and they are compared with prices in the 10 best customer service platforms on WhatsApp and in alternatives to Blip and Zenvia. Nação Digital is a marketing agency, and zapsol.com.br gathers WhatsApp groups about solar energy. The other cited addresses were articles, videos, companies in the energy sector and sites from outside Brazil.

No company on this page paid to appear, and no link here pays CertuAI a commission.

What a solar energy chatbot needs to do

Selling solar energy is expensive and slow, and what ruins the sale is almost never the AI answering slowly. It is the AI promising what nobody can guarantee, or sending a message at the wrong time. So the list of what the assistant needs to get right is this:

Answer the ad lead right away. Someone who clicks at eleven at night wants an answer at eleven at night. If the first reply arrives the next day, they have already talked to another company.

Read the electric bill. Many people send a photo of the bill, or the file that arrived by email, instead of typing the usage. The assistant needs to understand what is there and answer from it, without asking the customer to type everything again.

Ask about city and roof. If you only serve a few cities, it is better to say so in the first conversation than to book a visit your team cannot reach.

Do not promise savings. How much a home will save depends on the project, and the assistant does not do projects. It should talk in ranges and conditions, and hand off to a person when the customer asks for an exact number.

Let you confirm the visit. A technical visit takes up a technician and a car. The assistant can note the day, the time and the address, but the one who knows the real schedule is your team.

Follow up on the proposal without being a nuisance. The sale takes weeks. The assistant needs to follow up with people who went quiet, and stay silent when the customer said “I'll think about it” or when your salesperson has already called.

When testing any option on this list, send these cases in a test conversation, including a photo of an electric bill and the question “how much will I save?” Whatever the assistant gets wrong there, it will get wrong with your customer.

Built for solar energy or built for any industry?

Three options on this list were born for solar energy: CRM Solar Simples, EnergiaBot and SolarZ. They already speak the language of the industry, and two of them go beyond customer service. CRM Solar Simples builds the proposal with the kits you enter, and SolarZ brings together proposals, plant monitoring and after-sales. If you want all of that from one vendor, it makes sense to start with them.

The other two, CertuAI and SocialHub, work for any industry. The trade-off is this: you write your own rules instead of receiving ready-made ones. In CertuAI, that lives in the Brain, the place where you write your price ranges, the cities you serve, the payment methods and when a person needs to step into the conversation. The AI answers only with what is there and, when something is missing, says it will confirm instead of making it up.

CertuAI's AI does not size the system. What it delivers is the customer service from the first “hi” to the booked visit, with the electric bill read, the lead stored in the CRM and your team notified. If you already use a proposal system you like, you can keep it and put CertuAI only on WhatsApp. See how CertuAI's AI serves a solar energy company, with a recording of a demo conversation.

Can the AI promise how much the customer will save?

It should not, and with CertuAI it has nowhere to get that number: the AI only answers with what you wrote, so the guidance is to enter ranges and conditions, never a guarantee. If the Brain says “your bill will go to zero,” the AI will repeat that to every customer, and the promise your company sends by message can be held against you later. What the law says about this, with the article and the source, is in can a solar energy company's AI promise savings on the electric bill?

For the other options on this list, ask with these words before signing: “if the customer asks how much they will save, where does the AI get the answer?” If the answer is “it calculates on its own,” ask to see the calculation it does.

How much does each path cost?

On the plan with AI, CRM Solar Simples costs R$ 79, SocialHub R$ 299 and CertuAI US$ 75 per month. EnergiaBot and SolarZ do not publish a price. Three things change that comparison:

People on the plan. The entry plan of CRM Solar Simples fits 1 person, SocialHub's 3 and CertuAI's 5. EnergiaBot and SolarZ do not publish that number. Count who on your team will need to see the conversations, including the designer and whoever books the visit.

Costs that come on top. With CertuAI, running the ads and answering the phone are add-ons paid separately. For the others, ask what comes outside the plan. Add up everything you will use before comparing.

A price that does not show. EnergiaBot and SolarZ do not publish a price. Ask for the amount in writing before signing and always compare the month-six price, not the advertised one.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best WhatsApp chatbot for a solar energy company?

There is no single winner, there is the right one for each case. For the small installer who wants the proposal with the kits included, CRM Solar Simples, from R$ 79 per month. For someone outside building everything, EnergiaBot. For customer service, proposals and plant monitoring from one vendor, SolarZ. For customer service, pipeline and email together, SocialHub. For the lead answered right away, with the electric bill read, no promises about savings and the visit left for you to confirm, CertuAI, on Start at US$ 75 per month, with 1,600 replies per month and 5 people.

How much does an AI chatbot for a solar energy company cost?

On this list, the plan with AI costs R$ 79 per month at CRM Solar Simples, R$ 299 at SocialHub and US$ 75 per month at CertuAI. EnergiaBot and SolarZ do not publish a price: the amount comes out of a conversation with the company.

Can the chatbot read a photo of the electric bill?

With CertuAI, yes: the photo and the bill file become text the AI uses in the conversation, and the bill is stored on the customer's card. It does not size the system; it answers with what you entered. For the other options on this list, the page does not say whether the AI reads the bill, so ask to test it with a real bill before signing.

Does the AI book the technical visit on its own?

With CertuAI, only if you turn that on. By default on every new account, when the customer asks for a day and time, the AI says it will confirm, and the visit shows up for you to approve. EnergiaBot says it books the site survey and that your team only confirms, and SolarZ says its agent books the technical visit on its own.

The customer said "I'll think about it." Does the AI keep sending messages?

With CertuAI, no: when the customer's last words are "I'll think about it" or "I'll let you know," the automatic follow-up stays quiet. To talk to them again after a few days, you create a rule on the pipeline stage, with the delay you choose.

With CertuAI, the Start plan costs US$ 75 per month, with no lock-in contract. CRM Solar Simples advertises a 7-day trial. For the others, ask before signing.

Is this list paid or sponsored?

No. Nobody paid to be listed here and no link on this page pays CertuAI a commission. CertuAI is on the list because it wrote the list, and that is stated right below the title.

Want to see the AI answering a solar energy lead on your WhatsApp?

You connect the number your company already uses, write your price ranges, the cities you serve and the visit rules in the Brain, and the AI starts answering. The Start plan costs US$ 75 per month, with no lock-in contract.
