Your Pricing Page Gets
300 Visitors. You Only Close 8.
Toran identifies which companies are on your site, scores their intent based on dwell time, and routes the "whales" to your best AE via WhatsApp — before they bounce. Free forever. No Intercom bill. Ever.
Close Deals Faster. Spend Less Doing It.
SaaS companies pay $29–$132/seat/month for Intercom (captured 2026-06-04). Toran does the same routing and identification for free.
0ms Company Identification
Know it's an enterprise prospect before they send a single message. Route them to your senior AE instantly — not your support queue.
0ms — no API call, no database lookup. Cloudflare reads the visitor's ASN at the edge before a single byte of your page is served.
Pricing Page Intent Scoring
Visitor spends 4 minutes on your pricing page → Toran scores them as hot. On Pro, your AE gets a Slack ping with company name, dwell time, and pages viewed.
Route to AEs by Territory or Deal Size
Enterprise lead from Germany? Goes to your EMEA AE. SMB from Texas? Goes to your SMB team. No manual triage. No missed deals.
Stop SDR Burnout
90% of SaaS inquiries are tire-kickers. Toran's AI qualifies based on budget and technical fit before your team ever gets involved. SDRs handle real opportunities — not FAQ answering.
The Intercom Alternative
SaaS Teams Actually Afford.
Intercom starts at $29/seat/month. Drift starts at $2,500. Toran starts at $0. You get smart routing, company identification, and WhatsApp lead capture free; Slack alerts on Pro.
Live Attribution
See exactly which Google Ad or LinkedIn campaign triggered the visitor's intent. Close the loop between your marketing spend and WhatsApp conversations.
Every conversation Toran routes carries the original UTM parameters — so when a LinkedIn Ad drives a WhatsApp conversation that closes, you know exactly which campaign to scale.
The MRR Math Behind a 5-Minute Response Window.
Speed-to-lead isn't a vanity metric for SaaS — it bends the LTV/CAC ratio your board reviews. Here is the back-of-envelope calculation for a typical seed-stage SaaS with a $30 MRR seat, a $40 blended CAC, and a 5% trial-to-paid baseline.
- · 1,000 pricing-page visitors / month
- · 50 trial sign-ups (5% conversion)
- · 5% trial → paid (Velocify baseline for 6h response) = 2.5 paid
- · LTV at 12-month average tenure: $30 × 12 = $360
- · CAC: $40 / 0.0025 conversion = $16,000 acquisition cost per paid (math from $40 ad cost × 1,000 visitors / 2.5 paid)
- · LTV/CAC: 0.023 — the unit economics are upside-down
- · Same 1,000 visitors, same 50 sign-ups
- · 391% lift on 1-minute response (Velocify, 2016) → 5% becomes ~24.5% trial → paid = ~12 paid
- · LTV unchanged: $360
- · CAC: $40 × 1,000 / 12 = ~$3,333 per paid
- · LTV/CAC: 0.108 — still rough, but 4.7× better, and the payback period drops from never to ~9 months at a 20% gross margin step-up.
The point isn't the exact numbers — plug your own ARR, CAC, and trial-to-paid baseline in. The point is that the gap between a 90-second WhatsApp routed conversation and a 6-hour email follow-up is the line between "burning cash on Google Ads we never close" and "a payback period your board can underwrite." Every SaaS model we've run lands in the same place: the routing layer pays for itself before the next funding round closes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is WhatsApp lead routing for SaaS teams?
WhatsApp lead routing for SaaS is a system that identifies high-intent website visitors — such as users on the pricing page or returning trial users — and routes them instantly to the right sales rep via WhatsApp. Toran scores each visitor with AI before they click, so your team gets context (company size, pages visited, intent signal) alongside the conversation.
How does Toran compare to Intercom for SaaS lead routing?
Toran focuses on the first-response problem: getting the right rep in front of a hot lead within seconds. Unlike Intercom, Toran routes to personal WhatsApp numbers (no Business API required), costs $0 for small teams, and delivers AI lead scoring on the free plan. Intercom is better for in-app messaging and support; Toran is better for pre-sales WhatsApp routing.
Does Toran require the WhatsApp Business API for SaaS teams?
No. Toran routes website visitors directly to agents' personal WhatsApp numbers using direct wa.me links — no WhatsApp Business API approval, no per-conversation fees, no Meta setup. Your team gets leads on the WhatsApp they already use.
Is Toran free for SaaS startups?
Yes. Toran is free forever for teams with up to 2 agents. The free plan includes AI lead scoring (2 scored conversations a day), round-robin routing, visitor identification, and pricing page intent alerts. Paid plans start at $19/month for teams that need more agents or higher scoring volume.
