White-label delivery

Research goes out over the official WhatsApp Business Cloud API under your own practice name, not a personal number and not a grey broadcast list. Your clients see your desk, not ours.

๐ŸŽฏ

Targeted by holding

Send a note only to the clients who hold the relevant stock. Exposure-aware delivery keeps each message relevant to the person reading it, instead of one blast to everyone.

๐Ÿ”’

Logged to the audit trail

Every send is recorded automatically in your Regulation 25 audit trail: SHA-256 hashed, timestamped, with the recipient on the record. No separate logging step to remember.

โœ…

Consent respected

Delivery runs on opt-in, in line with WhatsApp Business policy and SEBI advertisement-code expectations. Clients who have not opted in are not messaged.

๐Ÿ—„๏ธ

Five-year retention

Notes, recipients, hashes and timestamps are retained for five years and export to a clean CSV when an inspector asks. The WhatsApp send is part of the same record.

๐Ÿงพ

One record, every channel

WhatsApp, email, Telegram and the rest write to the same trail. What went out, to whom, and when lives in one place rather than scattered across apps.

Aktai is the infrastructure and the record. Compliance itself stays your responsibility as the registered Research Analyst. This is not legal or compliance advice.

WhatsApp workflows FAQ

Can I send research to clients on WhatsApp as a SEBI RA?

Yes, when it is done the right way. Aktai delivers your research over the official WhatsApp Business Cloud API under your own practice name, to clients who have opted in, and logs every send to your Regulation 25 audit trail. That is research delivery to consenting clients, not a marketing blast to a bought list. The compliance judgement on what you send still sits with you as the registered Research Analyst.

Is WhatsApp delivery compliant?

The channel itself is compliant when you use the official Business Cloud API, respect opt-in, and keep the record. Aktai handles all three: official API, consent-gated sends, and an automatic SHA-256 timestamped log in your Regulation 25 trail. It is not a grey-market broadcast tool. Compliance with the Research Analyst Regulations and the SEBI advertisement code remains your responsibility; Aktai gives you the infrastructure and the record to support it.

Does my number or my practice name show to clients?

Your practice name. Delivery is white-labelled over the WhatsApp Business Cloud API under your registered desk, so clients receive research from your practice rather than a personal mobile number or an unbranded broadcast list. This keeps the experience professional and the sender identifiable, which is what consent and the advertisement code expect.

How does targeting by holding work?

When you publish a note on a stock, Aktai can route it only to the clients whose recorded holdings include that stock, so each client receives research relevant to their own exposure. This is descriptive delivery of your research, not portfolio management, discretionary trading, or any buy or sell instruction. You decide the note; Aktai decides who, among consenting clients, it is relevant to.

Is every WhatsApp send recorded for inspection?

Yes. Each send is hashed with SHA-256, timestamped, and chained into your Regulation 25 audit trail alongside the note content and recipient. Records are retained for five years and export to CSV on demand, so a WhatsApp delivery is just as inspectable as anything sent by email or Telegram.

Deliver research the compliant way.
