THE PROBLEM

Your counsellors spend 70% of their day
on calls that won't convert.

The wrong leads.

A typical mid-tier institution gets 400-1,200 enquiries a week from Justdial, Shiksha, walk-ins, and FB lead-gen. 60% don't meet your basic eligibility. 20% are ready-to-buy. The other 20% are window-shoppers. Your counsellors talk to all of them.

The cost.

At a counsellor cost of ₹40,000-60,000/month plus phone and CRM seats, the loaded cost per qualified lead works out to ₹200-300. Across an admissions cycle, that's ₹50-90 lakh in spend you can directly attribute to the qualifying step.

The opportunity cost.

Every minute spent qualifying a JEE-30%-percentile candidate is a minute not spent closing the qualified one waiting on hold. Your counsellors burn out, your conversion rate sags, and your VC asks why admissions isn't using AI yet.

WHAT KAIROS DOES

One AI agent. Two languages.
Every inbound call.

PILLAR 1

Hindi + English, real fluency.

Built on Sarvam Bulbul:v3 for Hindi and Deepgram for English. Switches mid-conversation when the caller does. Sounds human in our blind tests.

PILLAR 2

Qualified leads, your rubric.

Configure the questions, the cut-offs, the booking conditions. The agent only forwards a lead to a counsellor when your rubric is satisfied. Otherwise, it logs the reason and ends the call cleanly.

PILLAR 3

Operators in control.

Live dashboard. Watch every active call. Listen silently, whisper to the agent, barge in if the caller asks for a human, take over with one click. The AI does the volume; you do the exception.

PILLAR 4

Pushes into your CRM.

Meritto, LeadSquared, HubSpot — out of the box. Custom CRM via webhook in a day. Every qualified lead lands in the system your counsellors already use.

HOW IT WORKS

From phone ring to booked counsellor —
in two minutes.

01
Caller dials your number.
Existing number ported, or a new DID purchased through Kairos in one click. Indian PSTN, Exotel-backed.
02
Agent picks up. Speaks first.
Greets in your tenant's persona, in Hindi or English depending on the caller's first words. Discloses it's an AI on every call (DPDP).
03
Runs your rubric.
Asks the qualifying questions you wrote. Listens, classifies, and decides if the lead meets your bar.
04
Books or logs.
If qualified, books the counsellor on Google Calendar and pushes to Meritto / LeadSquared / your CRM. If not, logs the reason and ends politely.
05
Operators stay in the loop.
Live dashboard shows every active call. Whisper, barge, takeover — your team can step in any time the rubric misclassifies a high-value lead.
Pricing

Three plans.
Pre-paid wallet.

Same plans as our platform pricing — Starter at ₹15,000/mo, Pro at ₹50,000/mo, Enterprise custom. Voice minutes, GST, and overage all spelled out on the main pricing page.

CASE STUDIES

First customer case study coming soon.

We're piloting with a 2,500-admissions/year private university in Q1. When the data lands — qualified-lead delta, counsellor hours saved, conversion uplift — it goes here in full. Until then, we'd rather show you a live agent on a call than quote numbers we haven't measured.

Questions

The five things every
director of admissions asks.

What does the agent actually sound like in Hindi?
Sarvam Bulbul:v3, our default for Hindi pilots — a current Indian-accented voice that switches register naturally between formal and conversational. We'll send a 90-second sample on request, and the demo includes a live blind A/B against a competitor product on your script.
How do we know it's not embarrassing on a real call?
Every conversation is recorded and transcribed. The operator dashboard shows live calls with whisper / barge / takeover controls — if the AI misclassifies, your team intervenes before the caller hangs up. The first 30 days run with a human listening on every call.
Will it integrate with our existing CRM?
Meritto and LeadSquared ship out of the box. HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Microsoft Dynamics — any CRM with a documented REST API or webhook surface — typically takes a day to wire up. Custom proprietary CRMs go through our BYO HTTP-tool surface in 2-3 days.
Is this DPDP compliant? Where does the data live?
AI disclosure is spoken on every PSTN call. Recording is consent-gated and disclosed. Tenant secrets are AES-GCM encrypted at rest. Per-tenant retention configured in the admin console. We sign a DPA on every account. Data residency — India hosted, with documented sub-processors for the LLM / STT / TTS layer.
How long from MSA to first live call?
Five working days. Day 1 — kick-off and rubric. Days 2-3 — channel + persona tuning. Day 4 — smoke runs. Day 5 — first 10% of inbound traffic, ramping to 100% over week two. We hit this in every pilot or the plan fee is refunded (90-day guarantee).
90-DAY GUARANTEE

If we don't hit the qualified-lead delta we
write into your MSA, we refund the plan fee.

We commit to a measurable outcome — number depends on your vertical and rubric — in the MSA. If we miss it in the first 90 days, the plan fee comes back. No haggling, no exit fee. The wallet balance carries over if you stay; gets refunded if you go.
