In just 2 days, organisations can build a working chatbot. But getting it live and running? That’s where most teams get stuck.
Over the past year, the Glific Launchpad has helped dozens of nonprofits take their first step toward building WhatsApp chatbots.
However, we learned something important:
“Building a chatbot in 2 days is possible. Running pilots and scaling it – that’s where the real challenge begins.”
What we learnt:
While workshop engagement was high, many organisations struggled to continue afterwards. This was largely due to
- Translating learnings into real implementation
- Navigating platform complexity independently
At the same time, however, organisations like Adventures Beyond Barriers (ABBF) and Gyan Prakash Foundation, with continued support or strong internal capacity, were able to scale, reaching thousands of users and running high-volume chatbot programs.
This made one thing clear: “Post-workshop support is the difference between starting and succeeding.”
Introducing the New Launchpad:
Based on the learnings, we’ve redesigned Launchpad into a 1-month pilot support program, so you don’t stop at learning.
What this looks like:
- 2-Day Virtual Workshop (June 22–23)
Build your chatbot, scope your use case, and conclude with a working prototype. - 1-Month Pilot Support
Structured guidance to help you go from prototype → live pilot, including:- Check-ins and troubleshooting
- Flow reviews and iteration support
- Pilot planning and execution
- Data & Dashboard Webinar
Learn how to track performance and improve your chatbot. - Ongoing Community Support
Peer learning with other NGOs, weekly support hour calls & active Discord community
What You Can Expect by the End of the Program:
By the end of the program, you will:
- Have a live, tested WhatsApp chatbot
- Run a real pilot with your users
- Start seeing early engagement and data
- Know how to improve and scale your use case
In short: From idea → build → pilot → early scale
