OyeIA vs alternatives — no sugarcoating

When does each one make sense?
When OyeIA is the best option
You're a Peruvian SMB and you don't want to manage one more piece of software: with OPERA you pay a monthly fee and we operate the assistant for you — it configures and improves itself every week, with no developers to hire. If you'd rather own the system and your vertical is self-sufficient (auto parts, for example), CONECTA leaves the stack installed with a one-time payment. Either way you talk to humans in neutral Spanish and someone handles the setup.
When Wati / Leadsales fits better
If you need activation in 24 hours, don't want anyone configuring it for you, and prefer paying monthly without a 1-year commitment. Wati has very polished self-serve UX. Leadsales is strong if your whole team is in Spanish and prioritizes light CRM over integrations.
When Treble is better
If you're a mid-market company already billing USD 5M+, have a dedicated IT team and need specific integrations with global systems. Treble plays in a different pricing league — well positioned for that segment.
When 'build from scratch' with a freelancer makes sense
If you have an internal dev team and want full code control. The catch: when the freelancer leaves, you're left with code nobody maintains. The difference between a project that lasts 6 months and one that lasts 6 years is the permanent operator, not the code.
