Switching
There is nothing to migrate
This is the part people expect to be painful and it is not. You are not moving data between platforms — you are linking the same WhatsApp numbers to a different inbox.
Your numbers do not change
The same business numbers link to Touchpoint by QR scan. Customers keep messaging exactly where they always did and notice nothing.
Your history comes with you
WhatsApp pushes each account’s history to the newly linked device, so your past conversations arrive and become searchable. Two to four minutes for a busy account.
You can run both for a fortnight
Nothing stops you keeping TimelinesAI live during the 14-day trial. Compare them on your own conversations rather than on either company’s marketing.
Questions
Switching from TimelinesAI
Can Touchpoint sync to my CRM?
Not natively yet, and this is the clearest gap between us. Native connectors are on the roadmap. If automatic CRM sync is a hard requirement today, TimelinesAI is the better choice and we would rather tell you that now.
Why is TimelinesAI so much more expensive for a team?
Two multipliers stack. Their shared inbox is a higher feature tier at $40 a seat rather than their entry price, and it is billed per person. Five agents means five seats at the inbox tier, so $200 a month for the same job a flat $49 plan does.
Do they support group chats?
Their group support is more limited than ours. If your work happens in WhatsApp groups — which it does in freight, wholesale and project work — check this carefully against your own use case before committing.
