Top AI CRO Platforms for Indian D2C 2025: Complete Comparison

The ₹4.2 Crore Platform Selection Mistake

Two brands chose different CRO platforms.

Brand A (Enterprise Platform): ₹52L cost. 3-6 months setup. +18% conversion. ROI: 280% Brand B (Troopod - India-First): ₹22L cost. 3 weeks setup. +124% conversion. ROI: 1,840%

5-year difference: ₹21.4 crores.

Why Enterprise Platforms Fail Indian D2C

Built for:

• Fortune 500 (₹1,000Cr+ revenue)
• US/EU markets (no COD)
• Desktop-heavy (60% desktop)
• Unlimited budgets (₹80L+ acceptable)

Indian D2C reality:

• ₹2-100Cr revenue
• 50%+ COD
• 78%+ mobile
• ₹15-40L budgets

Mismatch = failure
