Scan Competitor, Get Havells

When a consumer walks into a multi-brand retail store, they see products from Crompton, Orient, Bajaj, Philips, Anchor - all displayed side by side. The dealer often pushes whichever brand gives the best margin. Havells has no way to insert itself into that moment of decision unless the consumer already has brand preference.

• Consumers often don't know which Havells product matches the competitor model they're looking at
• Dealers push higher-margin brands at point of sale, overriding consumer research
• Havells field sales team can't be present at every retail touchpoint
• Online comparison requires manual model number search - too much friction in-store

Consumer or dealer points their phone camera at any competitor product - a Crompton fan on display, an Orient AC box, a Philips light fixture. AI identifies the product and instantly shows the equivalent or better Havells alternative with a side-by-side comparison: price, energy rating, features, warranty, and where to buy.

• Works via WhatsApp (send photo) or Havells app (camera scan)
• AI identifies competitor brand, model, and category from product image, packaging, or label
• Returns the closest Havells equivalent with feature-by-feature comparison
• Shows price advantage, energy savings, and warranty difference
• Links to nearest Havells dealer or online purchase
