Spotbeam Debuts AI-Powered Local Growth Suite: One Dashboard for Reviews, Ads, Storefronts, and Revenue Automation

Press release from: Spotbeam

Spotbeam, an AI-first local growth companion for small and medium businesses, has launched publicly with a mission to give India's 64 million MSMEs an AI copilot for visibility, traffic, and conversion across Google, WhatsApp, and social platforms. The platform connects with Google Business Profile, Meta and WhatsApp so that local businesses can respond to customers in real time, launch high-intent campaigns, and capture leads or orders on mobile-first storefronts-without agencies, developers, or multiple tools.

India's MSME sector contributes roughly 29-30% of the country's GDP and employs over 110 million people, making it one of the largest engines of jobs and regional growth. Yet, a recent BCG-FICCI report estimates that AI adoption across the 64 million-strong MSME base could unlock more than 500 billion dollars in economic value, provided tools become simpler, more accessible, and tailored to SME realities. Spotbeam positions itself squarely in this gap, as an AI-first business built around MSME workflows rather than retrofitting enterprise software for smaller teams.

The problem: fragmented digital growth for MSMEs
Most local businesses today rely on a patchwork of basic websites, Google listings, ad accounts, forms, and WhatsApp chats to manage their online presence. NITI Aayog and industry reports note that while MSMEs account for close to a third of GDP, they still struggle with digital infrastructure, awareness, and access to skilled talent needed to run modern, multi-channel marketing.

Parallel research on AI in Indian SMEs highlights strong optimism: tech-enabled MSMEs overwhelmingly acknowledge AI's potential to drive growth and productivity, but adoption remains uneven due to complexity, costs, and lack of integrated solutions. The BCG-FICCI study further suggests that AI could handle 70-80% of routine tasks and up to half of reasoning-based tasks by 2026, if businesses adopt AI-first systems rather than treating AI as a bolt-on feature. Spotbeam is built in this "AI-first" spirit, giving MSMEs a single, AI-native platform instead of isolated automation shortcuts.

What Spotbeam offers: a complete local growth system
Spotbeam combines three pillars that local businesses usually manage separately-visibility, traffic, and conversion-into one connected system. On the visibility side, Spotbeam automates Google review replies and centralises reviews so teams can monitor sentiment and act on feedback faster, while maintaining a consistent, professional brand voice. For traffic, it generates and schedules high-converting posts for Google and social channels, focused on local, high-intent demand rather than generic content.

For conversion, Spotbeam introduces a Storefront module that lets businesses launch fast, mobile-first pages where customers can browse, enquire, book, or buy. The system is designed to replace the need for separate website builders, form tools, and ad landing pages; businesses can still keep their existing sites, but for day-to-day growth, Spotbeam becomes the operational hub.

The platform also includes opinionated Google Search and Display ads templates built for local intent, helping small businesses capture demand from queries like "clinic near me" or "bridal lehenga shop in Gurugram" without wrestling with complex ad interfaces. All of this is surfaced inside a single dashboard, so owners and teams can see which reviews, posts, and campaigns are driving calls, visits, and leads in one place.

AI at the centre: from WhatsApp to reviews
A key differentiator for Spotbeam is its focus on WhatsApp and real-time messaging, which have become default channels for Indian consumers. Customers increasingly expect instant responses, but small teams cannot always reply in real time; Spotbeam's AI agent acknowledges enquiries on WhatsApp as soon as they arrive, sets expectations, and keeps conversations moving so no lead goes cold.


The same AI layer powers review replies and content generation across Google and social platforms, enabling businesses to respond faster and more consistently while staying on-brand. This AI-first approach aligns with broader projections that AI adoption in India's SME segment could unlock hundreds of billions of dollars in value through productivity gains, reduced manual workloads, and improved access to customers.

Built for real local operations and agencies
Spotbeam is explicitly designed for how local businesses actually operate: some customers want to buy immediately, others prefer to enquire, compare, or book a visit. The platform supports all of these paths with flexible storefront modes-product listings, service catalogues, lead forms, and booking-style flows-so a single system can power everything from a neighbourhood retailer to a multi-location clinic.

For agencies and larger, multi-location brands, Spotbeam offers unlimited locations, dedicated AI tone training, white-label dashboards, and CRM-friendly integrations. This makes it possible for marketing partners and aggregators to manage dozens or hundreds of outlets from a single control centre, standardising AI replies, campaigns, and storefront experiences while still allowing local customisation where needed.

Market context: why now for Spotbeam
India is one of the world's fastest-growing AI markets, yet contributes less than 1% of global AI patents, underscoring a need to build more "AI-first" businesses that go beyond surface-level adoption. The World Economic Forum and other analyses suggest that AI could unlock roughly 490-685 billion dollars in economic value for India by 2030, much of it flowing through SMEs as they boost productivity and expand market reach.

At the same time, MSMEs are projected to increase their contribution to GDP from around 30% today toward 35% by the middle of this decade, provided they receive the right digital and financial support. With AI adoption across MSMEs alone projected to unlock over 500 billion dollars in value, tools like Spotbeam are emerging as critical infrastructure to ensure that local businesses can participate in this opportunity, not be left behind it. Spotbeam's launch reflects this moment: rising AI readiness, surging MSME digitisation, and a clear demand for opinionated, outcome-focused platforms rather than generic software.

Founder perspective
"Local businesses in India are doing hero's work every day, but their digital stack is often a patchwork of apps, agencies, and manual effort," said Raghav Joshi, founder of Spotbeam. "We built Spotbeam so that a shop owner in Gurugram or a clinic in Jaipur can connect their Google, Meta, and WhatsApp once, and then let AI handle reviews, posts, ads, and even storefront conversions from one place."

Joshi added that AI adoption across MSMEs could unlock more than 500 billion dollars in economic value over the coming years, but only if AI becomes usable and affordable at the ground level. "The real test for AI in India is whether it helps the kirana store, the neighbourhood salon, the regional D2C brand-not just large enterprises," he said. "Spotbeam is our answer to that challenge: a practical AI growth companion for the businesses that power nearly a third of India's GDP."

Availability and getting started
Spotbeam is available immediately via the web at spotbeam.ai, with onboarding designed to take minutes rather than weeks. Businesses can sign up, connect their existing Google Business Profile, Meta, and WhatsApp accounts, and begin testing AI-powered workflows for review replies, content, ads, and storefronts from a single dashboard.

The Spotbeam Storefront module is accessible from within the main workspace and is built to get a functioning online store or catalogue live in under an hour for most businesses, often much faster. From there, owners can refine their AI tone, add products or services, and switch on automated follow-ups so every enquiry has a clear next step.
