"Horizon took us from 28 crore to 84 crore ARR in 18 months. The WhatsApp checkout flow alone cut our RTO from 24 percent to 9."
Kunal Shah
Co-founder, Sleepy Owl Coffee
"Their creator-led ad library kept up with our spend in a way no in-house team has. Hindi-first creative outperformed English by nearly 2x in Tier 2 cities."
Aditi Saxena
Growth Director, Mamaearth
"60 crore in Diwali week, coordinated across Amazon, Flipkart, and DTC, with a 14-crore WhatsApp share. That is the kind of execution we were missing."

About Horizon Labs

Horizon Labs helps Indian D2C brands scale profitably through Meta, Google, and Amazon ads paired with WhatsApp Commerce funnels - the channel mix that actually moves the needle in India 2026.

What sets them apart

Horizon Labs has built one of India's largest WhatsApp Commerce practices, running verified API funnels for D2C brands selling across Tier 1, 2, and 3 cities. The team understands the actual unit economics that work in India: COD-to-prepaid conversion flows, RTO (return-to-origin) reduction via WhatsApp confirmation, and Amazon Sponsored Brands plus Flipkart Ads spend allocation that respects each platform's different conversion tax. They have a roster of 350 vetted regional creators producing in 7 Indian languages and run multilingual paid media at a Hindi-first cadence rather than English-translated campaigns.

Sleepy Owl Coffee scaled to INR 84Cr ARR with WhatsApp-led D2C

F&B

Client: Sleepy Owl Coffee

INR 84Cr ARR
-15pt RTO
41% WA orders

Challenge

A premium D2C coffee brand was stuck at INR 28Cr ARR with 62% revenue concentration on Amazon. RTO on COD orders was 24%, eating margin and inventory.

Approach

Horizon migrated 70% of new orders onto a WhatsApp checkout flow with prepaid-incentive offers. Built a Hindi-first creator program with 80 lifestyle creators across Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore. Layered Amazon Sponsored Display retargeting to recover abandoned carts.

Result

ARR grew from INR 28Cr to INR 84Cr in 18 months. RTO dropped from 24% to 9%. WhatsApp now drives 41% of net new orders at 22% lower CAC than Meta direct.

Mamaearth cut Meta CAC by 33% via creator-led ad library

Beauty

Client: Mamaearth

-33% CAC
14-day refresh
1.8x Hindi CTR

Challenge

Mamaearth was running a high-spend Meta program but creative production could not keep up. Ad fatigue hit at 11 days and CAC was rising 6% month-on-month.

Approach

Built a creator-led ad library producing 60 fresh assets per week from 200 contracted creators in 6 languages. Restructured campaigns into themed creative pods with weekly rotation and automated burnout detection.

Result

CAC dropped 33% in the first quarter. Creative refresh cycle stabilized at 14 days. Hindi-first ads outperformed English by 1.8x CTR in Tier 2 and 3 cities.

BoAt Lifestyle drove INR 60Cr in Diwali week via Amazon + WhatsApp

Consumer electronics

Client: BoAt Lifestyle

INR 60Cr in 7 days
+37% YoY
INR 14Cr WA share

Challenge

A consumer audio brand needed to maximize Diwali week sell-through across Amazon, Flipkart, and DTC simultaneously without cannibalizing margin.

Approach

Coordinated a 7-day push: Amazon Sponsored Brands and DSP for marketplace, WhatsApp broadcast to 4M opt-ins for DTC with bundle exclusives, Meta retargeting to bridge the two. Used per-channel creative tailored to platform expectations.

Result

INR 60Cr revenue in Diwali week, +37% versus prior year. WhatsApp drove INR 14Cr at the highest margin tier. Amazon search rank improved across 18 priority SKUs.
