Short answer

How can I automate WhatsApp messages with my AI?

Your AI uses pre-approved templates to send proactive updates and alerts directly to customers. You can trigger these messages based on any data your agent monitors. You'll see how this works in the breakdown below.

Notification outcomes

Where your messages land.

The AI manages the communication flow based on your triggers.

AUTOMATED

Instant alerts

The AI detects a trigger and immediately sends a template message. You get real-time updates without manual typing.

COMPLIANT

Template usage

The AI only uses pre-approved WhatsApp templates. This keeps your business messaging within official guidelines.

HUMAN

Manual review

You decide which triggers are sensitive enough to require a human check before the AI sends the message.

PROACTIVE

Customer updates

The AI pushes information to users before they have to ask. This keeps your customers informed about status changes.

The workflow

What your AI does when a trigger occurs.

The AI handles the selection and delivery of your messages.

  1. Find templates

    The AI looks through your available WhatsApp message options to find the right match for the current situation.
