What it does

Your front desk on WhatsApp, without the missed messages

Answers questions

Prices, services, hours and FAQs, straight from your own information. It never makes up an answer.

Books appointments

Checks real availability in your calendar and books the time your client picks.

Routes to the right person

Sends each enquiry to the team member who handles it: by area, service, listing or anything you choose.

Alerts your team

The right person gets a WhatsApp alert with the client’s name, number and what they need.

Hands over to a person

When a client asks for a person, complains or needs something special, your team takes over.

Works your hours

Only offers times you’re open, skips public holidays and keeps the notice period you set.

Speaks your clients’ language

Replies in the language your client writes in, in short, friendly WhatsApp messages.

Understands voice notes

Clients can send a voice note in English or Afrikaans, as well as isiZulu or isiXhosa, and get a written reply.

Keeps a record

Every conversation is saved in a Google Sheet that you own, with a summary, the outcome and the full chat, next to every booking and hand-over.

Reports on WhatsApp

Managers get a weekly or monthly report: how many conversations, how many came after hours, and bookings and hand-overs per team member.

Sends notices

Sends updates to clients or residents who opted in, like a water outage or a new opening. Your team confirms every send, and anyone can reply STOP.

Keeps a waiting list

When you’re full, it adds interested clients to a waiting list with their consent, and your team alerts them when a place opens.

Try it yourself

Tap a chat and be the client

Seven example conversations. The businesses are made up, but everything the agent does in them, it does for real: bookings, hand-overs, voice notes, Afrikaans, waiting lists, notices and reports.

    Questions

    What businesses ask us

    What does it cost?

    It depends on the size of your team and what the agent connects to, so we quote after a short, free call. WhatsApp doesn’t charge for replies to your clients; each WhatsApp alert to your team carries a small Meta fee.

    Can I keep my current WhatsApp number, or do I need a new one?

    You choose. Keep your current number: we move it to WhatsApp’s official Business Platform, so your clients keep messaging the number they already know. It then can’t be used in the WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business app on a phone any more. A landline works too. Or use a new number: a new SIM just for the agent, and your current number stays as it is. We’ll talk you through both on the call.

    What if it doesn’t know the answer?

    It only answers from the information you give it. If it isn’t sure, or a client asks for a person, it hands the conversation to the right team member and tells the client who will contact them.

    Can I change prices, hours or staff myself?

    Yes. Everything the agent knows lives in a Google Sheet that you own. Change a price, add a public holiday or a new team member, and it uses the new information on the next message.

    How is my clients’ information handled?

    Bookings and contact details are kept in your own Google Sheet and calendar. We help you put a POPIA privacy notice in place for your clients, and we sign an operator agreement covering how we handle the data. See our privacy policy.
