What is a WhatsApp voice agent?

An AI voice agent that answers voice calls made to your WhatsApp Business number. The customer taps call inside the chat they already have with you, with no phone number to dial. The agent answers from the same documents as your phone line, looks up records by the caller’s WhatsApp number and writes the transcript, recording and score into your CRM.

Your customers already chat with you on WhatsApp. Then they tap call.

A WhatsApp chat is where parents, applicants and customers start. When a question is easier said than typed they tap the call button, and on most business numbers nobody picks up. Asking them to ring a separate helpline instead loses many of them, especially after office hours.

Admission questions

Programmes, fees, eligibility and deadlines, from your prospectus.

Status checks

Application, fee or order status, looked up by the caller’s number.

How-to questions answered; the rest noted for your team.

The same agent as your phone line, on your WhatsApp number

A WhatsApp call uses the agent you have already set up: the same knowledge base, lookups, hours and write-up. The caller’s WhatsApp number does the job a phone number does.

  • Answers calls to your WhatsApp Business number once calling is turned on for it
  • Looks up the caller’s application, fee or order status in your system through its API, by their WhatsApp number
  • Answers inside the hours you set; outside them, the caller hears when to call back
  • Every call is recorded, transcribed, scored and sent to HubSpot or any system by signed webhook
  • A follow-up in the same chat from your approved WhatsApp templates: checklist, brochure, payment link

The customer starts the call, and the rules follow from that

The agent answers WhatsApp calls; it does not place them. A customer tapping call is not a business calling them, so there is no DLT registration and no DND scrubbing. Disclosure and data rules still apply.

It says it is an AI
Every call opens with that and the recording notice.
Only the customer can call
The agent never rings anyone on WhatsApp; it answers.
Records by the caller’s own number
Lookups return only the records of the number calling.
Your number, your business profile
Calls come to your verified WhatsApp Business number.

Before you put it on the phone

Does a WhatsApp call cost per minute?

WhatsApp does not charge your business for voice calls your customers start, so these calls carry no telephony charge per minute. The agent itself is priced as on your other lines.

Does a WhatsApp voice agent need DLT registration?

No. DLT registration, the 140 and 160 series and DND scrubbing govern calls a business places to a phone number. A customer calling your WhatsApp Business number is neither. The agent still says it is an AI and that the call is recorded.

Can the agent call customers on WhatsApp?

Not yet. Today it answers calls customers make to your WhatsApp number. For reminders and follow-ups it places ordinary phone calls, and it can send a WhatsApp message after any call.

Is it the same agent as our phone line?

It can be. One agent can answer your phone number, your website call button and your WhatsApp number with the same knowledge, voice and rules, and every call lands in the same reports.

Which languages does it speak on WhatsApp?

The same as on the phone: English, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada, and mixed Hindi and English.

Are WhatsApp calls recorded?

Yes. Each call is recorded and transcribed, and the recording plays from the call’s page next to its score and summary.

Pick up the next time a customer taps call on WhatsApp.

Tell us the WhatsApp number your customers already use and the questions they call with. We will set the agent up on your own documents for the demo.
