WhatsApp AI Chatbot
Answer WhatsApp messages automatically, through either of two routes: pair a number you already use by scanning a QR code, or connect an official WhatsApp Business number through Meta. They are different trade-offs, and the dashboard shows them as two separate cards.
The QR route works today, anywhere
Pairing links a WhatsApp number you already have by scanning a code, the way WhatsApp Web does. No Meta account, no business verification, no country restrictions, and it runs on the number your customers already message. It is unofficial: WhatsApp can unlink the device whenever it likes, and ProxyAI says so in the dialog rather than in the small print. For a smaller operation that is usually an acceptable trade for starting the same day.
The official route, when you need the guarantee
The Meta route is the WhatsApp Business Platform proper. It takes longer to set up and it involves Meta's own review, and in exchange nothing can quietly unlink it. If WhatsApp is the channel your business actually runs on, that durability is the thing you are buying.

WhatsApp questions we get asked
- Will pairing log me out of WhatsApp on my phone?
- No. Pairing adds a linked device, exactly like using WhatsApp Web. Your phone keeps working normally.
- Which route should I start with?
- The QR bridge if you want to see it working today. Move to the official Meta number when WhatsApp becomes a channel you cannot afford to have drop.
- Can the bot hand a conversation to a person?
- Yes, with the Human Handoff add-on, the bot steps back and a member of your team takes the thread.
