πŸš€ How We Built an Omnichannel Customer Engagement Platform

In 2023, we started building Whautomate, an all-in-one customer engagement and automation platform that brings together WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, and Live Chat β€” all in one unified inbox.

Why We Built It
We noticed many businesses were struggling to manage leads, bookings, and customer conversations scattered across multiple apps. Traditional CRMs weren’t built for real-time messaging or platforms like WhatsApp and Instagram DMs.

So we built Whautomate to solve that:

πŸ“… Book appointments or classes directly via chat

πŸ€– Build AI chatbots powered by GPT with business context

πŸ“£ Run targeted broadcasts and follow-ups

🧾 Send invoices and collect payments

πŸ›’ Even run a WhatsApp storefront

Self-Funded. Bootstrapped. Built for SMBs.

Our mission is to make powerful automation tools accessible to small businesses. No bloated CRMs, no unnecessary complexity.

If you're working on a product that brings real-time automation to small businesses, would love to connect and hear your journey too.
