WhatsApp AI Agent Integration
WhatsApp is the primary business channel across the Middle East. Wakeeli connects to the official WhatsApp Business Cloud API, so your AI agent replies in seconds, understands Arabic dialects and voice notes, and escalates to a human whenever your rules say so.
Why this matters
Official Cloud API
Meta-approved connection, no unofficial workarounds.
Voice notes understood
Arabic voice messages are transcribed and answered.
Human handoff
Any keyword, sentiment or intent can route to your team.
Templates and campaigns
Reminders, updates and re-engagement inside policy.
