WhatsApp AI Agents for Business Conversations

Turn routine business conversations into a clearer, more manageable customer journey. SmartPLC Solutions can scope a WhatsApp AI agent to answer approved questions, collect enquiry details and route conversations to your team through a supported business setup.

Organise common customer conversations in a channel your business is authorized to use.

Designed around your operation

A practical AI assistant for whatsapp

Customer messages can arrive at any time and include a mix of simple questions, sales enquiries and requests that need a person. Without agreed response boundaries, routing and account setup, automation may create confusion.

How the service can help

We define the use case, information sources, escalation rules and account requirements first. WhatsApp automation is implemented only through an appropriate supported WhatsApp Business integration with the necessary permissions and platform configuration.

  • Respond to approved frequently asked questions
  • Collect enquiry details and identify the reason for contact
  • Route conversations to the appropriate team or human operator
  • Provide guided information and links to relevant business pages
  • Assess approved workflow connections where APIs, access and configuration are available

Built for useful day-to-day support

Approve the knowledge sources, handoff rules, response limits and any workflow connections.

STEP 04

Test message flows and error cases with the business, then agree how responses and account configuration are maintained.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with a regular WhatsApp account?

Business automation should use an appropriate supported WhatsApp Business integration. Account eligibility, provider setup and platform rules must be checked.

Can the agent send messages first?

Outbound messaging depends on the applicable WhatsApp Business rules, customer permissions, approved templates where required and provider configuration.

Can it transfer a chat to staff?

A human handoff can be included when the selected integration and operating process support it. The destination and ownership need to be defined.

Can it connect to a CRM or order system?

That depends on available APIs, credentials, data permissions and technical suitability. No external connection is presumed until reviewed.

Will it answer every customer question automatically?

The agent should answer within approved boundaries and route unclear, sensitive or unsupported requests to a person.

What is needed to start?

Describe the customer journeys, business account setup, information sources, staff handoff process and any systems you want assessed.
