A WhatsApp AI agent that answers from your business knowledge — and knows when to hand over
Customers message at all hours and ask the same questions in a hundred different ways. The AI agent handles the repeatable part and gives your team the conversations that matter.
Quick answer
BOOTS Automation lets you run an AI agent on your WhatsApp business number. It answers customers from your own knowledge base, asks qualification questions, books appointments and hands conversations to your team in a shared inbox when a person is needed. You choose the AI provider and connect it with your own API key.

Frequently asked questions
Is using an AI agent on WhatsApp allowed?
Yes, when the AI serves your own business — answering about your products and services, bookings and support. Meta's terms bar general-purpose AI assistants offered as the product itself.
Do I need a developer?

Can I review what the AI says?
