WhatsApp

WhatsApp follow-up inside your outreach sequences.

Link your existing WhatsApp number by scanning a QR code, add plain-text message steps to a sequence, and handle replies in the same inbox as every other channel. No WhatsApp Business API is required.

AvailableIncluded in Pro and Scale

Requires an active Pro, Scale, or Enterprise plan.

What you get

QR-based connection

Link a standard WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business app account with a QR code, the same way you add a linked device.

Plain-text message steps

Add plain-text WhatsApp message steps to a sequence.

International phone numbers

Messages send to contact phone numbers in E.164 format with a country code.

Daily and weekly limits

Each account starts at 50 messages a day, and per-account daily and weekly limits pace WhatsApp activity.

Account management

Sync, reconnect, or remove a connected WhatsApp account at any time.

Unified inbox and webhooks

Replies land in the unified inbox, and sequence-linked replies can trigger a webhook.
