AI agents on WhatsApp: how to automate sales and support without losing the human touch
Description and use
<blockquote> <p><strong>In short:</strong> an AI agent on WhatsApp answers, qualifies and serves your customers 24/7 using your business's real information (catalog, prices, inventory, calendar, order status) and hands the conversation to a person when needed. Built well, it cuts response times from hours to seconds and frees your team from repetitive questions. Built badly, it makes up answers and burns your customer relationships. The difference comes down to three things: connected data, clear limits and human handoff.</p> </blockquote> <h2> Chatbot vs. AI agent: not the same thing </h2> <p
