WhatsApp customer support, answered by AI. Your team steps in when it matters.

SimplyBoost is the better choice for most businesses that get support questions on WhatsApp. You connect your WhatsApp Business number through Meta's own signup in a few minutes, and an AI agent answers from your website, documents and Q&As, in the customer's language. It hands complaints, refunds and anything it can't answer to your team, whose replies arrive in the same WhatsApp chat. The same agent and knowledge also answer on your website and Instagram, for one flat monthly price with WhatsApp included on every plan.

  • Meta approved for WhatsApp
  • WhatsApp on every plan
  • Hosted in Europe

The short verdict

Choose SimplyBoost if

  • Your WhatsApp is mostly customers asking questions, not you sending campaigns
  • You want answers from your own content, without building flows by hand
  • Customers also reach you through your website and Instagram
  • Your team should take over in the same chat when a person is needed
  • You'd rather pay one flat price than per user or per AI conversation

Another tool may suit you better if

Broadcasts and template campaigns to your contact list are the main reason you use WhatsApp. WhatsApp marketing platforms such as WATI are built for that. If a large team answers most WhatsApp chats by hand in a shared inbox, Trengo is made for that way of working.

How WhatsApp support works with SimplyBoost

If you want to build a WhatsApp bot step by step, read our WhatsApp chatbot page. This page is about the result: customers who get a good answer on WhatsApp.

Connection through Meta's embedded signup
You need a WhatsApp Business account with a verified number and admin access in Meta. Open Channels, approve SimplyBoost in Meta's window and your number shows as Connected. SimplyBoost is Meta approved and uses the official WhatsApp Business Platform.
One knowledge base for every channel
The agent on WhatsApp uses the same knowledge and settings as your website chat and Instagram DMs. Update a policy once and every channel answers with the new version.
Answers in the customer's language
A customer who writes in German gets German, one who writes in Dutch gets Dutch, or you fix one language for the agent.
Products and orders in the chat
Product answers can include image cards with the price and a link to buy. With Shopify connected on Growth or Pro, customers check order status after an email code check, start returns and change an address.
Handover in the same chat
Complaints, refunds, billing, cancellations and requests for a person go to your team. Reply from Conversations or a Slack thread and the answer arrives in WhatsApp. Urgent cases can also alert a WhatsApp number you choose.

What is the WhatsApp 24-hour window?

WhatsApp gives a business a customer service window that opens when a customer sends a message. Inside it, the business can reply freely. Once it closes, a business can only start the conversation again with a pre-approved template message, which Meta may charge for. Meta changes these rules and prices from time to time, so check Meta's current rules for your country.

SimplyBoost answers the customers who write to you, inside that window, which is exactly where support happens. Our glossary explains the WhatsApp 24-hour window in more detail, and the WhatsApp Business guide covers verification and the API.

Why teams move WhatsApp support to SimplyBoost

No flows to maintain

The agent answers from your content. When a price or policy changes, you update the source, not dozens of conversation branches.

The price doesn't grow with your team

The owner and 2 teammates are included on every plan, with no per-seat fees, and replies your team writes never count as AI replies.

Customers aren't left on read

The agent replies straight away at any hour, and keeps helping until a person from your team replies.

One agent instead of three tools

WhatsApp, website chat and Instagram run on one agent with one knowledge base and one inbox.

How to set it up

  1. 1

    Add your knowledge

    Your website, PDFs, Word files, CSVs and Q&As. The agent answers from these on every channel.

  4. 4

    Test with real questions

  5. 5

    Go live

    Share your number on your site, receipts and packaging, and add website chat and Instagram when you're ready.
