AI for customer service on WhatsApp

Andavor puts an AI to work on your store’s WhatsApp, with your business number. It answers with your store’s real data, remembers what the customer already said and builds the order. Once your payment provider and your carrier are integrated, it also quotes shipping and creates the charge in your own account. You can take over any conversation whenever you want.

What the AI does on WhatsApp

  • Answers with your store’s real data, without writing figures off the top of its head.
  • Follows the conversation: the chosen product, the ZIP code and the payment method stay organized, and the customer doesn’t have to repeat what they already said.
  • Listens to the audio and looks at the photos the customer sends before answering.
  • Builds the order with the items, shipping and total. Once your carrier is integrated, it quotes real shipping by ZIP code.
  • Once your payment provider is integrated, it creates the charge in your own account, and the money goes straight to you. A payment below the total doesn’t complete the order.

How to connect your store’s WhatsApp

In the dashboard, the WhatsApp connection (Conectar WhatsApp) asks how you want to connect. There are two ways:

  • Official WhatsApp from Meta, the option the screen recommends: you log in with your company’s Facebook and choose the business and the number. If the number is already on the WhatsApp Business app on your phone, it keeps working there; leave the app open for a few minutes while Meta links the number to Andavor.
  • By QR code, like WhatsApp Web: on the store’s phone, open WhatsApp, go to Settings, then Linked devices and Link a device, and point the camera at the code. With the dashboard open on that same phone, you use an 8-character code instead of the QR code.
  • On the Meta route, WhatsApp may ask for a 6-digit PIN to link the number. Andavor only passes it on to WhatsApp and doesn’t keep it.
  • The connection is done in the browser, on a computer or a phone.
  • After connecting, the screen asks whether you want to turn the attendant on now or leave it for later.

You stay in charge

  • You can take over any conversation in the dashboard (Assumir conversa), in the browser on a computer or a phone. The AI stays quiet in it until you hand it back (Devolver para a IA).
  • If you reply from the dashboard, the conversation passes to you: the AI stays quiet in it until you hand it back. The same happens when someone at the store replies from the store’s WhatsApp on the phone.
  • It answers during the hours you choose, and you can pause WhatsApp or turn it back on whenever you want.
  • Contacts you add to the never-reply list don’t get answers from the AI.
  • Every answer keeps a record of what was checked to produce it: price, shipping, order status.

When it doesn’t know

It doesn’t make things up: price, stock and shipping come from a lookup in the system. When it passes the conversation to your team is up to you, in the Instructions.

  • A conversation it passes to your team shows up in your dashboard as waiting for you (Precisa de você), and the AI stays quiet in it until you hand it back.
  • In an open conversation in the dashboard, you can ask your attendant where an answer came from. When you tell it what’s right, it proposes the fix where that information lives, and nothing changes until you apply it.

It learns your store

It learns from what you teach it: the store’s website, documents and images. Only what you check goes into customer service.

Questions

Do I need a new number to use AI on WhatsApp?

No. By QR code, you link the WhatsApp that’s already on the store’s phone to Andavor, like WhatsApp Web. With the official WhatsApp from Meta, you choose the number in Meta’s window; if it’s already on the WhatsApp Business app on your phone, it keeps working there.

Can I reply to customers myself?

Yes. When you reply from the dashboard, or someone at the store replies from the store’s WhatsApp on the phone, the conversation passes to your team and the AI stays quiet in it. To have it answer again, hand the conversation back to the AI.

Is there a cost to use Meta’s official WhatsApp?

Your Andavor plan covers the platform and AI usage up to the plan’s limit. On the official WhatsApp, Meta charges its WhatsApp fees, and free tiers and allowances follow Meta’s rules. Andavor’s plans are on the pricing page.
