BeAI

BeAI on WhatsApp for everyday enquiries.

Reply to written and voice messages on WhatsApp Business, take authorised actions and hand over to your team. Incoming calls depend on availability for your number.

Three ways to communicate on WhatsApp

Written messages

Answer questions using information you’ve approved, such as opening hours or details about your services.

Voice messages

When a voice message is received and downloaded, BeAI can understand it and reply in the conversation.

Incoming calls

Customers can call in WhatsApp when incoming calls are enabled and available for your number. Messaging can still work when calls are unavailable.

From a question to the right next step

Authorised business actions

With the relevant skills configured, the assistant can check availability or pass a request to your business software.

Human handover

An authorised team member can take over from the BeAI inbox when a request needs their attention.

One follow-up per session

If the inactivity prompt is enabled, BeAI asks “Do you have any other questions?” once. If there’s no reply, the session closes quietly without a closing message.

Connect your WhatsApp Business number

  1. In your BeAI assistant settings, enable the WhatsApp skill and select “Connect my WhatsApp”.
  2. In the Meta window, select your WhatsApp Business account and number, then complete the requested steps.
  3. Back in BeAI, check that messaging is connected and review the incoming call status separately.

Fictional examples

A written question or a voice message on WhatsApp

Here are ways to ask a question depending on the channel you use.

Written question

What time do you open on Saturday?

Get the information without having to search the website.

Voice message

Hello, I’d like to move my appointment to Friday.

Explain what you need aloud without having to type it.

BeAI can understand a voice message that it receives and downloads. During human handover, new voice messages stay in the history without automatic analysis.

Your team takes over

Human handover is configured in one place for WhatsApp, Messenger and web chat. It covers written messages and voice notes sent in chat. This feature excludes audio calls. Phone transfers follow a separate process.

  1. Request received

    When your rules call for it, BeAI creates a handover request for authorised colleagues.

  2. Waiting

    BeAI asks the person to wait. The AI pauses replies and actions while the request is waiting.

  3. Assigned to a colleague

    An authorised team member claims the conversation. They can reply or transfer it to an authorised colleague. The AI stays paused during human handling.

  4. Optional return to the assistant

    The team member can hand the conversation back to the AI. After human handling, the configured inactivity period can also let the assistant return on the next message.
