WhatsApp AI agents that answer, sell and book.

A WhatsApp AI agent is an assistant connected to your WhatsApp Business and your systems — CRM, calendar, ERP — that doesn’t just answer questions: it understands what each customer needs and takes the action, such as qualifying a lead, booking a demo, confirming an order or sending a payment reminder, and logs everything. At Spidev we design it, connect it to your stack and operate it.

What an AI agent does on WhatsApp

• Replies instantly, at any hour, in your brand’s voice and rules.
• Qualifies every lead against your ideal customer and logs it in your CRM.
• Books demos, appointments or reservations straight into your calendar.
• Follows up: reminders, confirmations and messages that revive conversations.
• Sends payment reminders and logs every follow-up.
• Escalates to a person on your team when the conversation needs it, with full context.

WhatsApp chatbot vs. AI agent

A traditional chatbot follows a menu and gets stuck as soon as the customer writes something off-script. An AI agent understands natural language, checks your systems in real time and takes action: instead of saying “an agent will contact you”, it books the meeting and updates the CRM in the same conversation.

Connects to what you already use

The agent works on WhatsApp and integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Calendar, Calendly, Gmail, Shopify, Mercado Pago, SAP and the rest of the 128+ tools we connect. If your operation runs several WhatsApp lines, inboxes or CRMs, we connect them all without crossing wires.

Use cases by team

• Sales: instant replies to leads, qualification, demo booking and an up-to-date CRM. AI agents for sales.
• Customer support: contextual replies, triage and escalation. AI agents for support.
• Collections: payment reminders with data from your ERP and every follow-up logged. AI agents for finance & operations.

Secure and under your control

The agent only has the permissions you decide in each tool. Access is handled with OAuth and encrypted keys, with no exposed passwords, and only your team sees your conversations and customers.

WhatsApp rules and costs in 2026

Meta allows AI that serves your customers on WhatsApp Business; what it prohibits is offering general-purpose AI assistants. It also charges per message and, since October 2026, charges for messages that used to be free. We explain it with sources in AI agents on WhatsApp Business in 2026.

Rates vary by country: as of October 2026, a utility message — and a service message, from the 1,001st each month per number — costs US$0.0085 in Mexico, US$0.0008 in Colombia, US$0.0200 in Chile, US$0.0300 in Peru and US$0.0260 in Argentina. The full table and an example of what an agent uses per month are in how much AI implementation costs.

Why companies choose Spidev

• We build and we operate. You don’t get a prototype and a handoff: we take the agents to production, monitor them and tune them as your operation changes. We stay accountable for the results they deliver.
• Fixed price before we charge. The first consultation is free and the proposal comes with fixed scope, timeline and price. If we don’t see a clear case, we tell you.
• In production in weeks, not months. We work in short cycles so you see real results from the start, not slide decks.
• With the tools you already use. WhatsApp, CRM, ERP, email and spreadsheets: we connect 128+ integrations without making you switch systems.
• Your team stays in control. Least-privilege permissions, OAuth and encrypted keys, every action logged, and a person approves anything that matters.
• No model lock-in. We run Claude, GPT or whichever model performs best for your operation, and swap it without migrations when a better one appears.
