Answer WhatsApp group questions from your own documents

When someone tags the bot in a WhatsApp group, it answers using your own documents, kept up to date automatically.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

You keep repeating the same answers in group chats, and getting a proper business messaging account set up can take a long time. Meanwhile everyone in the group is getting slightly different information.

Who it fits

Small businesses, communities, or internal teams that field repeat questions inside WhatsApp groups.

How it works

  1. Someone tags the bot inside a WhatsApp group chat
  2. The system checks your uploaded documents for a relevant answer
  3. It responds with a context-aware answer, only when mentioned
  4. Your source documents in Google Drive are re-indexed automatically as they change
What you get

Questions answered instantly inside your WhatsApp group

Tag the bot in your WhatsApp group and get an answer pulled straight from your own documents right away.

What you get

An on-demand, accurate answer inside your WhatsApp group, sourced from your own documents.

What you need

A WhatsApp number, Google Drive, an OpenAI API key, and a Pinecone vector database.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
