The problem it solves

Keeping track of who joins or leaves your WhatsApp community by hand is tedious and easy to forget. Without a record, you can't see growth trends or know who to follow up with when they leave.

Who it fits

Community managers running WhatsApp groups who need membership records.

How it works

  1. A member joining or leaving a monitored WhatsApp group starts the process
  2. The user's name, phone number, and event type are captured
  3. The details are formatted with a timestamp
  4. The event is logged as a new row in your Google Sheet
What you get

Membership changes recorded without anyone watching the group

Every time someone joins or leaves your WhatsApp group, the details land automatically in your spreadsheet.

What you get

An always up-to-date log of group membership changes in Google Sheets.

What you need

A 2Chat account with a connected WhatsApp number and admin access to the group, plus a Google Sheets account.

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.
