Customers expect a reply in minutes, not hours. WhatsApp auto replies — from simple greeting messages to full AI chatbots — let you respond instantly while your team handles the conversations that need a human.
Auto replies on the WhatsApp Business App
- Greeting message — sent when someone messages you for the first time or after 14 days of inactivity.
- Away message — sent outside your business hours.
- Quick replies — shortcuts you trigger with / commands for common answers.
Auto replies on the WhatsApp Business API
- Welcome chatbot flows triggered on first message or ad click.
- AI-powered replies that understand free-text questions.

Automation should feel helpful, not robotic — always give customers a clear path to reach a real person.
