Send WhatsApp messages from email
Email Carly with a contact name and message, and she'll send it via WhatsApp — no need to pick up your phone or switch apps.
Follow up with clients automatically
Tell Carly to send a WhatsApp follow-up after a meeting, a proposal, or a missed call. She'll handle the timing and the message.
Relay updates from other tools
Ask Carly to pull a status update from your CRM, project tracker, or calendar and send it to a contact on WhatsApp — all in one request.
Coordinate with vendors and partners
Send order confirmations, delivery updates, or quick questions to vendors on WhatsApp by emailing Carly instead of typing on your phone.
Why businesses are using AI to manage WhatsApp
WhatsApp is the default communication channel for billions of people — and increasingly for businesses handling sales inquiries, client updates, vendor coordination, and team check-ins. But keeping up with WhatsApp conversations while juggling email, CRM updates, and project management means constant context-switching. Messages pile up, follow-ups slip through the cracks, and important threads get buried under group chat noise.
An AI assistant that connects to WhatsApp lets you send messages, trigger follow-ups, and relay information across tools without unlocking your phone. Instead of manually typing updates into WhatsApp while you're on a call or in the middle of deep work, you email Carly and she handles the messaging for you.
How Carly works as your AI WhatsApp assistant
Connect WhatsApp to Carly from your dashboard using the WhatsApp Business API. Once linked, you can send WhatsApp messages to any contact by emailing or texting Carly with the recipient and the message. She sends it through your WhatsApp Business account, so it comes from your number.
The real value is in cross-tool workflows. You can tell Carly to "send the project status update from Asana to Maria on WhatsApp" and she'll pull the data and send the message in one step. Or ask her to follow up with a client after a meeting ends — she'll check your calendar, draft a WhatsApp message with the key takeaways, and send it.
This is different from WhatsApp's built-in quick replies or chatbot builders. Carly isn't a bot that lives inside WhatsApp — she's an external assistant you message over email, and she takes actions across WhatsApp and your other connected tools on your behalf.
Who this is for
Founders and sales teams who use WhatsApp to communicate with clients and prospects but lose track of follow-ups. Agencies managing client relationships across WhatsApp and email simultaneously. International teams where WhatsApp is the primary business communication channel. If you spend your day bouncing between WhatsApp and other tools, Carly consolidates those actions into a single email thread.

What is the best AI tool for WhatsApp?
Carly is an AI assistant that connects to WhatsApp and lets you send messages, follow up with contacts, and relay information from other tools — all by email or text. Unlike WhatsApp chatbots that operate inside the app, Carly works from outside and can coordinate across your CRM, calendar, project tools, and WhatsApp in a single request.
Can AI send WhatsApp messages for me?
Yes. With Carly, you email or text the message and the recipient, and Carly sends it through your WhatsApp Business account. The message comes from your number, so contacts see it as a normal WhatsApp message from you.
How does Carly connect to WhatsApp?
Carly connects through the WhatsApp Business API. Go to your Carly dashboard, click Connect next to WhatsApp, and follow the setup steps. Once connected, you can send messages to any contact by emailing Carly.
Is Carly different from a WhatsApp chatbot?
Yes. WhatsApp chatbots live inside the app and respond to incoming messages with scripted flows. Carly is an external AI assistant you email or text — she sends outbound WhatsApp messages on your behalf and can pull in context from other connected tools like your CRM, calendar, or project tracker.
Can Carly read my WhatsApp messages?
Carly sends outbound messages through your WhatsApp Business account. She doesn't passively monitor or read your incoming WhatsApp conversations.
Can I use Carly to message WhatsApp groups?
Carly can send messages to individual contacts and supported group chats through the WhatsApp Business API. Specify the recipient or group in your email and she'll deliver the message.
