WhatsApp that answers back —
by chat and by call.
WABA1 is CloudZA's fully-managed WhatsApp channel — a shared team inbox, AI-assisted replies, and a voice AI that answers your WhatsApp calls. Hosted in South Africa, compliant by design.
Live today, not a roadmap slide
Your customers are already on WhatsApp.
Most businesses still run it off one phone.
No roles, no audit trail, no way to prove who said what — and every call outside business hours goes unanswered.
One phone, no roles
A single shared device with no ownership, no handoff, and no record of who replied to what.
Missed after-hours calls
Customers who want to talk, not type, get nothing outside office hours — and most never call back.
No compliance trail
No audit logging, no access control, no proof of what was said — a real problem the moment a regulator asks.
One console. Three ways it helps.
Every conversation, one place
Every WhatsApp conversation in one shared inbox, organised by department, with clear ownership so nothing slips.
Drafted for you, sent by you
The AI drafts a ready-to-send reply grounded in your own business content — your agent reviews, tweaks, and sends.
Answers the phone, too
Customers can call your WhatsApp number and talk to an AI that actually helps — and hand off to your team any time.
An AI that answers your WhatsApp calls.

Your team + AI handle it

One console, everything
Every conversation, call, and lead lands in one place — organised, ticketed, and auditable.
Built for regulated industries, not just chat.

Especially suited to regulated industries with high inbound WhatsApp volume.

Common questions.
A fully-managed WhatsApp platform for your business: a shared team inbox, AI that drafts replies, and a voice AI that answers WhatsApp calls — all hosted in South Africa.
Yes. Customers can call your WhatsApp number and have a real spoken conversation with an AI that answers questions about your business, captures their details, and hands off to your team when needed. Your agents can listen in and take over any call.
No — it's human-in-the-loop by design. For chat, the AI drafts replies that a person reviews and sends. On calls, it hands off to a human on request. It only answers from your own business content and is instructed not to make things up.
All your data is stored in South Africa (AWS Cape Town), encrypted, with strict separation between clients. The platform is POPIA-aware by design — in-region data, role-based access, audit logging, and guardrails around sensitive information.
Yes. It's built on Meta's official WhatsApp Cloud API as a sanctioned Tech Provider integration — not a grey-market bridge or an automated personal-WhatsApp hack.
Through Meta's official "Login with Facebook" onboarding, right in the console — an admin does it in a few minutes, no engineers required.
Yes — that's the point. Everyone works from one shared inbox, organised by department, with clear ownership so two people don't reply at once and nothing gets lost.
Yes — during a call or chat the AI collects a prospect’s name, email, company, and needs, and files it against that contact in your console.
Staff sign in with corporate SSO plus two-factor authentication, enforced on every action. Roles control who can do what.
Those are on the roadmap, not live today. What's live is the inbox, AI reply assist, the voice AI, lead capture, onboarding, and analytics.
