Two Ways to Connect to WhatsApp

Use the free Baileys-based WhatsApp Web API for lightweight bots and service chats, or the official Meta WhatsApp Cloud API for higher-volume business messaging with end-to-end encryption and advanced analytics.

Native Integrations, Not Just Webhooks

Connects directly to Typebot, Chatwoot, Dify, OpenAI, RabbitMQ, Apache Kafka, Amazon SQS, Socket.io, and Amazon S3/MinIO, plug messaging into your existing stack without building custom bridges.

Full Message History, Your Database

Instances, messages, contacts, chats, and labels are all persisted to your own bundled PostgreSQL, with Redis caching for performance, your conversation data stays on infrastructure you control.

Production-Ready, Not Just a Wrapper

Started as a WhatsApp controller built on the Baileys library, and has grown into a full messaging platform used as the WhatsApp provider for other Evolution Foundation projects like Evo CRM.
