Message Them on WhatsApp
WhatsApp is the planned mobile messaging channel for talking with an AI employee. It will bring the same employee memory and guardrails to WhatsApp conversations, but it is not connected yet.
TL;DR
WhatsApp messaging is planned for AI employees. The channel is not enabled yet. Use web chat, Telegram, Slack, or the mailbox while it is unavailable.

When released, incoming messages will route to a selected employee and replies will return to the same WhatsApp conversation. Existing skills, tools, and safety controls will still apply.
What It Can Do
- Receive direct WhatsApp messages.
- Reply in the same conversation.
- Continue work started in another supported channel.
How to Set It Up
Setup is not available yet. After launch, open Settings > Technical > Channels, choose WhatsApp, and use Manage for the account connection and employee mapping.
Tips & Tricks
Use Telegram for a similar mobile-first experience today. Keep channel-specific credentials in the Manage drawer rather than sharing them in chat.
Good to Know
The card shows Coming soon and does not display activity or a toggle while the integration is unavailable.
