Automate the repetitive administrative tasks that consume your working day. Connected seamlessly with Google Sheets, Supabase, and your email.

Every website contact form and WhatsApp inquiry automatically captures into your Google Sheets, Supabase CRM, or Airtable. No manual data retyping, no lost contact numbers.

2. Automated Payment & Invoice Reminders

Recover outstanding cash flow effortlessly. Sends polite, scheduled WhatsApp reminders 3 days before and on the due date with PDF invoice links and instant payment details.

3. Document & Compliance Notifications

Automated alerts for CIPC annual return deadlines, SARS Tax Clearance PIN expiration, and B-BBEE renewals, keeping your business compliant and tender-ready all year round.

Legal South African Standing

POPIA Compliance & Data Security

Spamming customers on WhatsApp leads to immediate account bans and regulatory fines. We engineer enterprise-grade, customer-initiated conversation workflows that comply strictly with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA).

Explicit Customer-Initiated Conversations

Workflows trigger only when customers click your website widget, scan a QR code, or text your business.

Automated Opt-In & Opt-Out Handling

Clear 'STOP' triggers immediately unenroll contacts from automated follow-up sequences.

Encrypted South African Data Storage

Customer records and conversation logs are stored in secure, encrypted cloud databases adhering to POPIA standards.

POPIA Audit Guarantee

Zero Account Ban Risk

Unlike unofficial WhatsApp scraping scripts that get your business number permanently blocked by Meta, we only deploy through Meta's officially certified Cloud API infrastructure.

🛡️ Official Partner Guidance: We guide your business through official Meta Business Manager verification, green tick application readiness, and message template approval.
