Take WhatsApp calls in your browser, right beside the chat

Customers already press the call button on WhatsApp. Autonicate rings every agent who handles that number, wherever they are in the app, and puts each call in the conversation it belongs to.

What you get

Rings on any page

An incoming call shows the caller's name and chat on every screen. The first person to answer takes it.

Answered quickly

The audio link is prepared while the phone is still ringing, so conversations start as soon as you press Answer.

Call customers back

Ask a customer for call permission from the chat, then call them from the same screen once they agree.

Call log with filters

Every call with direction, outcome, duration and agent. Filter by number, answered, missed or declined.

Missed-call automation

Send a WhatsApp message, alert the team or start a follow-up the moment a call goes unanswered.

Stop spam callers

Blocked contacts are declined automatically. They never ring your team.

How it works

  1. 1

    Turn on calling

    Switch calling on per number from WhatsApp numbers. Autonicate updates Meta's call settings for you.

  2. 2

    Keep a tab open

    Agents with access to that number hear the ring in their browser, with mute and a live timer.

  3. 3

    Follow up in the chat

    The call appears in the conversation timeline, so the next message has the full context.

WhatsApp calling: common questions

Is this the official WhatsApp Calling API?

Yes. Calls use Meta's WhatsApp Business Calling API on your own number. No unofficial apps or phone bridges are involved.

Do agents need a phone?

No. Calls are answered in a desktop browser with a headset or the computer's microphone.

Can we call customers first?

Yes, after the customer grants call permission. You can send the permission request from the chat, and WhatsApp shows the customer a prompt to allow calls.
