Why teams pick SheetWA MCP

Built on the official WhatsApp Business API, with the guard rails a business needs before it lets an AI near its customers.

Nothing to install

A hosted server over HTTP. Add the URL to your AI app and it works. Updates reach you on their own.

You decide who gets a key

The owner or an admin gives each key to one person and picks View or Change per area. Members can't create keys.

Send limits built in

Each key can send 20 messages a minute and 500 a day, so a confused assistant can't flood your customers.

Every change is logged

Sends and edits are recorded with the key that made them, and messages show as sent by an agent.

How it fits together

Your AI app talks to SheetWA. SheetWA talks to WhatsApp. Your WhatsApp login never leaves SheetWA.
