A tutorial-style repository and starter code for building AI-powered WhatsApp bots in pure Python using the Meta WhatsApp Cloud API, Flask, and OpenAI. It walks through sending messages, configuring webhooks, securing payloads, and integrating LLM-generated responses.

Use cases

  • build a whatsapp chatbot in python
  • integrate openai with whatsapp messages
  • receive whatsapp messages via webhooks
  • send automated whatsapp replies with the meta cloud api
  • learn to build an ai assistant on whatsapp
  • secure and validate whatsapp webhook payloads

When to choose

  • you want a guided, code-first introduction to the WhatsApp Cloud API in Python
  • you need a minimal Flask-based starting point for an LLM-backed WhatsApp bot
  • you prefer pure Python over heavier bot frameworks

When to avoid

  • you need a production-grade, batteries-included bot framework with multi-channel support
  • you want a no-code or low-code bot builder
  • you target platforms other than WhatsApp
