WBOT is a Node.js-based bot for WhatsApp Web that automates message replies using Puppeteer to control a browser. It is configurable via a JSON file and ships as downloadable binaries for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Use cases

  • automatically reply to whatsapp messages
  • build a whatsapp chatbot without the official api
  • auto-download whatsapp media files
  • run multiple whatsapp bot instances
  • customize automated whatsapp replies via config

When to choose

  • you want a free, self-hosted whatsapp auto-responder with full data privacy
  • you need a simple json-configurable bot that works on desktop platforms
  • you prefer browser automation over the official whatsapp business api

When to avoid

  • you need an officially supported whatsapp business api integration
  • you require a headless server without a display and cannot use xvfb
  • you need guaranteed stability, since whatsapp web changes can break the bot
