A self-hosted RESTful WhatsApp API service built on the Baileys library with Express, supporting multiple devices. It lets developers send and receive WhatsApp messages programmatically via HTTP endpoints.

Use cases

  • send whatsapp messages from my app via api
  • self-host a whatsapp rest api
  • build a whatsapp bot with nodejs
  • whatsapp api with multiple device support
  • integrate whatsapp notifications into my backend
  • receive whatsapp messages via webhook

When to choose

  • you need a simple self-hosted WhatsApp REST API with multi-device support
  • you want to automate WhatsApp messaging without the official Business API
  • you prefer a Node.js/Express stack you can deploy with Docker

When to avoid
