## What it is
A Python CLI tool that uses Selenium to track when WhatsApp contacts go online/offline, logging presence sessions to SQLite. It exports data to Excel/JSON and generates an HTML analytics dashboard with heatmaps and per-contact statistics.

## Use cases
- track when a whatsapp contact goes online
- log whatsapp online offline events
- monitor whatsapp last seen status
- export whatsapp presence history to excel
- generate analytics dashboard for whatsapp activity
- osint investigation of whatsapp presence

## When to choose
- you need automated, headless logging of WhatsApp presence sessions over time
- you want structured SQLite storage with Excel/JSON exports and visual analytics
- you're doing OSINT research on presence patterns

## When to avoid
- you need message content or end-to-end encrypted data - this only tracks presence
- you want a compliant or consent-based monitoring solution
- you can't run a browser session authenticated to WhatsApp Web
- you intend to use it for stalking or harassment, which is illegal and against the project's disclaimer
