WPPConnect is a Node.js/TypeScript library that exports WhatsApp Web functionality via Puppeteer, enabling message sending, session management, contact/group access, and bot building. The ecosystem also includes WPPConnect Server, a ready-to-use REST API with webhooks built on top of the library.

Use cases

  • send whatsapp messages from nodejs
  • build a whatsapp chatbot
  • whatsapp customer service automation
  • send media and documents via whatsapp api
  • manage multiple whatsapp sessions
  • expose whatsapp as a rest api with webhooks
  • receive and reply to whatsapp messages programmatically

When to choose

  • you need programmatic WhatsApp automation in Node.js without the official Business API
  • you want a self-hosted REST server with webhooks for WhatsApp sessions
  • you need multi-session support and media sending (text, image, video, audio, docs, stickers)

When to avoid

  • you require an officially supported, ToS-compliant WhatsApp integration for production at scale
  • you are not using JavaScript/Node.js or a compatible ecosystem
  • you cannot tolerate breakage from unofficial WhatsApp Web changes
