WuzAPI is a self-hosted RESTful API service for WhatsApp built on the Whatsmeow multi-device library in Go. It exposes endpoints for sessions, messages, groups, users, and webhooks, communicating directly with WhatsApp's WebSocket servers without a browser or emulator.

Use cases

  • send whatsapp messages from my application via api
  • self-hosted whatsapp rest api without puppeteer
  • receive whatsapp messages via webhook
  • manage whatsapp groups programmatically
  • run multiple whatsapp sessions concurrently
  • send whatsapp media and stickers through an api
  • integrate whatsapp notifications into my backend

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight, fast WhatsApp API without headless Chrome or Android emulators
  • you want multi-device support with concurrent sessions
  • you prefer a self-hosted Go service with Docker support
  • you need webhook events with HMAC signature verification

When to avoid

  • you need an officially supported commercial solution - use the WhatsApp Business API instead
  • you cannot tolerate breakage when WhatsApp changes its protocol
  • you plan to send spam or bulk unsolicited messages, risking number bans
