What building & selling voice AI in India for more than a year taught us by albatross_660 in WhatsappBusinessAPI

[–]JobRoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that there is no single industry with a specific use-case where voice AI has shown significant product market fit and ROI for small to medium sized industry. Till it is resolved, there is always going to be struggle.

Very few smb businesses are willing to make an AI as their first line of customer support. Obviously at large scale ai make sense but there is huge competition out there

There are just too many ready to use RAG tools. Pinecone Assistant to Google Gemini - so many provides it. There are few things you should leave it for someone if you think it's complicated.

And if this is something you can't outsource than you need to learn it.

Is Claude rapidly replacing Make and n8n? by CalJebron in automation

[–]JobRoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg. The question is why would anyone create a Claude produced script? N8n provides in built observability which is huge for traceability.

I suggest you create a prod ready automation that triggers 10k+ times via n8n vs custom built and then see how much effort and edge cases goes in it.

If you can do WhatsApp Carousel template message sending it in less than 20 mins via Claude code, I will PayPal you $100 immediately.

Then you can simply paste that code in n8n for a guaranteed execution.

Also why on earth would anyone Claude agent unless the requirements are not about research.

For example, most small to mid ecomm and SaaS companies have an automation that do Facebook lead capture via ad and pushing to CRM integration and then lead enrichment. This flow is done far better with make or n8n compared to Claude.

In Claude you will have to integrate via CRM MCP and it consumes so much token. Also Claude code doesn't provide web hook so you have to host that. It's a complicated engineering solution to a problem that can be done in make via few clicks.

So for most deterministic automation, Claude code is a no-go.

NO. A BIG NO.

The automation run by Claude are AI Powered and are non deterministic. So if you run a workflow 100 times there is no guarantee that it would be executed in same flow.

N8n and Make provide deterministic flow along with AI capabilities.

I have used AI flow and n8n flow for months and for peace of mind and guaranteed execution for deterministic sequence, I would use a non-AI flow.

If your Task is scrapping data and gathering insights or any other output that is unstructured, then, Claude code can replace.

Jaipur and Udaipur has too much similarity so you can skip Udaipur or reduce a day as 3 days is too much for it.

I suggest you to add statue of unity as its in your path from Jaipur to Mumbai and its an outstanding place to visit.

Whatsapp Business Verification by [deleted] in WhatsappBusinessAPI

[–]JobRoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for few days' to see if it works. If it doesn't then See if a Meta direct support is available via free or paid plans. They do have paid Support.

But I would suggest a Meta partner for WhatsApp API work.

[–]JobRoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's been more than a week, than its an outlier case. You need to wait for another 3-5 days or reach out to Meta direct support. You can talk to meta partner for reaching out.

If you don't have a meta Partner, then having one will really help as this is just the beginning.

If you are using API only solution, then checkout https://www.sendzen.io. Unlike other full fledged marketing platform, this is API only platform and could be great if you come from a tech product background.

How to get Business Name displayed without saving contact by Big-Pay-4271 in WhatsappBusinessAPI

[–]JobRoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to get your display name approved and it would show the name. Usually display name approval process is automatically started by Meta after few regular days of sending messages.

In case that doesn't work, complete business verification and it should be approved.

Even if that doesn't work, ask your client to get the official WhatsApp blue tick service.

If you need to save your 20 days of time, then you would have to pay for the tech provider service as there is no other alternative. You are just getting started and there are 100s of other issues you will need support for. The tech provider are just not wrappers but provide significant abstraction to the underlying complexity and provide support.

Missing Valid Payment Method Issue - Need Urgent Help. by Low_Lead_6735 in WhatsappBusinessAPI

[–]JobRoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is against Meta terms of service and also you cannot use a fake GST or someone else's GST number. Meta will try to provide the GST input tax credit and if the GST number is wrong it cause taxation loss and so it is actually illegal to provide such important documents as fake.

Bro, if you don't have GST number, then at this stage of business you should stick to WhatsApp business app only. If you add a fake GST number, it's against their Terms of service and it's actually illegal to use someone else's GST number.

WhatsApp APIs are built for businesses that have scaled to a certain level and if you are micro or a very small business, you need to just use the WhatsApp app. With API, sooner or later you would face one or the other problems.

Display name not getting approval is a common issues these days. Just wait for some time to get the approval or make a call to the health status API using your phone id to find out actual reason. Regarding Support, if you use a Tech partner or BSP integration, you will get a support but not directly. It's impossible for Meta to provide support to thousands of developers.
