WhatsApp AI assistant
Your WhatsApp AI assistant, inside ChatGPT and Claude
Link WhatsApp once, then ask ChatGPT, Claude or any AI app that supports MCP to catch you up, find old messages and draft replies. Nothing is sent until you approve it.
Free to start. No install. Every send needs your OK.
What your AI can do with WhatsApp
ConnectChats gives your AI app a small set of tools. These are the ones it uses with WhatsApp, and only for the chats you share.
-
See your chats
Your AI lists the WhatsApp chats you shared, unread first, so it knows where to look before it answers.
list_chats -
Read a conversation
Ask about one chat and your AI reads what you have not seen yet, or goes further back when you need the history.

Catch you up
Get the short version of a busy chat: what was decided, which questions are open and what needs your answer.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Find any message
Search your WhatsApp history by word, name or topic. Your AI quotes the message and tells you which chat it came from.

Draft replies
Your AI writes a reply in the chat's language and your tone. It is saved as a draft you can read and edit.

Send with your OK
Approve a draft and ConnectChats sends it from your own WhatsApp account. Auto-send only runs in chats where you turn it on.

Pick the chats your AI can see
Share every chat or only a few. Your AI never sees the rest, and you can stop sharing a chat at any time.
WhatsApp in ConnectChats
ConnectChats links to your WhatsApp account as a linked device, the same way WhatsApp Web and the desktop app do. Your phone stays the main device, and you can unlink ConnectChats from it at any time. Direct chats and group chats both come through, and you choose which ones your AI app can see.
- Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent.
- Direct chats, groups and replies are supported. Photos, videos and voice notes show up as short text descriptions, with their captions.
- Your phone does not need to stay on, but WhatsApp unlinks companion devices when the phone has been offline for about 14 days. Open WhatsApp on your phone now and then to keep the link.
- ConnectChats uses one of the four linked device slots WhatsApp gives each account.
- The free plan links 2 chat apps and keeps messages for 30 days.
Questions
Can I use AI with WhatsApp?
Yes. Link WhatsApp in ConnectChats, add ConnectChats to your AI app and ask about your chats. It works in ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Manus, and Muse.
Does my AI read all my WhatsApp chats?
No. It sees only the chats you share in your ConnectChats dashboard, and it reads them only when you ask something that needs them.
Can the AI send WhatsApp messages without me?
Not by default. Your AI saves a draft and you approve it before it goes out. You can turn on auto-send for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Which AI apps work with WhatsApp?
Any AI app that can add a remote MCP server, including ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Manus, and Muse. Your ConnectChats account and your shared chats are the same in all of them.
How are my WhatsApp messages stored?
Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps and works in every supported AI app. No card needed.
Does my phone need to stay online for WhatsApp to work?
No. ConnectChats keeps receiving messages while your phone is off or out of signal. WhatsApp does sign out linked devices if the phone stays offline for about 14 days, so open WhatsApp on it from time to time. If that happens, link it again from https://connectchats.com/app.
Can it read WhatsApp group chats?
Yes. Groups come through like direct chats, with each sender's name. Every group is listed in your dashboard, and you decide which ones are shared with your AI app.
Does it work with the WhatsApp Business app?
Yes. The WhatsApp Business app supports linked devices, so it links with the same QR code or pairing code. The WhatsApp Business Platform (the Cloud API used by large companies) is a different product and is not supported.
