## Why WhatsApp? Why Now?

WhatsApp has over 2 billion active users. For hundreds of millions of consumers — especially across Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, and Turkey — it is the primary communication channel. It's not a messaging app; it's where life happens.

Businesses have been sending WhatsApp messages for years. But until now, when a customer wanted to talk , the experience broke down. They'd have to leave the app, find a different number, wait in a queue, and hope someone answers.

WhatsApp Calling closes that gap completely. Your customers stay in the app they're already using. They tap Call. Your AI picks up. The conversation happens naturally, voice-to-voice, in real time — and the AI has full context from every previous interaction.

#### World's First AI Agent on Active WhatsApp Calls

Mihu AI is the first platform in the world to offer AI-handled live voice calls directly inside WhatsApp — not a bot, not a chatbot, not a pre-recorded IVR. A real-time, conversational AI agent that listens, understands, and resolves.

## How It Works — Three Steps

1

Customer Receives Your Message

You send a proactive WhatsApp template — an order update, appointment reminder, or offer. A Call Now button is embedded directly in the message.

2

They Tap the Phone Icon

One tap in WhatsApp. No app switching. No number to dial. The call connects inside the WhatsApp interface they already have open.

3

Mihu AI Answers Instantly

Your AI agent picks up in under 3 seconds, greets the customer by name, and resolves the issue — fully automated, end-to-end.

## What Happens After the Call

WhatsApp Calling isn't just about the conversation — it's about what Mihu AI does once the call ends. Every call triggers a fully automated backend workflow:

Session report generated — full transcript, sentiment analysis, and resolution summary

CRM updated automatically — contact record, issue tags, and interaction history synced

Issues flagged and tagged — late deliveries, complaints, and escalation signals surfaced instantly

Alert email sent to your team — so humans stay informed without needing to monitor every call

Support ticket created — if escalation is needed, a ticket is opened in your CRM before the customer hangs up

Zero clicks. Zero manual entry. The entire process — from ring to report — takes under 2 minutes.

## Real Use Cases

#### E-Commerce: Order & Delivery

Send delivery delay notices via WhatsApp and let customers call immediately to get real-time updates, apply discount codes, or reschedule delivery — all handled by AI.

#### Healthcare: Appointment Management

Send appointment reminders over WhatsApp. If a patient needs to reschedule, they tap Call — the AI handles rescheduling in real time, without tying up reception staff.

#### Automotive: Service Follow-Up

After a vehicle service, send a WhatsApp update. If the customer has concerns or questions about the invoice, they call directly — the AI has all the service history and can answer fluently.

#### Customer Support: Instant Resolution

Replace or supplement your call center. Instead of waiting in a queue, customers tap Call from WhatsApp. Your AI resolves 92% of issues on the first call — no human handoff needed.

## Supervisor Training — While Calls Happen

WhatsApp Calling includes a live Supervisor Training panel. As calls happen in real time, your team can review the AI's responses, approve them, add correction notes, and queue improvements — all without interrupting the call.

Every correction feeds back into the model. The AI gets smarter with every call it handles, every note your team adds, and every resolution that closes successfully.

#### AI That Gets Better With Every Call

Mihu AI learns from every interaction. Supervisor corrections are queued, reviewed, and applied — so your AI agent improves continuously without downtime or redeployment.

## Getting Started

WhatsApp Calling is available to all Mihu AI customers on the Growth plan and above. Setup takes under 5 minutes:

Connect your WhatsApp Business API number via Settings → Channels

Toggle WhatsApp Calling on and assign your AI agent to incoming calls

Configure your call flow — greeting script, escalation rules, availability hours

Publish. Your AI starts answering calls immediately.

If you're already using Mihu AI for WhatsApp messaging, your existing agent context, customer history, and CRM integrations carry over automatically. There's nothing to rebuild.

#### Already a Mihu AI Customer?

WhatsApp Calling is live in your dashboard now. Navigate to Settings → Channels → WhatsApp to enable it. No migration. No extra setup. Just turn it on.
