Hello Product Hunt-ers! 👋 Excited to launch AI Bots builder - a no-code/low-code way to build AI bots like WhatsApp chatGPT bot for any use case. You can start fast like no-code by cloning the pre-built backend template and simply adding your OpenAI and Twilio API keys. But you can also extend these any way you like with full flexibility of low code. Give it a try, by sending a WhatsApp message to any of these numbers General purpose chatGPT whatsapp bot Send any text message: +1-3155656824
Travel planner app Send a text message to plan travel for any city: +1-2314224268
Customer support bot - For a sample travel agency business in Belize Send message in text or audio message: +1-8304444793 Luis (@rodriglu24) from Rowy team built this to showcase how nocode builders can create powerful AI bots with Rowy an open-source low-code platform. We are adding more templates for Telegram, SMS, Twitter++. We would love your feedback. Join our Discord community of no-code/low-code builders and we would love to support what you are building. Cheers, Harini

@rodriglu24 @harinilabs Amazing stuff. Word of advice regarding Twilio. If you scale your bot or trying to serve a large customer base don't use Twilio. They are 10-20x more expensive than using Meta's API directly. Also, their pricing is without VAT, which is another charge that will be added at the end of the month.

@rodriglu24 @pavell2l great, looking forward :)

@rodriglu24 @mictuc interesting point, this can certainly be directly connected to Whatsapp API instead of Twilio as well.
Angella Newell
@mictuc can you elaborate on what you would suggest connecting Met's API to instead of Twilio?
Michel
@angella_newell1 Twilio is just a wrapper of Meta's WhatsApp API and I find their value add almost 0. However, their pricing is astronomically higher. I am suggesting to use their API directly (https://developers.facebook.com/...) instead of Twilio's.

Hi @harinilabs and team, congratulations on the launch and impressive product. Is the ai bot compatible with whatsapp groups?

@rupin_mathur Thanks Rupin. Yes, whatsapp business account messages and group messages are possible to do with this using Twilio's group messaging API, which is natively supported in the bot template. Give it a try and hope you enjoy it.

Love the idea behind this, I tried setting up GPT on my WhatsApp but Twilio requires a verified Meta Business account to use the WhatsApp API so that ended up being a blocker Did you guys figure out a workaround for that?

@abdlh Hey glad to hear you like this :) I believe business account verification is needed when you want to make business-initiated conversations beyond a specific limit. However, for most of these bot use cases, it is user-initiated conversation for which verification is not needed and you can use it via the Twilio WhatsApp senders list. Join our Discord in case you have further questions, happy to support what you are building: http://rowy.io/discord

Hi @harinilabs, congrats on the launch and impressive product! Is there a way to verify senders for authenticated data easily, like with a magic link or OTP?
Harini Janakiraman

@cerkiner thank you :) yes totally - this template can be tweaked to verify senders for example if they are paid user or not via a email code or other ways. We are working on adding a template for this with stripe payment integration but something that can be already achieved. Join us on discord and we can share template and code rowy.io/Discord
