WhatsApp Automation
Automate WhatsApp. Skip the Business API.
Most WhatsApp automation guides start with API approval, templates and per-message fees. There is another lane: Spun connects to the number you already use, like WhatsApp Web, and automates from there.

API approval is a project
Business verification, a dedicated number, template reviews: weeks of setup before the first automated message.
Templates cage your messages
On the API, anything outside the 24-hour window must be a Meta-approved template. Casual, human messages do not fit that box.
Per-message fees meter everything
API automation bills you per conversation, so success literally raises your costs.
Your number and groups stay behind
The API cannot use your existing number’s history and cannot see WhatsApp groups at all.
How automation without the api teams use Spun
Auto-replies and chat flows
Answer the questions that repeat, route new enquiries and collect details automatically, even after hours.
Broadcasts with built-in caution
Send announcements to lists on a flat plan. Spun paces sending and helps you stay within safe limits rather than encouraging blasting.
Scheduled messages
Write now, send at the right moment: reminders, follow-ups and announcements on time, every time.
AI triage and auto-labeling
Incoming chats get labeled and prioritized automatically, and AI drafts the reply when a human needs to step in.
Google Sheets logging
Leads, orders and closed chats become spreadsheet rows in real time, no Zapier required.
A word on safety
No tool can promise immunity from WhatsApp enforcement. Spun’s safeguards exist to keep your sending patterns inside safe, respectful limits.
Up and running in an afternoon
Connect your number by QR
The same linked-devices mechanism as WhatsApp Web. Minutes, not weeks, and your history and groups come along.
Turn on the automations you need
Auto-replies, flows, scheduled sends and Sheets logging are built in, not an add-on marketplace.
Let AI handle the triage
Auto-labeling and AI-drafted replies keep the inbox moving while your team handles what matters.
Frequently asked questions
Can I automate WhatsApp without the Business API?
Yes. Spun connects to your existing WhatsApp number by QR code, the way WhatsApp Web does, and layers automation on top: auto-replies, chat flows, broadcasts, scheduled messages, AI triage and Google Sheets logging. No API approval, templates or per-message fees.
Is QR-based automation allowed?
QR tools use WhatsApp’s own linked-devices mechanism, the same one behind WhatsApp Web and Desktop. You should still follow WhatsApp’s terms and message people responsibly; Spun builds in pacing and sending limits to help with exactly that, and no tool on any lane can promise immunity if you spam.
What can the API do that a QR tool cannot?
Official-API strengths are green-tick verified business profiles and template notifications at massive scale. If you need those, an API platform is the right lane. If you need automation on your existing number, with groups and without metered pricing, that is the QR lane.
Does automation cost more as volume grows?
No. Spun’s plans are a flat $50 to $200 per month. There are no per-message or per-conversation fees at any volume.
