Is this a chatbot that replies to customers automatically?

No. This is not a chatbot. It's a way of routing genuine WhatsApp conversations into your CRM so they're structured, owned and recorded, not replaced by automated replies.

Do customers need to do anything differently?

No. Customers keep messaging the same number the same way. The change happens on your side, in how the conversation is captured and handled.

Can we send invoices and quotations through WhatsApp?

Yes, using the WhatsApp Business API, documents generated elsewhere in your systems can be delivered directly in the conversation.

What happens to conversation history from before we start?

We can import available chat exports where possible, though the clearest history begins from when the connected number goes live.

Does this work with personal WhatsApp numbers already in use?

We generally recommend moving business conversations to a dedicated WhatsApp Business number, which is what makes the routing and record-keeping possible.

WhatsApp Business Automation

Your business shouldn't be run from a WhatsApp inbox.

Across the Middle East, WhatsApp is where enquiries, orders and approvals actually happen — but that doesn't mean it should be the system of record. This is not a chatbot. It's a way of routing WhatsApp conversations into your CRM, structuring what's being asked, and keeping the history with the customer instead of on someone's personal phone.

The problem

WhatsApp is the front door, but it's not a filing system

Customers message on WhatsApp because it's fast and familiar. But once the conversation lives only on a phone, it belongs to whoever is holding that phone. When they're on leave, sick, or leave the company, the order history, pricing agreed and outstanding requests go with them.

There's no search across conversations, no record tied to the customer account, and no way for a manager to see what's been promised without scrolling through chats.

The fix isn't to stop using WhatsApp — customers won't switch. The fix is to connect WhatsApp into the systems that already run the rest of the business.

The old way — handled manually

Conversations trapped on personal phones
No record tied to the customer
Requests mixed together in one thread
Nobody covers for staff on leave

Every step depends on someone remembering. Nothing connects to the next step on its own.

Why it happens

WhatsApp is personal by default

Business conversations happen on individual numbers with no shared record.

No structure to the requests

An order, a complaint and a question all arrive as plain text with nothing to sort them.

History isn't linked to the customer

Nobody else can see what was agreed unless they scroll the same phone.

What we automate

The work this system takes off your team

Routing WhatsApp Business messages into the CRM against the right customer record
Structuring incoming requests — enquiry, order, complaint, payment query — for the right team
Sending quotations, invoices and order confirmations directly through WhatsApp
Keeping a searchable history tied to the account, not the phone
Alerting the right person when a message needs a reply
Logging outbound updates so customers get consistent information

Before and after

What changes on the ground

Same people, same customers, same tools where they already work — a different flow between them.

Before: scattered work

Conversations trapped on personal phones
No record tied to the customer
Requests mixed together in one thread
Nobody covers for staff on leave

Information is copied between tools by hand. Nothing is connected, so nobody can see the full picture without asking someone.

ScatteredConnected

With ReLeaf: one connected system

01Shared, searchable historyTied to the customer account
02Structured requestsRouted to the right team
03Documents sent in-threadQuotes and invoices via WhatsApp
04Coverage when staff are awayNothing sits on one phone

Each step hands the next one the information it needs. Work moves forward on its own and management can see where every job stands.

Use cases

Where businesses apply it

Distributor taking orders on WhatsApp

Orders sent by regular customers are captured and logged against their account instead of living in a chat thread.

Business sending quotations by WhatsApp

Quotations and invoices are delivered through the same channel customers already use, but recorded centrally.

Team covering for staff on leave

A colleague can see the full conversation history and pick up where it left off.

Who benefits

Customer-facing staff: One place to see everything a customer has asked, ordered or been sent.
Management: Visibility into WhatsApp conversations without needing someone's phone.
Customers: Faster, more consistent responses through the channel they already use.
