Send and receive WhatsApp messages from your app in under 60 seconds. Pair a number with a QR scan, get a REST API + real-time webhooks. No Meta approval, no per-message fees. $5/bridge/mo unlimited, 7-day free trial, prorated refunds on cancel.
Hey hunters 👋 I built this after bouncing off Meta's Business API one too many
times: approval queues, template review, per-message pricing that's impossible
to predict. WABridges pairs like WhatsApp Web and gives you a clean REST API.
How it works: provision a "bridge" (dedicated hosted container for one
WhatsApp number), scan a QR, same as WhatsApp Web, and you get REST +
webhooks for that number. Text, media, polls, reactions, locations; everything
inbound arrives on your webhook in real time.
Honest caveat: it's the linked-device protocol, not the official API — great
for notifications, OTPs, support bots, and personal automations; wrong tool for
cold marketing blasts. If a number ever gets restricted, unused days are
refunded automatically.
$5/bridge/month flat, unlimited messages, 7-day trial without a card, and a
prorated refund the moment you cancel. Docs are plain-text and LLM-optimized,
paste /llms-full.txt into Claude or Cursor and it one-shots the integration.
Ask me anything!
The QR pairing was painless and I had a webhook firing test payloads within a couple minutes. For anyone needing quick WhatsApp integration without Meta's onboarding maze, this feels like a real shortcut.
One thing that would be super useful is a shared inbox view for teams handling customer chats, so multiple agents can see and respond from the same number without stepping on each other. Right now it feels built mainly for solo use.
