AI Agent

Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT connect to your data and apps through one shared standard, instead of a custom integration for every service. Here's how MCP works, what its resources, prompts, and tools actually do, and how Wati MCP puts it to work for WhatsApp Business AI agents, with the security practices to know before you connect one.

A WhatsApp AI chatbot can handle support, lead qualification, and transactional journeys, but only if it respects template rules and the 24-hour service window. This guide covers what a customer-facing AI agent should do, how it differs from a workspace assistant like Wati MCP, and the six guardrails: templates, permissions, confirmation, logging, escalation that keep both compliant.
