Why TypeScript for this
WhatsApp is where Indian customers already are, which is exactly why the platform rules are strict. We build inside them, proper opt-in, approved templates, correct conversation categories.
TypeScript is strongest at one language across client and server, with types catching integration errors at build time. For whatsapp bot development that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: the ML ecosystem is in Python, so heavy model work lives there. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. Integration comes before intelligence. A model that cannot reach your systems of record is a demo with good manners.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions
Do you use the official API?
Always. Unofficial WhatsApp libraries get business numbers banned permanently, and there is no appeal worth relying on. We onboard you properly through the Business API.
How long does onboarding take?
Typically one to two weeks including business verification and display-name approval, assuming your documentation is in order. We handle the submissions.
Can it take payments?
Yes, catalogue, cart and payment collection through supported Indian payment providers, inside the conversation.
