Will this get my WhatsApp banned?
ClawdBot uses similar protocols to WhatsApp Web. Using unofficial automation with WhatsApp carries some risk. For personal use with normal activity levels, risk is lower. Avoid spam-like behavior or high-volume automated messaging.
Does my phone need to stay connected?
Your phone needs internet connectivity, but doesn't need to stay open to WhatsApp. It works like WhatsApp Web.
Can I use this in group chats?
Yes! ClawdBot can participate in group chats. You can configure it to respond only when mentioned or to all messages.
Is it free?
ClawdBot itself is free and open source. You'll need an API key from an AI provider (Anthropic or OpenAI), which has usage-based costs.
