Autocloz + Vonage WhatsApp
Vonage WhatsApp connects the WhatsApp channel to your own WhatsApp Business account. Autocloz sends template-gated, opt-in messages through Vonage WhatsApp and threads replies in the unified inbox. Because WhatsApp Business rules apply, messaging is template-driven and requires recipient opt-in — Autocloz enforces that rather than working around it.
