Meta charges per message from Oct 1 - why Dokwise is immune

Did you see Meta's new Cloud API pricing? From October 1st, WhatsApp charges per message for everything sent through the API including service messages that were free until now.

Every AI chatbot replying to customers just became a cost center. An SMB doing 5,000 conversations/month with ~10 bot replies each = ~$1,000/month in new fees. From zero.

Dokwise - Your WhatsApp chats are leaking revenue. We find it.

SMBs run their business on WhatsApp, but nobody reads 100 conversations a day. Deals die silently: unanswered inquiries, ghosted leads, forgotten follow-ups. Dokwise plugs into your existing WhatsApp, analyzes every conversation with AI, and tells you exactly who needs a follow-up today and how much revenue is at stake. No new inbox, no per-message fees, no workflow change. Your team keeps chatting. You stop losing money.

Founders, be honest: are you building an idea AI gave you?

No judgment, genuinely curious. How many of us asked ChatGPT for app ideas at some point, then ended up building one of them, or half-building it? The line between "my idea" and "the model's idea" got blurry this year. Where did your current project actually come from?
