The short version

Avox is a workspace for running WhatsApp as a business channel. You connect your WhatsApp Business number, and your whole team can answer customers from one shared inbox, send approved message templates, build automations and plug in your own software through the Avox API.

Each business lives in a Switchboard: your numbers, your team, your contacts and your settings, in one place.

Your customers already message you on WhatsApp. Avox is how the whole team answers them well.
