Your Own WhatsApp Chatbot in Microsoft Teams

Real-time inquiries in the right channel — data in your own tenant

WebChat / Your Own AI Chatbots in Microsoft Teams—Without Vendor Lock-in / Your Own WhatsApp Chatbot in Microsoft Teams
WhatsApp + Microsoft Teams

Your own chatbot for WhatsApp. With WebChat, from inside your secured Microsoft environment.

Your customers message you on WhatsApp — not by email, not via contact forms. Today those messages never reach your tenant: no direct way to step in, and to answer well you would have to hand your knowledge to an outside provider. With WebChat every request lands in real time in the right Microsoft Teams channel — traceable, assignable, answerable. And your data stays inside your Microsoft world.

The starting point

A request at 6:12 a.m. — where does it land?

A customer has a question and reaches for the phone. The same channel — two completely different paths:

Today · no structure
WhatsApp
Your support online
Is the X-200 model still available — and where do I find the datasheet?

Lands on a personal phone — nobody clearly in charge.
  • Not systematically monitored
  • No routing to the right department

  3. 3
    AI answer
    Your own AI answers standard questions instantly — with live access to your approved knowledge sources.
  4. 4Hot-Lead
    Hot lead detected

  5. 5

    The right person can take over from Microsoft Teams at any time — with the full history.

A dedicated, specialised agent per topic — across departments and entirely inside your Microsoft tenant.
Why WebChat fits

From WhatsApp inbox to a structured process

Microsoft Teams
Specialised agents per topic
Specialist questions can't be answered by just anyone. WebChat routes by topic: each topic gets its own specialised agents — across departments, instead of a general support desk that forwards internally.
Microsoft Foundry
Your own AI with access to product data
Your knowledge sources — product data, documents, databases: your own AI in your own tenant accesses them live and answers standard questions automatically — around the clock.
Microsoft Power Platform
All locations, one tenant
Each location has its own inbound channels — everything runs through the same Microsoft tenant. No new vendor, no new contracts, no data outside your own infrastructure.
What to set up

Ready in four steps

No new vendor, no data transfer to the outside — everything happens inside your Microsoft tenant.

  1. 1
    Start a POC channel
    Start with a free POC channel from the Microsoft Marketplace — in your own tenant, no contract.
  2. 2
    Connect Power Automate
    Power Automate connects the agent to your processes: chatbot activation cards in Microsoft Teams, hot-lead detection and automatic escalation to the right department.
  3. 3
    Optimise the Foundry agent
    Fine-tune the AI agent in Microsoft Foundry with your knowledge sources and instructions.
  4. 4
    Connect WhatsApp
    Existing Entra chatbot
    Connect WhatsApp Business to the channel. An existing chatbot in your own Entra for WhatsApp can be plugged in directly, instead of building something new.

your chat, your team, your decision

Start with a free POC: WhatsApp structured in Microsoft Teams, in your own tenant — no new vendor, no new contract.

WebChat + AI

The AI of your choice analyzes the customer's request live and prepares tailored, fact-based answers that your team only needs to approve or take over directly. You decide whether the AI moderates or takes over the conversation completely. Your team remains in control of the conversation, is noticeably relieved and can concentrate on complex cases.
