Connect WhatsApp to Claude with SAMWAD
With the SAMWAD connector, this WhatsApp Claude integration lets Claude work in your WhatsApp Business account. Ask it to import a contact list, write and submit a template, build a journey or send a campaign. It does the work in SAMWAD while you approve each step in the chat.
What you can ask
What Claude can do in your SAMWAD account

Setup
Set it up in three steps
- Open Connectors in Claude
Search for SAMWAD in Claude’s connectors directory.
- Connect and sign in
Sign in with your SAMWAD account. Claude can only work inside the account you sign in to.
- Ask Claude something
Mention SAMWAD. Try: “Using SAMWAD, show me my approved templates.”
You need a SAMWAD account (start a free trial) and a Claude account that can use connectors.
You stay in control
Claude asks before anything goes out
WhatsApp’s own rules still apply: campaigns go only to opted-in contacts, messages outside the 24-hour window need approved templates, and Meta reviews every template.
- Nothing goes out without you
Templates are submitted to Meta and campaigns are sent only after you confirm in the chat.
- Your account, your rules
The assistant works only inside the SAMWAD account you signed in to. WhatsApp’s opt-in and template rules still apply.
- Everything stays in SAMWAD
Templates, groups, journeys and campaigns created from a chat appear in the SAMWAD app for your team.
Use cases
Three ways teams use it
“Write a festive template for repeat buyers, check it, and schedule it for Friday 6 pm.” Claude drafts it, checks it, shows the preview and audience size, and schedules it once you confirm.
“Summarise last week’s campaigns and tell me which failed and why.” Claude pulls the analytics and failure reasons and suggests what to fix.
“Find my recent chats with Priya Shah and summarise what she asked.” Claude searches the conversations and gives you the short version.
The same connector works in ChatGPT: open Apps, search for SAMWAD and sign in. See Connect WhatsApp to ChatGPT.

Book a demoWhat is the SAMWAD connector for Claude?
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) connector that lets Claude use SAMWAD’s tools: contacts, templates, campaigns, journeys, results and conversations. You talk to Claude; Claude works in your SAMWAD account.
Can Claude send WhatsApp messages without asking me?
No. Template submissions and campaign sends need your confirmation in the chat, and journeys need your review before they’re turned on.
Does it work with my existing templates and contacts?
Yes. Claude works with everything already in your SAMWAD account, and anything it creates shows up in the app.
Which SAMWAD plan do I need?
Our team will help you pick the right plan and connect it with you. See pricing or book a demo.
Do I still pay Meta’s message charges?
Yes. Meta charges for WhatsApp messages separately, and SAMWAD passes them through at cost, with no markup.
How is an MCP connector different from an API?
An API is for developers writing code. An MCP connector lets an AI assistant use the same capabilities through conversation. Read What is a WhatsApp MCP server?
