Automation desk

Your WhatsApp queue.
Your knowledge base.
Kenya inference.

Customers already live on WhatsApp. Stop answering them with foreign chatbots, or with 40 agents copy-pasting the same FAQ.

In Kenya, WhatsApp is the front door. Banks, insurers, utilities, and SACCOS get the same three questions a thousand times a day, while sensitive account details sit one screenshot away from a public chatbot.

Corvux builds a private WhatsApp desk: the customer still messages your business number, but answers are generated from your approved knowledge base on models running in Kenya. When confidence drops, a human agent takes over with context intact.

Bot where it’s safe. Human on the hard ones.

Channel wiring

WhatsApp Business / Cloud API integration into your desk tooling, with clear ownership of numbers and templates.

Grounded brain

RAG over FAQs, product sheets, branch lists, fee schedules, re-indexed when you publish updates.

Handoff rules

Fraud hints, threats, VIP tags, low confidence → human. Configurable per brand.

Ops console

See containment, top intents, failed retrievals. Fix the KB, the knowledge base, off the vibes.

USSD still counts for feature phones. We can mirror high-frequency intents on USSD menus that call the same private backend, one brain, two channels.

Contact centers drowning in repeat WhatsApps.

If your agents spend half their shift answering “What are your working hours?” and “How do I reset my PIN?”, this desk pays for itself. If every chat is a unique fraud investigation, start elsewhere, or use the bot only for triage.

Pair with Swahili + Sheng for local language, and eval & red team before you open the floodgates.

Questions from CX and risk.

Does Meta see our knowledge base?

Message delivery uses WhatsApp’s channel. Your documents, embeddings, and model answers are designed to stay on Corvux Kenya-hosted infrastructure, and kept off any public LLM.

Can it speak Sheng or Swahili?

Yes when paired with our language pack. Start English-only if you want a faster pilot.

What about angry customers?

Intent + sentiment rules escalate to humans with the full thread. The bot leaves arguments to a person.

How do we measure success?

Containment rate, average handle time, CSAT, and escalation accuracy, agreed before go-live.
