How to Create a WhatsApp AI Agent · The Full Guide in Hebrew [2026]

7 min readAmichai Shekel

How to create a WhatsApp agent · A complete guide. An AI agent that responds to customers 24/7, schedules meetings in the calendar, and sends a Zoom link. The stack (Kapso, Maton, Gemini, Claude Code, Vercel) and the steps. No code.

Imagine your business a week from now. A lead sends a message on WhatsApp at 2 AM, gets a response within seconds, and books a Zoom meeting in your calendar, without you even being awake. This is not a dream, and it does not require a programmer. It is a WhatsApp agent · an AI assistant sitting on a business number, understanding what the customer wants, and answering and acting for you 24/7. The difference between an agent and an old menu bot is fundamental. A menu bot reads out '1 for scheduling a meeting, 2 for details'. An agent understands free language, conducts a real conversation in Hebrew, and knows how to perform real world actions · open a calendar event, generate a Zoom link, save a lead. This is the difference between an annoying automated response and a smart representative working nonstop. This guide explains exactly how to create a WhatsApp agent · what it can do, what tools are needed, and what the steps are from registration until the agent responds. In plain language, without writing a single line of code.

What the agent will know how to do

  • Answer customers in Hebrew, in your business voice, 24/7
  • An official Meta approved business WhatsApp number · without buying a SIM and without connecting your personal number
  • Schedule meetings · every meeting the agent closes goes automatically into Google Calendar
  • Generate a Zoom link and send it to the customer automatically
  • Save leads and answer frequently asked questions without your involvement
  • Work in the cloud · the agent is active even when your computer is turned off

What a WhatsApp agent actually is

The Stack · The 5 tools that make up a WhatsApp agent

Kapso

The Pipe · Meta approved business WhatsApp number

A WhatsApp Business API provider that works well with Israel and issues a free US number approved by Meta. This is how the agent sits on a real business number · without buying a separate SIM and without connecting your personal number.

Agent tip: During the registration process Kapso connects you to Meta Business. If you do not have a Facebook business account, Kapso will create one for you.

Google AI Studio (Gemini)

The Brain · Understands the customer and decides what to do

Here you generate a Gemini API key that powers the agent's brain. Gemini understands the customer message in Hebrew, decides what to answer, and when to activate a tool (like opening a calendar event). The basic version is free and enough to start.

Agent tip: The API key is created with one click. Save it aside · we will use it when connecting everything in Claude Code.

This guide gave you the basics. In the full Claude Code workshop we build together step by step: installation, CLAUDE.md, skills, agents, and a live website in the air. 4 recorded sessions, lifetime access.

Maton

The Hands · Connection to calendar, Zoom, and tools

An MCP mediator that connects the agent to Google Calendar, Zoom, Drive, and more tools. Without Maton the agent only knows how to talk · with Maton it also knows how to perform real actions, like scheduling a meeting and sending a Zoom link.

Agent tip: Grant Maton access to the calendar and Zoom, and get an API key. This is what gives the agent 'hands'.

Claude Code

The Programmer · Assembles all the connections

The AI agent that writes the code and connects all the parts together · Kapso, Gemini, and Maton. You describe what you want the agent to do, and Claude Code builds the logic, connects the keys, and prepares everything for deployment. Without you writing a line of code.

Agent tip: If you do not have Claude Code installed yet · there is a full installation guide on the workshop website, including permissions and a personal CLAUDE.md.

Vercel

The Home · The agent lives in the cloud 24/7

Free hosting where the agent lives. Without Vercel, the agent will only work when your computer is turned on. With deployment to Vercel, the agent is active around the clock · answering customers even when you are sleeping or on vacation.

Agent tip: Claude Code deploys to Vercel for you · you say 'deploy to Vercel' and the agent goes live.

💡 All five tools are free to start. Only when the agent reaches high message volumes (thousands of conversations per month) or heavy Gemini usage, there are paid plans. For most small businesses and freelancers · the free tier is enough to start and see value.

The Steps · From registration until the agent responds

The full Claude Code workshop brings everything together in one place: installation, skills, agents, and website building. 4 recorded sessions for life.
