What these companies do

🔍 Problem

You outgrow the free WhatsApp Business app in a season. The upgrade puts a paid reseller between you and Meta, then bills you per delivered message at rates that swing twenty times between India and Germany. Your $50 estimate arrives as a $385 invoice.

💡 Solution

Merchant software vendors sell the layer Meta leaves unbuilt: catalog sync, broadcast scheduling, cart recovery, order confirmation and shared inboxes, priced as a subscription on top of Meta's per-message fees.

💎 Why It Matters

Meta shipped a free agent on June 3, 2026 that answers questions, recommends from catalog and closes sales. The platform now sells the product its own ecosystem was built to sell.
