About this template

Customers in the Gulf write to you in Arabic, English, or a mix of both, and a single-language bot answers half of them badly. This template detects the language of every WhatsApp message first (Arabic in any dialect, Arabic typed in Latin letters, or English) and routes it to a specialist agent with its own style guide.

The Arabic agent replies in Arabic script only, in clear Modern Standard Arabic, with neutral phrasing, Western digits and right-to-left safe formatting. The English agent writes simple, short English for readers who use English as a second language. Both answer strictly from your knowledge base, which may hold Arabic and English documents side by side, and both translate facts faithfully without changing prices, dates or conditions. Other languages get a polite bilingual message instead of an unreliable answer.

When a customer is angry, asks for a person, or raises a refund, payment, medical or legal topic, the agent hands over: the customer is told a teammate will follow up, and your team receives a WhatsApp alert written in English with the language, mood, topic and reason.

Plan about 50 minutes if your WhatsApp Business Cloud API access is ready. Have a native Arabic speaker read the first 20 or 30 replies in Executions before you promote the number; the style guide is a strong starting point, not a substitute for your own tone of voice.

How it works

  1. A message arrives on WhatsApp

    Text messages start a run. Other message types receive a short bilingual request to type the question.

  2. The knowledge base is searched

    Your Document Store is searched with the customer's own words. Arabic and English documents can live in the same store.

  3. The language and mood are detected

    A fast model labels the message Arabic, English or other, notes the dialect or Arabizi, and flags frustration or an explicit request for a person. It also reads earlier messages, so "ok" or "thanks" keep the conversation's language.

  4. A language specialist writes the reply

    The Arabic agent and the English agent have separate style guides and answer only from the knowledge base. Unsupported languages receive a polite bilingual reply and no AI answer.

  5. The reply is sent, then a person is alerted if needed

    The customer always gets a reply first. For complaints, requests for a person and sensitive topics, your team receives an English WhatsApp alert with the language, mood, topic and reason.
