Z-API is a Brazilian gateway that exposes WhatsApp via API for developers to integrate into their systems. Zyvo is a ready-made platform that already provides AI-powered service, social networks and inbox without needing to code. See which makes sense for you.

Z-API: API for developers

Z-API provides an API layer over WhatsApp, ideal for technical teams that want to build their own solution. You gain flexibility, but you need to develop the interface, the agent and the automations yourself.

Zyvo: ready-made, no coding

Zyvo already comes with an AI agent, unified inbox, content creation and publishing on social networks. You connect WhatsApp (Web via QR or official API) and use it the same day, without writing code, with a fixed price in reais.
