360dialog is a well-established Meta Business Solution Provider known for no-markup, flat-fee API access. It's popular with developers and platforms that build their own WhatsApp software. SendFromChat is closer to a finished product: the software around the API, operable from an AI assistant.

Choose 360dialog if…

  • You're building your own WhatsApp product or platform and only need reliable API access.
  • You need partner features such as onboarding your own clients' numbers at scale today.
  • You have engineers to build and maintain the inbox, queues and automations.

Choose SendFromChat if…

  • You want to send and manage WhatsApp now, without building the tooling.
  • You want AI assistants to operate it — templates, broadcasts and replies by chat.
  • You want per-number costs to stay low: our Pro plan covers 3 numbers for $49/month.

Both use Meta's official Cloud API

Either way your messages go through Meta's WhatsApp Business Platform, templates are approved by Meta, and Meta's per-message charges are the same. The difference is how much you build yourself.
