Meta launches WhatsApp Business MCP for AI-powered setup and testing

Meta made a new tool that lets AI helpers set up WhatsApp Business accounts.

Developers can tell an AI agent what they want instead of using many different Meta websites and documents.

The agent can create an account and connect a phone number.

It can also check whether the business has completed important steps, such as verification and payment setup.

Businesses can ask the agent to make WhatsApp message templates.

The agent can show whether those templates have been approved.

Developers can also use it to test messages and webhooks.

Meta says the tool checks permissions and records all calls made to it.
