Bypassing Twilio: $0/mo Headless WhatsApp AI Architecture
Hey builders, I noticed a lot of people in the AI/no-code space are bleeding money on Twilio API fees for their WhatsApp bots.
I'm a systems architect and got tired of the monthly bills, so I built a headless Node.js + Make.com integration that connects OpenAI directly to WhatsApp for $0 in monthly API fees. I packaged the codebase and the Make blueprints into a clean boilerplate today.
If anyone wants the architecture to drop Twilio and save on API costs, shoot me a DM!
