WhatsApp auto reply, paced
Automation with limits you can see
Responsible automation
Automation that's paced like a person, not a bot
Campaigns go through a sending-safety layer of pacing, caps and quiet hours, with conservative defaults switched on from day one that you can see and adjust. Auto-replies and chatbot flows add human-like delays.
These controls reduce risk — they can't remove it. WhatsApp's Terms restrict automated and bulk messaging, and no third-party tool can guarantee your number won't be restricted. Only message people who have agreed to hear from you.
Randomised delays
Gaps between automated sends vary, instead of firing at a fixed machine rhythm.
Batch cooldowns
Campaigns pause between batches before continuing.
Hourly & daily caps
On by default at 40 per hour and 250 per day. You can see and lower them.
Quiet hours
Campaign messages hold during the hours you choose.
Per-contact cooldown
The same person isn't messaged again and again in a short window.
Warm-up mode
Newer numbers start with lower volume and build up gradually.
Failure-streak stop
Sending stops automatically after repeated failures, so problems don't snowball.
Default caps
40 /hour · 250 /day
Conservative out of the box. Lower them any time.
01 · Where the limits apply
Auto-replies, flows, follow-ups and campaigns
The full sending-safety layer — caps, quiet hours, per-contact cooldown, batch pacing and failure-streak stop — applies to campaigns. Auto-reply rules wait a random delay and show typing before replying, and chatbot flows show typing before each message. Follow-up rules and scheduled messages send at the time you set, so keep their volume low.

FAQ
Automation questions
Limits, scheduling and account restrictions.
Still unsure? Contact support
All questionsCan I schedule WhatsApp messages?
Yes. Pick a chat, write the message and choose a date and time. InboxCRM also has an appointment centre and scheduled status posts. Keep Chrome running with WhatsApp Web open so scheduled messages can be sent on time.
Can I create follow-up reminders?
Yes. You can set timed reminders and follow-up sequences based on how long a chat has waited, and get notified about who to contact next.
Does InboxCRM guarantee my WhatsApp account won't be restricted?
No. No third-party tool can guarantee that. WhatsApp's Terms restrict automated and bulk messaging, and unsolicited or high-volume messages can lead to a number being restricted or banned. InboxCRM paces campaigns with randomised delays, hourly and daily caps, quiet hours, per-contact cooldowns, warm-up mode and an automatic stop after repeated failures, and auto-replies wait a random delay before answering. These controls are designed to reduce risk, not remove it. Only message people who have agreed to hear from you.
