Qualify Insurance Leads via WhatsApp
Inbound WhatsApp insurance inquiries are qualified via conversational AI.
What it does
Capture and qualify inbound insurance leads directly on WhatsApp while they speak their native language. You get structured lead scores and intent data automatically synced to HubSpot without manual entry. The system instantly alerts your team via Slack whenever a lead requests human assistance.
Step by step
- Configure the WhatsApp Business Cloud webhook to receive inbound messages and forward them to your backend service.
- Set up API credentials for OpenAI, HubSpot, and Slack in your environment variables or secret manager.
- Define the JSON schema for the extracted lead data including fields like intent, score, and contact details.
Where the LLM does the work
- Prompt the LLM to analyze the conversation history and extract structured qualification data from unstructured text.
- Instruct the model to detect subtle cues indicating a request for human assistance or escalation needs.
- Generate natural language responses in the user's native language while maintaining context per phone number.
Watch out for
WhatsApp message history can grow large quickly so implement a sliding window strategy to manage token costs and context limits.
Slack alerts can become noisy during peak times so batch multiple escalation requests into a single summary message.

If it matches my stack, adapt it; if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools. ## Process requirements 1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume. 2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack. 3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each. 4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data. 5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different Messaging than WhatsApp?
Yes. WhatsApp is only the example messaging in this recipe. The same flow works with ClickSend API, Discord, Google Chat and LINE Messaging API. Swap the messaging connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
