Structuring WhatsApp-based support with BPM means every conversation becomes a card with status, SLA, and history — the same structure used for any other support process — instead of chat threads with no formal tracking. In **Jestor**, this combines native **WhatsApp** integration with the standard **Service Desk** structure.

Support delivered over WhatsApp often stays informal simply because the channel feels informal — but the underlying need for status tracking, SLA, and history is exactly the same as any other support channel.

## What informal WhatsApp support lacks

- No formal status tracking — a conversation is either "seen" or it isn't
- No SLA visibility into how long customers wait for a resolution
- No shared history when a conversation moves between team members
- No connection between the conversation and the customer's broader record

## How structured WhatsApp support works

- Every new **WhatsApp** message creates a card in the linked support process
- The card carries the same stages, SLA tracking, and automations as any support ticket
- Status indicators show at a glance who replied last, and how long they've waited
- **AI agents** can respond within the same structure, with human-in-the-loop available

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- WhatsApp support inherits the full BPM structure — no separate, informal process
- SLA data brings real accountability to a channel that's usually left untracked
- Conversations stay connected to the customer's broader record
- Scales from a small support team to a full multi-agent operation

| Informal WhatsApp support | Structured BPM-based support             |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| No formal SLA tracking    | Same SLA tracking as any support process |
| No shared history         | Full history attached to the card        |
