Latin America customer service: a 12-hour time difference without making customers wait

When it's daytime in Latin America, it's the middle of the night in China. B2B Chat helps teams selling into Latin America manage multiple WhatsApp numbers, translate Spanish and Portuguese automatically, and keep replying with an AI agent after the team has gone home.

Latin American customers reach businesses on WhatsApp

In Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brazil, WhatsApp is the main way customers contact businesses. B2B Chat brings your team's WhatsApp numbers into one desktop app, one port per number, with every conversation in one window.

Time zones are the biggest challenge

Mexico City is 14 hours behind Beijing and São Paulo 11 hours, so customers are most active after your team has left. In auto mode the AI agent replies from your knowledge base while you're away; you can also set active hours, or let it take over when a customer has waited longer than a set time without a human reply.

Spanish and Portuguese, translated automatically

Most of Latin America speaks Spanish and Brazil speaks Portuguese. Set the target language per conversation so one agent can serve both: incoming messages are translated into your language and replies into the customer's.

Faster by day, covered by night

While agents are online, assist mode suggests answers from the knowledge base for one-click replies; after hours, auto mode handles chats and agents follow up the next day.

Ports are free and unlimited; AI translation and AI replies are billed per request. See the Pricing page for rates.
