Our methodology — Bring Your Own Credentials (BYOC)

Some platforms “include” WhatsApp or AI… until you see the bill: markup per message, opaque tokens, or a black box you can’t leave.

Bring Your Own Credentials (BYOC) is how Wroups: Inbox + Engage plugs into your operation:

You own the channel and the account. We’re the operating system on top.

What you bring

Wroups encrypts and stores those credentials per organization; we don’t reuse them across customers or show them in plain text after they’re saved.

What we don’t do

• We don’t resell WhatsApp messages with a hidden margin.
• We don’t lock you into an AI “wallet” of credits you don’t control.
• We don’t trap your number in a limbo you can’t leave: the Meta / Google / OpenAI contract is yours.

Why it matters for SMBs and growing teams

1. Predictable cost — you see what you spend in Meta / OpenAI / Resend; the Wroups plan is software, not a channel toll.
2. Portability — if you change inboxes someday, your provider accounts still exist.
3. Clear ownership — “whose data and whose bill?” has a straight answer.
4. Better product — we compete on inbox, CRM, pipelines, workflows, and AI… not on hiding the markup.

What day-to-day looks like

• WhatsApp onboarding → connect your line.
• Settings → AI → paste and test your OpenAI key.
• Settings → Email → Resend or SMTP.
• Settings → Calendar → Google OAuth.

Then you operate in Inbox, Workflows, and Agents without wondering “how much did they charge me on top of Meta for this message?”
