Automated document collection for onboarding

Automate document collection in onboarding with WhatsApp and reduce operational costs, delays and manual follow-ups.

Companies that rely on document collection during onboarding often face delays, manual follow-ups and lack of visibility. Automating this process helps organize the entire flow — from request to validation — making onboarding faster, more predictable and less dependent on manual effort.

Benefits for your business

  • Reduced manual follow-ups: eliminate repetitive messages and tracking tasks
  • Faster onboarding cycles: automated requests and reminders keep clients moving forward
  • Better control of pending documents: centralized tracking of submissions and status
  • Improved customer experience: clear and consistent communication via WhatsApp or other channels
  • Standardized workflows: consistent processes for different client types
  • Operational visibility: teams monitor progress without relying on spreadsheets

How WAAC delivers

WAAC starts by mapping your current onboarding process to identify delays, bottlenecks and repetitive tasks. Based on that, we design an automated workflow that manages document requests, reminders, tracking and validation.

The solution can integrate with WhatsApp, email, forms, CRM systems and internal tools. The goal is to centralize data, reduce manual work and ensure each step happens at the right time.

Workflows are tailored based on document types, client profiles and approval stages. The system can also trigger internal notifications and update pipeline stages automatically.

The result is a more efficient onboarding process with reduced operational cost and improved consistency.

Use cases

New client onboarding: automate document collection for account activation, contracts or service initiation.

Financial and compliance processes: ensure required documents are submitted and tracked without delays.

Sales integration: sales teams track document status directly in CRM without manual follow-ups.
