Beacon
Developer API

Built for people who read the docs first

Predictable REST, a streaming WebSocket, HMAC-signed webhooks, idempotency keys, and an MCP server so your agents can drive WhatsApp directly. Read the docs, ship in an afternoon.

Capabilities

Inside developer api

REST API

Resource-oriented endpoints, cursor pagination, idempotency keys, and consistent error envelopes.

WebSocket stream

Subscribe to message, status, session, and presence events with automatic reconnect and replay from cursor.

Signed webhooks

HMAC-SHA256 signatures, timestamp tolerance, automatic retries with exponential backoff, and a delivery log.

Testing console

Fire sample payloads at your endpoint, inspect request and response, and replay any historical delivery.

MCP server

Your AI agents, such as ChatGPT, Claude, or custom bots, get full access to Beacon through MCP. They can send and receive messages, manage contacts, run campaigns, build automations, handle templates, and update settings. No custom integration needed.
