Show HN: A free web utility to send WhatsApp messages without saving numbers
directwhatsapp.com
I got frustrated having to clutter my contacts just to send a one-off message to a delivery driver or client, so I built DirectWhatsapp.
It’s a 100% client-side, free utility suite for WhatsApp. I originally just built it to send a WhatsApp message without saving the number, but I recently expanded it into a full suite of business tools.
Now, it includes a WhatsApp Business chat link generator (for creating custom wa.me links with pre-filled messages), a WhatsApp QR code generator for storefronts, and a tool to format bulk messages.
It requires zero registration, has no paywalls, and processes everything locally in the browser so no phone numbers are ever stored on a server.
I'd love any feedback on the UI or ideas for other WhatsApp utilities I could add!
