SendGrid Email Sequence + WhatsApp Amplifier Agent
The SendGrid Email Sequence + WhatsApp Amplifier Agent is a SaaS marketing template that an AI employee runs end to end, covering non-opener whatsapp trigger, click-based branch logic and reply handling. AI listens to SendGrid email events (delivered, opened, clicked, bounced). For contacts who receive an email but don't open within 24 hours, AI sends a WhatsApp with the key message. This omnichannel amplification recovers 30–40% of email-only non-responders.
