What is Hop?
Hop is a platform for building, publishing, and running flows — the structured, interactive experiences your audience completes inside WhatsApp.
Instead of free-text back-and-forth, a flow guides someone through a clear set of screens — questions, choices, confirmations — and hands you back clean, structured data. Hop lets you author those flows, connect them to a WhatsApp number, and manage them end to end.
What you can do with Hop
- Author flows visually in the Flow Builder, or from a familiar XLSForm spreadsheet.
- Publish a flow and make it reachable through a short code.
- Collect responses as structured data you can review and export.
- Manage your organization, team, and flows from one place.
