Send this to your assistant

Create a ClickRuntime automation: every day at 8am, send my number our approved 'daily_rates' WhatsApp template with BTC, ETH and EUR/USD prices and their 24-hour change.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Why use it

Why teams use this automation

Traders, small importers and freelancers paid in foreign currency keep checking the same few numbers: the Bitcoin price, a stock index, the dollar to euro rate. Each check means opening an app or a website and often hitting a page with ads or a login. The habit costs minutes a day and still misses the moment the number actually matters, such as the morning a payment is converted.

Each morning the automation fetches the figures you care about from free public data sources that need no key, fills them into a WhatsApp message template you have had approved, and sends it to your own number. It also emails the same summary, so the numbers exist in two places if one channel is down.

It suits people who live in WhatsApp and want a quick read on rates before the day starts.

What you get out of it

Know the rate before you convert
Seeing the euro rate at 7 a.m. means you can decide to send an invoice in another currency, or hold off a transfer, before the day's movement. A small difference on a large payment is real money.
No ads, no logging in
The message arrives on your phone with the numbers and nothing else. You skip the chart pages and news headlines that turn a ten-second check into a ten-minute detour. You glance at your phone once and carry on, rather than losing the start of the morning to scrolling.
Same format every day
Because the template stays fixed, you learn to read it at a glance. Changes in the price jump out when the layout never moves from morning to morning. A stable layout also makes it obvious at a glance whether the number moved a little or a lot overnight.
A backup copy by email
If WhatsApp is slow or the template is paused, the email still carries the figures. You keep a searchable history of rates by date in your inbox. Rates by date are easy to look up later when you need to know what a payment was worth that day.
Works with a few keyless sources
Using public endpoints that need no sign-up keeps the setup simple and avoids another paid subscription just to see daily rates. Free public sources are fine for a daily glance, and there is no data subscription to pay for or renew.

How it works

What happens, step by step

Every day, ClickRuntime fetches the latest prices you follow, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, with their change over the last 24 hours.
It fills them into your approved WhatsApp message template.
The message is sent to your phone on WhatsApp, such as "BTC $68,412 (+1.8%) · ETH $2,481 (-0.6%)", and a copy goes to your email.

Build your own

Need it to work differently?

This template is a starting point. Copy the prompt and change it, or describe a different automation from scratch, with your own conditions, more apps or an AI step. Your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.

Your own rules
Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.
Any number of apps
One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.
AI where it helps
Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.
On a schedule or on each event
Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

Changes you can ask for

Run it at a different time, more or less often, or only on weekdays
Add an AI step, for example to summarize, sort or draft a reply
Add another app, for example also send it to Slack
Combine it with other WhatsApp Business steps into one automation

Under the hood

The code that runs this automation

This is the Python script that runs each time the automation starts. Your AI assistant writes it for you when you send the prompt, and you allow each step in your assistant. To change how the automation works, describe the change to your assistant and it updates the script for you. For every function it can use, see the script reference.

FAQ

Common questions

Why does the message need an approved template?

WhatsApp only lets a business start a conversation with a pre-approved template when the customer has not written in the last 24 hours. A daily report to yourself therefore uses a template with placeholders for the numbers.

Which assets and currencies can it report?

Anything available from a free public data source, for example major cryptocurrencies, a few stock indexes and common currency pairs. Tell your AI assistant exactly which ones you want, and it will confirm what sources can supply them.

Is this financial advice?

No. It only reports published numbers at a set time. It makes no recommendation and does not trade. Free sources can also lag or round figures, so check an official quote before making any decision involving significant money.

What permissions does it need?

whatsapp_business_messaging. Nothing else in your accounts is used.

Does it need AI?

No. It runs without AI, so it doesn't use your plan's AI allowance.

How many runs does it use?

One run each time it runs (daily). Checks that find nothing to do and stop right away aren't counted.

Can I change how it works?

Yes. Describe the change to your AI assistant, for example a different schedule, channel or filter. It updates the automation, tests it and tells you what changed.
