Move text from images into your WhatsApp chat
Submit an image and receive its extracted text in the chat where you can use it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send message
Send a text message to a whatsapp number. note: the message will reflect on the recipient's phone number only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Re-typing text from screenshots, signs or photographed notes takes time and invites mistakes.
- Skip manual transcription of supplied images
- Keep extracted text available in chat
- Make visual notes easier to reuse
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Astica ai and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for image text extraction.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to extract the text from the submitted image with Astica and send the result to the specified WhatsApp number.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real image containing legible text and a contact who has messaged first.

Will the recipient get the message if they have never contacted my business?
