Set up your assistant
Link KKHS Assist to your WhatsApp in about a minute, straight from your browser.
KKHS Assist connects to your WhatsApp as a linked device — the same mechanism WhatsApp uses for WhatsApp Web and the desktop app. Setup takes about a minute and happens entirely in your browser. Your assistant then lives in your WhatsApp self-chat (the chat with your own number).
You will need the phone where WhatsApp is installed nearby to approve the link.
Set up in four steps
- 1
Sign in
Open the KKHS Assist dashboard and sign in with Google. Your assistant is hosted on a secure, private server that only you can reach over WhatsApp.
- 2
Add your WhatsApp number
Enter the WhatsApp number you want your assistant to live on. KKHS Assist will live in that number's self-chat — it does not add a new contact or bot.
- 3
Link your device
Connect KKHS Assist to WhatsApp using either a QR code or a pairing code (see the two methods below). This is the same Linked Devices flow you would use for WhatsApp Web.
- 4
Meet your assistant
KKHS Assist spins up your private server (about 30 seconds) and wakes up. Open WhatsApp, go to your self-chat, and say hi — it will walk you through a quick setup (your name, timezone, what you want help with, and optionally connecting Google).
Two ways to link
Best when you have the dashboard open on a computer and your phone in hand.
- 1On your phone, open WhatsApp → Settings → Linked Devices → Link a Device.
- 2Point your phone's camera at the QR code shown in the dashboard.
- 3WhatsApp confirms the link, and your assistant connects.
After setup
The first time you message your assistant, it asks a few quick questions — one at a time, like texting a person, not filling in a form:
- Your name — what it should call you.
- Your timezone — it guesses from your number and just asks you to confirm, so reminders and digests land at the right hour.
- What deserves your attention — what it should always flag, and what it should never bother you about. This is the one worth answering properly: it is what shapes your daily digests from day one. A voice note is fine.
- Google (optional) — connect once to unlock Calendar and contacts. You can always do it later by saying "connect Google" — and the same sign-in extends to Drive & Sheets when you want them.
That is it — you are ready to start. Next: Using KKHS Assist.
None of this is locked in. Everything it learns about you stays readable and editable later — see Custom skills — and you can change how much freedom it has any time on the Permissions page.
