The Problem
An r/n8n WhatsApp automation thread surfaced the production gap: most bots are template-only and break on out-of-script questions, frustrating users. Adding live web context fixes the breakage.

- ~95% question coverage with sourced answers
- Live web context via Scavio HTTP node
- Scripted + grounded hybrid
- Per-conversation cost $0.03-0.15

Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching Google for "user asks pricing-related question; bot searches site:yourcompany.com via Scavio, returns grounded answer with source link":
import requests
API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={
"x-api-key": API_KEY,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
)
data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
print(f" {result['link']}\n")Built for SaaS support teams running WhatsApp channels, e-commerce stores deflecting pre-sales questions, agencies productizing WA bots
