Account & settings

Most of the time you will run Perisclaw straight from WhatsApp. The web app is where you work through what needs you, and handle the few things that live outside chat: your connection, notifications, billing, and account.

Signing in

Sign in at app.perisclaw.com with Continue with Google. Once your WhatsApp number is connected, you can also enter it under the Google button, choose Continue with WhatsApp, and type the 6-digit code Perisclaw Support (+91 92057 59988) sends you on WhatsApp. Copy code under that message copies it for you; Sign in opens your account straight away in the browser of the phone you tapped it on. Both routes open the same account.

The web app

The web app is the companion to your self-chat. It opens on Today. Its places, in side-bar order:

At the bottom of the side bar are Help and your account menu, with Support, Billing, Settings, Delete account, and Log out. On a phone, open the menu at the top left for the same places, Help, Billing, and Log out.

Under Settings → Personalization you set your name, timezone, and general instructions. Permissions and Skills are sections of Settings too. If the link to WhatsApp drops, the web app shows Reconnect WhatsApp with the QR or pairing code. Restart, disconnect, or delete your number under Settings → Account.

You can also talk to your assistant from any page: choose the Perisclaw mark at the top of the side bar, or press Cmd/Ctrl + K. The conversation is the same one you see in WhatsApp, and it has a live voice mode.

Billing

Your plan, card, next payment, and cancellation live under Settings → Billing. Use Manage subscription for plan changes. If a payment fails, find the invoice marked Unpaid in Billing history and use Pay now to open its payment page. See the FAQs for what Perisclaw costs and what happens when a trial ends. Free months from referrals are applied to your upcoming bills automatically, and Billing shows when your next bill is covered.

If your plan is suspended, product pages show a suspended notice with your number and a link to Billing. Account settings remain available so you can disconnect your assistant if you do not want to reactivate it.

Push notifications

Turn on push notifications to get a nudge on your phone when something needs you, even when WhatsApp is closed. Enable them during setup, or anytime with Turn on notifications at the top of the web app (shown while they are off) or Alerts in the side bar or the phone menu, which also turns them off.

Notifications also cover the one thing you would otherwise notice too late: if your assistant’s link to WhatsApp drops, you are told straight away rather than wondering why it has gone quiet.

Per-chat notes

Each chat can carry standing notes your assistant follows there, such as “never discuss budget in this group.” Just ask in your self-chat. For rules that should hold in every chat, use Hard rules.

Managing your account

You are always in full control of your data:

• Clear what it remembers: ask your assistant to forget specific things at any time.
• Disconnect your phone: use Disconnect beside your phone number to stop the assistant and release its active server. Your saved data is kept; choosing Connect phone later restores it on a new server.
• Remove a phone: your trial and its original deadline are preserved. A recurring subscription is scheduled to stop at the end of its current term; adding a phone again before then resumes it automatically.
• Delete your account: go to Settings → Account → Danger zone (or Delete account in your account menu), type DELETE, and choose Delete Account. This removes your numbers and their data, deletes your login, and signs you out. It works even if you haven't connected a number.
