General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
Evolution API began as a WhatsApp controller API based on CodeChat, which in turn implemented the Baileys library. While originally focused on WhatsApp, Evolution API has grown into a comprehensive platform supporting multiple messaging services and integrations. We continue to acknowledge CodeChat for laying the groundwork.
Today, Evolution API is not limited to WhatsApp. It integrates with various platforms such as Typebot, Chatwoot, Dify, and OpenAI, offering a broad array of functionalities beyond messaging. Evolution API supports both the Baileys-based WhatsApp API and the official WhatsApp Business API, with upcoming support for Instagram and Messenger.
For those who need a more streamlined and performance-optimized version, check out Evolution API Lite. It's designed specifically for microservices, focusing solely on connectivity without integrations or audio conversion features. Ideal for environments that prioritize simplicity and efficiency.
