Abstract
The use of VPS (Virtual Private Server) in Indonesia is still very expensive. The Chatbot application system is very important in the marketing field, especially for disseminating information directly and acceptable to many users at a time. This paper focused on using the WhatsApp application for the Chatbot system. This Chatbot system uses the Python programming language. The message Chatbot flow system will be sent first to the user. Then the Python program will read the incoming message to enter Chatbot. If the incoming message matches the existing conditions, the chatbot will send the information according to the condition. But if it doesn't match, Chatbot will continue to repeat the process of reading incoming messages. The Chatbot system is designed to run successfully on 15 contacts at a time. Chatbot server connection speed affects the speed of sending messages and checking every incoming message. Chatbot simulation program cannot read messages that enter the server if the message contains stickers, emojis and gifs. This is because Python program cannot read the message. This research can still be developed by adding a random message feature.
