This chat bot is very simple to use but provides some useful features suitable for small to large scale websites. When you integrate this ChatBot with DialogFlow it gets the benefits of complex AI, NLP, Entity, intent creation etc. from Google's Machine Learning system.
The ChatBot will initiate the conversation with a greeting and then try to match the user inputs with any intent you created in Dialogflow and If no result is found it will show FAQ option or allow users to send a email or leave their phone number. You can modify the in-built bot responses from the backend and set up a few Frequently Asked Questions or FAQ. You can also use this ChatBot as a contact bot, FAQ bot or HelpDesk Support bot.
We are working on a professional version of the PlugIn that will support tighter integration with Google's DialogFlow and make the ChatBot capture and email any Intent Response variables.
