These days most websites have a chatbot available to answer questions. As a consumer, it's a streamlined, efficient way to quickly get the answers you need and can be much more convenient than navigating a bunch of help docs.
But as a business, it's hard to scale if you manually respond to every chatbot message. Plus, for the best chatbot experience, someone has to be online 24/7. Enter ChatBot. ChatBot uses AI to instantly direct users to the right resource, allowing businesses to respond quickly without manually answering every inquiry.
