What is ChatBot?

ChatBot is an all-in-one platform to create, deploy, and track chatbots across channels.


With it the vendor states users can create chatbots in minutes with diverse templates and automate key tasks right away, or easily drag-and-drop new elements to adapt any template to your needs. ChatBot is ready to work out of the box, while AI algorithms help users improve responses over time.
