ChatBot

Description

A chatbot is a software application that simulates human conversation or “chatter” through voice or text interactions allowing humans to interact with digital services as if they were communicating with a real person. Chatbots can be as simple as rudimentary programs that answer a simple query with a single-line response, or as sophisticated as digital assistants that learn and evolve to deliver increasing levels of personalization as they gather and process information. In this chatbot application users will be able to ask common questions to the bot and get responses.


Problem Statement

Satisfying shopping experiences are the key to building a loyal following of paying customers. If people don’t have immediate feedback on their most pressing questions, you could lose a sale and a potential life customer with a real value. But what happens if your customer support team is overwhelmed by the volume of incoming questions? What if you don’t have enough people power to respond to those inquiries in real-time? Many customer support teams are bogged down with repetitive tasks to answer the same version of FAQS over and over again.

Solution

In situations where your inbound traffic is higher than can be reasonably managed by human support staff, an AI chatbot is one of your best resources to handle the higher volume. Chatbots can be programmed to respond to FAQs in real-time, and thanks to their machine learning capabilities, they can identify the intent behind those questions to strike up more meaningful, informative, and satisfying conversations with shoppers.
