Being a fast-paced tech company, our partner needs skilled software engineers to develop scripts for a chatbot. A chatbot is a functional service powered by artificial intelligence that interacts with millions of users and offers a more immersive environment than just web presence. So, JustAnswer aims at creating an end-to-end experience where the chatbot makes the question process more efficient, follows up on the user’s experience and promotes premium services.
Team and Technologies
At the moment JustAnswer’s dedicated team of full-stack software engineers together with automation and manual quality assurance engineers are developing scripts for a world-class chatbot. They employ Python and machine learning algorithms and technologies: ChatScript, scikit-learn, gunicorn, nginx, flask.
The crucial mission of the chatbot is customer engagement. The bot presents the user with the initial information and creates a connection by engaging in conversation. It simultaneously gathers additional data for an expert in order to efficiently facilitate the customer across multiple categories and potentially create higher conversion rates.
AI Chatbot Features
The chatbot consists of dialog management modules to control the conversion process and chatbot knowledge bases to respond to user input. Ours is a scripted chat which reacts to specific patterns and matching keywords in the customer’s messages and generates predefined responses. The main features include:
- Category recognition in order to distinguish more informative details
- Conversion prediction leading to better interpretations
- Intent classification
Challenges of Chatbot Development
