Automation💻 is no longer the future😮 — it’s here now 

Once the company team has completed the discovery process, it is ready to start designing and building the ultimate chatbot. At this point, it is important to think carefully about the problems that the chatbot will have to solve and the suite of functions that the team wants to integrate into the chatbot.

Knowing exactly what the team needs the chatbot to solve makes it easier to decide the type of chatbot to build. This decision will impact both the team’s development plans as well as the end user’s experience.

Support chatbots Personality, multi-turn capability and context awareness must be provided to them. We should be able to guide the client through any major business process and answer a wide range of FAQ-type questions.

Skills chatbots They are typically single-turn-type chatbots that do not require a lot of contextual awareness. They are given fixed commands that are designed to make life easier. For example, “turn on the lights in my living room.

Assistant chatbots They are in the middle ground between the support and skills chatbots. We need to be conversational and able to answer just about any kind of question while being entertaining at the same time. People engage with them even if they can not execute a command because the answer they offer is interesting or entertaining, or both.

What can chatbots do? When strategically deployed, customer support chatbots can automate a variety of time-consuming business operations, processes, and events.

Furthermore, it is important to pre-define the functions of the chatbot. Here are six examples of specific roles of chatbots:

Improve customer service.

Improve response rates.

Automate repetitive tasks.

Reduce employee workload.

Eliminate clutter.

Measure performance.

No matter what type of chatbot the company decides to build, it’s important to give them personality. People interact with chatbots because they want to connect in a more natural way than was possible with previous technologies.

Managing the Chatbot Human Handoff

While most of the inquiries chatbots handle are resolved without a problem, there will always be a percentage of instances in which the conversation will need to be handed off to a human customer agent.

For example, if a customer asks to speak to a human being, the customer should be handed over immediately to a living human person. Often, if the customer is unhappy with the product or service they have got, they typically want a live human agent.

Chatbots should be able to recognize the different categories of consumer sentiment and to deliver the conversation accordingly.
