AI-based bots.
Good day. This is Yevhen Kasyanenko, and today I will continue the topic of AI and its integration into business processes. Up next, we have bots and chatbots. What are they? What are they used for? How do they impact businesses? Let’s figure it out together.
AI Chatbots: What Are They?
AI-powered chatbots are standalone programs capable of communicating with users in real-time. These chatbots are based on artificial intelligence. How do they differ from classic chatbots?
Classic chatbots are built on pre-defined scripts programmed by developers. The chatbot cannot deviate from the given script. It will always act according to the algorithm.
AI chatbots surpass their simpler counterparts due to their adaptability to dialogue and situations. AI chatbots learn and adjust to the client and their needs. This has made AI chatbots highly sought after, as their efficiency exceeds that of previous generations.
AI Chatbot Capabilities:
- The bot can process natural language from users. This allows it to conduct meaningful, informative, and useful conversations.
- AI chatbots constantly improve and learn. They learn from their mistakes, enhancing the quality of their responses over time, leading to increased efficiency.
- AI chatbots easily handle the analysis of large datasets. They then use this data for self-learning.
- AI chatbots understand natural language, which allows them to grasp the context. As a result, they can offer more relevant viewpoints or facts.
- Some AI chatbot versions can recognize not only speech but also images and voice, expanding their integration capabilities.
- You can use them on both PCs and smartphones, in messengers. This provides users with a seamless interaction experience with AI.
What Does an AI Chatbot Bring to a Business?
With the theoretical part covered, let’s now explore how AI chatbots benefit businesses in practice.
AI bots automate processes related to customer support. They can easily maintain a dialogue, provide consultations, and answer questions. An AI bot can independently distribute inquiries to operators. For example, if the bot does not understand a question or lacks the authority to respond, it simply forwards the request from the client to an operator.
AI bots are often used for marketing campaigns. They can promote products and services, conduct surveys, and gather data and statistics.
With their help, you can improve personalization metrics. Thanks to their analytical tools and capabilities, bots can analyze user behavior and interactions on your website or app, and then suggest suitable products and services.
AI bots can be entrusted with automating order processing and handling payments. Some companies rely on bots for booking systems for rooms, apartments, and houses.
But the capabilities of AI bots don’t stop there. They can also be used to integrate interactive components into your business or project. A good example is the Replika bot. This is an AI-based chatbot that communicates with the user and helps them develop emotional skills.
Advantages of Using AI Chatbots
In addition to everything mentioned above, AI chatbots have a considerable list of advantages. What will you gain after integrating AI into your business?
- Significant cost reduction. You automate part of the work processes, which means the costs for staff and the need for it decrease. Instead of 10 support operators, you only need 2. But most importantly, the efficiency of your business increases.
- The bot and its functionality are available 24/7. You get round-the-clock customer service without employee intervention.
- You receive more accurate and faster analytics and research results, as you eliminate the human factor from algorithms. The bot processes information hundreds of times faster than a human.
- You provide customers with a new experience, and in return, they give you their loyalty and interest. The customer experience, of course, depends on the format of AI bot integration. However, overall, customers still receive the services they are accustomed to, but with better quality and new emotions.
- If you decide to integrate an AI bot into interactive elements of your business, it will increase customer engagement metrics. Additionally, you will be able to raise brand recognition metrics. If you have a unique feature that competitors lack, you will attract increased interest in your niche. As a result of this heightened interest in innovative solutions, you may gain some clients from your competitors.
- Your employees will have more opportunities for creativity and creative work. The bot takes over all routine automation (from communicating with clients and providing standardized responses in chat to some logistical aspects), allowing employees to express themselves differently. You can help them unlock their creative potential.
Why is it Important to Work with a Professional Team?
Comparing the creation of a modern AI bot with that of an old bot, the development of the former is significantly more complex. Creating an AI bot requires a whole team of professionals. Throughout the process, specialists conduct a comprehensive set of analytical and technical measures.
- It all begins with market analysis and client niche. Before starting development, the team conducts market analysis. This helps clearly define the tasks the AI bot will perform.
- Next comes the selection of the technological stack. Based on the market analysis and task identification, technologies for implementing the AI bot are chosen. This may include NLP, machine learning, and future integration with the client’s CRM systems.
- It’s time to develop the interface. A good interface should be functional, ergonomic, simple, and understandable. The client and their customers should find it easy to interact and communicate with the bot.
- We conduct initial testing and debugging of the AI bot. Tests are performed not only after development is completed but also during it. It is very important to conduct a series of tests to ensure the system’s functionality and correctness in different conditions.
- Training the bot and final adjustments. Remember that AI requires constant learning and algorithm tuning. Before handing over the AI bot, the team conducts final adjustments, uploading current data and algorithms.
- And then comes the final stage—integration with the business. Almost done; only the integration with CRM, ERP, and other systems is left.
