Hmmm…interesting list. I however was thinking that you may want to include Engati as well. Engati is a chatbot platform that allows you to build, manage, integrate, train, analyse and publish your personalized bot in a matter of minutes. It presently supports eight major messaging platforms including messenger, kik, telegram, line, viber, skype, slack and webchat with a focus on customer engagement, conversational commerce, and customer service and fulfillments.

In reply to bexcite. Absolutely! We're now also prototyping with the conversation based project, but the open question for me is how will users perceive dialogs with custom keyboards / preset answers versus pure NLP. I hope we could provide fun and efficient experience mixing these together, because on NLP side the user experience is still ambiguous, imho, even with the large guys (Siri etc.)

In reply to Alexander Belskiy. Unfortunately we don't have any data to share but we've seen from our experience the less layers of interface we make between users and feature the more likely user will use the feature. For instance, why I need to open App Store on my iPhone and search for app, download it and run? It's much better to ask the question directly in a iPhone search field and have the answer right here in search result with details coming by click and app streaming from the cloud without any download/install flow. So the bots is mostly about eliminating the clicks between users and results without leaving the one common interface of the chat.

Great list! Pavlo, do you have any experience with building chatbots in your projects? Is there any trackable better feedback from users, then traditional interfaces?

Hi Pavlo, thank you for a nice list.

I’ve recently created a chat bot for association game based on neural embedding language model, trained on >100Mb of natural texts. The code is here: https://github.com/alexsosn/AssociationBot
Also I have some useful links to add to your list: http://alexsosn.github.io/ml/2015/11/05/iOS-ML.html

Hopefully will be useful for someone.
