How to Get Started with ChatBotKit
ChatBotKit is a conversational AI platform that allows you to create chatbots. In this tutorial, we will cover the key components of a bot and how to use them to create a basic chatbot.
What is ChatBotKit?
ChatBotKit is a conversational AI platform that provides the necessary tools for building chatbots. These chatbots can be used for various purposes such as customer service, lead generation, sales and entertainment. ChatBotKit is designed to make it easy for developers, small businesses and individuals to create chatbots without having to write code.
Key components of a bot
There are three key components of a bot: the bot, the dataset, and integrations.
Bot
A bot is a software that can simulate conversation with human users. ChatBotKit provides a generic chatbot instance that you can customize to your liking. You can customize the bot's name, description and backstory, and other settings.
Dataset
A dataset is a repository of information that the bot can access during conversation to provide accurate answers to questions and other information. ChatBotKit allows you to create a dataset by uploading various popular document files like PDF, DOCX and CSV containing the necessary information. You can also use the built-in dataset record editor to create and manage datasets directly within the platform.
Integrations
Integrations allow you to connect your bot to other platforms such as Slack, Discord, Notion and many others. ChatBotKit provides a simple interface to configure these integrations. You can easily connect your bot to these platforms using the integration settings within ChatBotKit.
Combining the components
You can create a chat interface from each of these components alone or combine them like a lego. For example, you can create a bot and integrate it with Slack, or you can create a dataset and use it to train your bot. You can also combine a bot, a dataset, and integrations to create a more powerful chatbot.
