Unlocking the Potential of Chatbots

Chatbots have sparked a lot of interest in last few years due to the growth in artificial intelligence and its applications. There are many types of chatbots for different purposes but those that are dedicated to customer service are most widely used. In the E-commerce industry, which is powered through an online marketplace of buyers and sellers, chatbots have shown great potential.

More and more consumers expect to be guided all the way through buying process, and due to heavy traffic on these e-commerce websites, online marketers often fail to personalise the shopping experience for consumers.

With many E-commerce websites user satisfaction is often low, and this is where chatbots have proven to be a useful tool. As chatbots have natural language processing built-in, it allows them to give structured responses to most common customer queries and guide them through a website using live chat.

This has increased overall efficiency and allowed customer service agents to focus on more complicated tasks that chatbots are not yet technologically advanced enough to perform.
