What is an AI chatbot?
AI chatbot is a software application that uses artificial intelligence to imitate human conversation. Unlike the rule-based bots that only work inside rigid scripts, an advanced AI assistant like MyChat can handle natural language, interpret the question, and then come back with an appropriate response.
How does an AI chatbot work?
MyChat uses Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) technology to give customers accurate answers. When someone types a message, the AI agent goes looking through your knowledge base for the most relevant bits, and then it crafts a clear response in your brand’s tone.
Can I train the chatbot with my website?
Definitely. Simply add your website URL and MyChat will scrape and index your pages into the AI knowledge base. You can also add PDFs and type text in directly. The more you feed it the smarter and more precise your AI chatbot gets.
Do I need technical skills to build an AI chatbot?
No, you don’t need to have any technical knowledge to set up the chatbot; we have designed our AI agent for non-tech people. MyChat AI chatbot app gives you a simple dashboard to input and configure your data.
Can I customize my AI chatbot?
Yes. You can control the visual appearance (colors, logo, avatar), the chatbot’s name and greeting, response tone (professional, friendly, concise), the topics it covers, and the conditions under which it escalates to a live agent without any coding.
How does an AI chatbot improve customer support?
A customer service chatbot can handle large volumes of repetitive queries by retrieving information from the knowledge base without any human intervention . This means your customers get answers instantly, and your team can focus on more complex tasks related to customer support.
Can I try the AI chatbot before purchasing?
Yes. MyChat is an open source project, you can clone it from GitHub, check out the whole codebase and run your own version for free. If you need any help, please get in touch with us.
