So I just analyzed how many times people search on Google for 178 chatbots builders across 189 countries.

My goal?

To determine the most popular chatbot builders in 2020.

Here’s what I found:

1. ManyChat is the winner with 318,930 monthly Google searches and being the winner in 72 countries.
2. The 5 most popular chatbot builders are ManyChat, DialogFlow, Chatfuel, MobileMonkey and Haptik (by monthly Google searches)
3. The 5 most popular chatbots by the winner in number of countries are ManyChat, Chatfuel, Dialogflow, Infobip and MobileMonkey

The ways brands engage with their customers and the means they offer for customers to connect with them have changed radically in recent decades. What might once have been a simple support phone line or postal address has become an omnichannel customer experience. Customers seeking support can now be pushed towards live chat, online support forums and, increasingly, automated solutions such as chatbots.

We are surrounded by full-fledged and high-end tools, from traditional communication methods to brilliant visual assistants. No day goes without interacting with a chatbot. Here is a complete detailed blog for which one is the best among Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri.

I have been a software engineer for 16 years and was tired of recommending books and long videos to learn to program (I don’t finish either myself). A couple of years back I figured a chatbot might be a better way to teach programming, so I built one. It uses conversations, flashcards and quizzes to reinforce the concepts. Let me know if you have any feedback 🙂

I have been studying and practicing some swift, python and C programming and I am trying to venture into creating a FB messenger bot. I want to create something like a scavenger hunt through fb msg ( similar to urbanhunt.co ). So far I’ve started using the instructions laid out here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/getting-started/sample-apps/original-coast-clothing but I am having a hard time figuring some of it out like how atom, node.js and heroku all communicate with fb and webhooks etc. etc. Is there anything (e.g. YouTube video(s), write-ups, books etc.) that you would recommend to point me in the right direction? or maybe even something step-by-step? or would anyone be willing to be a mentor to me in this venture?

TIA!
