9 Facebook Brand Bots You Need to Start Chatting With Today

More than 11,000 chatbots are now conversing with real people on Facebook’s Messenger platform. 

What is a chatbot? As we’ve previously explained, a chatbot is a computer program that uses artificial intelligence to simulate conversation and perform tasks. Chatbots are increasingly being used by brands for a number of reasons.

First, they’re useful to automate processes—from simple tasks like taking pizza orders to more complex assignments like handling a parking ticket dispute

Second, chatbots bring the customer service experience to life. Once you type a simple “Hi” in the chat window, most bots will respond immediately, answering questions conversationally and in real-time. It feels more like talking to a friend than a customer service agent.

Finally, now that Messenger has over 1 billion active monthly users, it makes sense for brands to enhance their customer’s user experience with a platform that everyone is already using.  
  
Wondering where a chatbot might fit in your business’ marketing or customer service strategy? Here’s a roundup of brands who are using chatbots effectively.
