Building an AI chatbot: the steps explained

How does a smart chatbot come about? We walk through the steps, from gathering knowledge to going live.

A good chatbot is not built in an afternoon, but it does not have to be a months-long project either.

The steps

  1. Gather knowledge: which documents and questions may the bot use?
  2. Secure setup: a private GPT environment so your data stays yours.
  3. Train on your style: answers in your tone of voice.
  4. Test and go live: first internally, then on your site.

Important

Let the bot do the simple work and pass complex questions to a human. Also read what a chatbot delivers.
