As you can see by the image in this post, I ran a Send Now campaign for my bot, Qwazou. The call to action (click) for this campaign took the user to my bot's Get Started screen vs. taking the users to the actual content I was promoting in this campaign. I cannot complain at all about the number of clicks I received for the amount I paid. The $.06 per click rocks! It's amazing, mind blowing, fantastic even. That's the good news. Now the bad news. For my $7.76 spent, not one c

Few people picked up on one of the most interesting things that David Marcus, head of Facebook Messenger, said at TechCrunch Disrupt in September. In an offhanded comment, Marcus noted that users could book airline tickets and hotels through Hipmunk’s new chatbot and that the experience was “pretty close to having a native app, and definitely better than mobile web.” Just think about that for a second.

The tech industry’s enthusiasm for the bot space is simply unprecedented. Obviously, there have been a fair number of “fart bots” goofs — after all, we’re all trying to figure ou

American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) and its Aerie lingerie brand have made bots for holiday shoppers and bra browsing. The news was announced today by Pandorabots, who created both bots. Customers may shop bra styles based on the occasion (going out for the night, something soft, get fancy, etc.) or a preferred fit or style. The Aerie bot was also made to promote Aerie company culture through photos, videos, and the #AerieReal hashtag. In 2014, Aerie started its Aerie Real campai

It is with great pleasure, after months of research and hard work, that we are able to announce the launch of Qwazou – a bot that helps people discover all the bots on Facebook Messenger. The impetus for creating Qwazou is the lack of discoverability and bot store for the 34,000 bots that have been deployed.
