Came accross an interesting product. Alabot is an extremely promising intelligent search platform on Mobile and Web.Equipped with artificial intelligence and capable of “understanding” human language, ALABOT can be embedded in any instant messenger network and can be used to fetch information and book tickets, serve information about local deals, and do a precise search without opening Web pages. Its objective is to enable people to talk to a shopping application irrespective of context, sentence form and structure.Alabot can be easily used from mobile devices and the Web,too. It tremendously benefits endusers by eliminating the language barrier. You can try it out yourself- add alabot.travel@gmail.com to your Gtalk account, and chat with it to get any travel query answered.”e bot will interpret the query and will suggest answers.
(Data is currently coming from a dummy database; for more information you may go to http://blog.alabot.com/ test-me-on-gtalk/ before testing it.) Any application, whether in the travel vertical or in the enterprise domain (CRM, banking,insurance) can be ‘talk-enabled’ by ALABOT. It eliminates long waits for users, and obviates the need for short codes and complex syntax structures. By directly embedding ALABOT in the website, online businesses can smoothly take their customers through the entire purchase cycle. Ala Isms, another product of Alabot, is a proprietary intelligent platform built for all mobile phones and is platform-agnostic. It is a server side application and does not need to be installed on the phone. It is an intelligent self-learning application, which responds to natural language. It can do location-based searches and send reminders, apart from enabling M-commerce transactions.Ala Isms can be embedded in any existing mobile solution, and brings freshness to VAS (value-added services) and the mobile 2.0 space.
The team is trying to address the bottom of the pyramid in the mobile space. Semi urban and rural audience will be able to get information about products, services (health, banking, education) through this platform. Its multilingual capability eliminated the need to train and educate this demographic.
The other major benefit is reducing the cost of service by automating the transaction process. All basic L0 and L1 queries can easily be routed through Alabot eliminating the need for a help desk , call centre.
