Our goal at Chatbot Academy is to help as many people as possible to develop great conversational products and chatbots. We believe that voice and text as user interfaces are becoming more important, as we can see with emerging platforms like Facebook Messenger and Amazon Alexa. My name is Jan, and I co-founded Chatbot Academy together with my friend Alex...

Excellent course! 100% recommendable!
Cours très interessant qui va assez loin pour comprendre les bases du chatbot. Cependant le cours n'aborde pas la notion de langage courant, le robot répond bien à un ordre direct, mais il suffit qu'une majuscule ou qu'un mot ne soit pas écrit comme il l'attend et il ne répond plus. Mais les bases sont très bonne, reste plus que cela a rechercher :)
Very good comprehensive course on how to get started with Facebook Messenger. I found this much more comprehensive and understandable than other courses on the subject on Udemy.
However, it would be nice if more lectures would be added on building more complex bots that perform operations with the payload and that might even involve databases where information is stored.
