What is the difference between an AI Employee and a chatbot?
A traditional chatbot follows the buttons and fixed paths you built. An AI Employee understands free-form questions, answers from your own business knowledge, moves the conversation forward and hands over to your team when needed.
How do they compare?
- Questions: a chatbot needs a matching button or phrase. An AI Employee understands the question as the customer wrote it.
- Knowledge: a chatbot says what was scripted. An AI Employee uses your Catalog, documents and instructions.
- Next steps: a chatbot ends at the end of its path. An AI Employee can guide the conversation through your stages and record a request.
- Your team: an AI Employee hands over with the conversation history, so the customer does not have to repeat themselves.
When is a simple chatbot enough?
If customers only need a menu, such as opening hours or one fixed link, a simple flow can be enough. An AI Employee is more useful when customers ask in their own words, compare options or need different answers depending on the details.
What does an AI Employee need to work well?
Quality comes from what you teach it: real prices, clear policies and instructions for when to involve your team. It should also be tested with real customer questions before it replies to customers.
