How to create a chatbot that answers your customers.

A good chatbot starts from your customers’ questions. Choose a precise task, prepare the right content and test the answers: here is the path, step by step, and how to do it with Vucìa without coding.

Step by step

Six steps to a useful chatbot.

They work with any tool. Further down you will see how they apply with Vucìa.

01

Choose a precise task

Start from the questions that keep your team busy every week: sales terms, how to use a product, opening hours and services.

02

Know your audience

A customer discovering a service and a technician looking for a procedure need different words.

03

Prepare the content

Gather website pages, manuals and up-to-date documents, with a single valid version of each piece of information.

04

Set tone and mode

Choose how it presents itself: chat, voice or 3D character, with a welcome message that introduces it as an AI assistant.

05

Test with real questions

Use your customers’ real questions, including hastily written ones, and compare each answer with its source.

06

Publish and update

Add the code to your website and update the content when a service, a price or a procedure changes.

Content

Content makes the difference.

An AI chatbot answers well when the information is clear. Before uploading it, check that it is up to date and consistent.

If you find two versions of the same rule, keep the valid one. Separate content for customers from internal notes: the assistant needs the former.

In technical answers the assistant can show the source, so customers see which document the information comes from. One example is the technical support assistant.

Useful content
  • Website pages, up to 100 read automatically
  • Manuals and PDF documents
  • Frequently asked questions
  • Sales, delivery and return terms
  • Product sheets and public price lists

Testing

Test the answers before publishing.

Prepare a list of real questions: simple, detailed, hastily written. For each one, note the expected answer and the document it comes from.

This way you can tell a fluent answer from a correct one. When a piece of information is missing, add it to the content and test again.

Keep the list: you will need it at every important update.

What to check
  • Accuracy against the source
  • Tone consistent with your brand
  • Your customers’ languages
  • Easy reading on computer and phone
  • Position of the chat button
Publishing

Put the chatbot on your website.

After activation you find your assistant’s code in the portal. Whoever manages the website adds it once and the chat appears on the chosen pages.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about creating a chatbot.
