Chat bots

Chat bots that do real work, built without code.

Design a conversation on a flow map, try it in a live preview, and publish. Your bot can take loan requests, look up customers and create records in MapleCore, then hand over to a person when it should.

  • Real actions in MapleCore
  • Human handover

What changes

Answers at midnight, records by morning

Your bot handles routine requests around the clock and creates proper records, so your team starts the day with work ready to act on.

  • Requests taken in chat, then typed into the system

    The bot creates loan requests, leads and cases itself

  • Customers stuck with a bot that can't help

    A smooth handover to a person when needed

How it works

From idea to live bot

  1. 1

    Connect your bot

    Create a bot on your messaging app, paste its token into MapleCore, and the connection is set up for you.

    • Paste the token, done
    • One or several bots
    • Your bot's name and picture
  2. 2

    Design the conversation

    Lay out the conversation on a flow map, preview it on a phone as you build, and test it in the simulator before you publish. Drafts never reach customers.

    • Flow map and live phone preview
    • "Try it" simulator
    • Draft and publish versions
  3. 3

    Let it act

    Steps in the conversation can do real work in MapleCore: request a loan, link the chat to an existing customer, or create sales and CRM records.

    • Loan requests and balance checks
    • Link chats to customers
    • Create leads, orders and cases
  4. 4

    Step in when needed

    Conversations appear in a chat inbox. Your team can take over any chat, and send broadcasts to everyone who has talked to the bot.

    • Shared chat inbox
    • Hand over to a person
    • Broadcasts to bot followers

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

Which messaging app do the bots run on?

Can the bot create records in MapleCore?

Yes. It can request loans, link customers and create sales and CRM records as part of a conversation.

What if the bot can't help?

The chat can be handed over to a person on your team, who picks it up in the chat inbox.
