Wow the barrier to entry for launching a bot app is so low compared to what we saw when the App Store launched. No doubt we'll see the number of bot apps deployed eclipse mobile download apps in a fraction of the time.

Products like these only help enhance the experience in slack, and through a increasingly useful and popular medium - the conversation.
Excited to announce Api.ai for Slack that makes it easy to build a bot that can carry on conversation and understand users speaking naturally (no memorizing commands).
@swaggaguru we do have export to Alexa (although it is limited, as Alexa doesn't support all our features). FB will be supported as soon it is announced.
@workstationw me too. Would love to see some screenshots on the product in actual use. Based on what i saw in the back office, it works just like wit.ai.
@workstationw Bots are coming, we have just launched the integration. I've seen several flight/hotel reservation solutions, bug reporting tool, hr agent, several crm implementations.
Been looking forward to integrating with API.ai for some time. Have heard great things from others in the Bot Community! Great to see so many Bot Middleware services on PH! Nice work and presentation @gelfenbeyn!
