Hey @davidkc! looks like I should have made my website (https://moin.im) with your UI ๐Ÿ˜›
David Ciaffoni
@moinism I think your site looks great, but let me know if you end up using Illusion.ai instead.
Andrew Wooldridge
Thinking about making a conversational game with this. Is there a way to talk to the service directly with a different UI?

Awesome!

I click on Tell me more, it doesn't do anything. Iphone7
David Ciaffoni
@_pascalandy Its been fixed
Pawel Kadysz
@davidkc @_pascalandy two weeks and still not fixed, at least not on iOS?
Snehaal Dhruv
Nicely done! ๐Ÿ‘Œ
David Ciaffoni
Thanks for saying so @smdhruve!

Does it work with just an embed code? Also, do you offer any way to sell a product within the interface?
David Ciaffoni
@swetzequity It will work with just the embed code and a script. If you don't want to use our stylesheet, you can use your own styles, or copy and edit ours here: https://github.com/illusionAI/st... Right now we don't offer a way to sell a product, but we will in the next version.

Nice product but for a conversational service, it sure has a lot of spelling mistakes: "...you're are good to go!", "...conversational experiance for your..", "...vistors to your site...", "Why not make it interavtive..."

This space is going to be super-crowded. Good luck!

The email hi@illusion.ai bounces
David Ciaffoni
@paddy Thanks for catching that! Should be fixed now.

Thanks @minhlede!

Looks incredible
Julio Medina
This had become a popular format. Love the concept. I still want to find a solution that works like a web form in this same style and can sync with a backend.
David Ciaffoni
@julio_medina Just wait for our next version ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hey, Product Hunters! ๐Ÿ‘‹ We are very excited to release the alpha version of Illusion.ai on PH today! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰ With Illusion.ai Itโ€™s super easy to create a conversational UI, and embed it into your website. My co-founder Juan Pablo and I created Illusion.ai because we felt that websites need to evolve. The way we interact with them hasn't really changed much since the advent of web 2.0. Despite fresh coats of paint every few years, for the most part, we are still just reading static text on a screen. In fact, thatโ€™s what you are doing right now.๐Ÿ™€ Why not have a conversation instead? โžก๏ธ https://illusion.ai/woah We will both be checking this regularly throughout the day, eagerly awaiting your questions and feedback. -David

@davidkc congrats on the launch! How do you compare with other offerings like Octane.ai or Chatfuel?
David Ciaffoni
Thanks, @chrismessina! Great question. Octane.ai and Chatfuel are focused on bot creation for existing 3rd party services like Facebook Messenger and Telegram. While Illusion.ai is meant to be embedded into websites. We see Illusion.ai a replacement or an enhancement of text-heavy sections, like landing pages, about pages, or FAQs.

@davidkc Spent a few hours building out a product - only to find out the touch events aren't working on iPhone? Even on your demo sites? Do you have a fix, or do I have to debug this?
David Ciaffoni
@jimmyamash you might be using the wrong cdn. please check the documentation. If that doesn't work please send me an email with more details.
Jimmy Amash
@davidkc Yup - I was using my local alpha js file from 3 months ago. Seems that you made updates since then. Thanks!

First Build your website or app without running any code, then conversational form and now conversational UI great line up! love this product. #Illusion-ist ๐Ÿค˜

@_ankitsingh Wow our first evangelist! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ™Œ

@davidkc ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ This is a masterpiece, I'm trying this since last night, some spelling errors but I understand with time they all will be fixed. Hope to see some more exciting products in near future. Great work man! Keep it up.๐Ÿ‘

I don't see how it can be considered AI when it's just a series of if else statements.
David Ciaffoni
@erickbarron86 I don't believe we ever claimed it was AI? If you are referring to the .ai domain that's the country code for Anguilla ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฎ In all seriousness, the name comes from our aspirations to eventually create a conversational UI that could pass the Turing test. Theoretically to pass the test you don't need true human level AI, just the illusion of one.
Alain Lagrecque
@erickbarron86 I think that's the "illusion" part! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ No where on the website does it mention Artificial Intelligence, you're assuming that from the domain name TLD. I think it's a pretty clever play on words, the fact is you and I both clicked through the IF statements to learn about the product. We may not have done that if it wasn't for the conversational style format. So illusion or not it kind of did it's job ๐Ÿ‘ If this takes off ๐Ÿš€ then I'm sure the next step would be for smarter AI conversations. @davidkc @juanpablofernandez - nice execution guys ๐Ÿ’ฏ

@alainlagrecque @erickbarron86 I could not have said it better myself, thanks, Alan. ๐Ÿ‘Œ
