Hi, Aditya Ahluwalia this side, me and Rishabh Bose created Kukie, a messenger to recommend awesome startup resources. It can suggest over 300 resources and articles to you across 40 categories, whenever you need :) Why did we build a bot for startup resources ? Well for the following 5 reasons - 1. We have been in the startup community since the past 18 months and the most frequent question I was asked is which tools to use to grow your business 2. This, interestingly has also been my most searched term on google - Free images, free social media management free HTML5 templates and so on. This lead me to discover , , , on product hunt. 3. We wanted to share all the resources I used to learn and grow, in an easy and accessible format 4. We wanted to learn how to make a messenger bot :) 5. We wanted to make something different for the PH community to experience and consume :P Thus Kukie :) Here is Kukie's perpective on the first 20 of it's life - Now coming to the question that how is it different? 1. Kukie is being created based on feedback from its users. How? I released Kukie about 20 days ago to my friends and a few Startup Facebook groups. I read all the conversations between my bot and users (No analytics on messenger bots up till now) and figured out the most intuitive way of structuring a startup stash for a user. I was also able to see what I was missing and what I had categorised wrong. 2. Kukie learns from all your interactions and iterates keeping the conversations fresh and relevant 3. It only shows you what you ask for, Not more (probably less :P) 4. It will talk to you in a way. so that you feel that a friend is actually recommending these resources to you 5. It will also try and inspire you to go and achieve more :) 6. Now actually all the best tools and all the awesome stashes are just a click away in your pocket (If you have a Facebook messenger app) Kukie is a side project, my first Facebook bot to be precise. Otherwise I am the co-founder of 2 products. Planning to release both on PH soon :) Special thanks to that chatfuel guys , and for building such an awesome platform - Kukie was built without using a single line of code. We will be hanging around here the entire day to answer your questions, you can ask us anything you like :)
Aditya, this is just awesome! Congrats, such a great idea and implementation!
thank you for the love :) couldn't have done it without your platform :)
Awesome guys, really useful for everyday business life! May I ask what technology you use for NLP?
Hi so this was made using chatfuel, both of us aren't coders. This is what excited us about bots that you can actually build a useful one without using any tech and or UI/UX. For NLP I am using my and Rishabh's brain :) basically going through all conversations and understanding on which phrases Kukie is failing. I have trained it for about 3000 phrases up till now. Although it is damn tough but it helps us iterate and improve basis what our users want real time :)
Ok, yeah tough work, I have been there for a side project. Check out recast.ai, might be useful as they have done that job to develop a standard language processing API
Amazing product guys! Just to let you know, I use chatfuel a lot :) I really love the simplicity and the vast tools you provide to the bot developer. I have developed several bots with your platform and i'm totaly in love with chatfuel.Keep the hard work, i'm looking forward to your updates
Thank you
Uri, thanks for the feedback, happy to hear it! Please let me know if any suggestions/ideas!
there is no need in a #bot that makes me explain myself every time I am saying something. If the bots need to get certain command or request- it would be a good idea to list the commands and requests/ resources somewhere.
thank you for the feedback. We have for now structured the conversation in a helpful manner and trained it for 3000 phrases and have also catered for basic commands like "Help", "Settings", "Home" etc. I hope I have answered your question well.
Thanks Adita! would give it a try! good luck!
It reminds me of Babun babun.io/bots
Indeed ! Look like but different though...
this is also being supervised by us :P and AI is being updated real time so for an engaging experience
Kukie looks great anyway...
Nope we can see by looking at the messages where the bot fails and update the AI, there is no human intervention while conversing with it.
Knew I'd get replaced by an FBMsgr bot one day but... so soon? Have pity!
think of as an awesome extension all the mentors, PS - I think personal mentorship can never be replaced :)
nicely made 👍 the video explains it all 😄 Good luck with the product.
Awesome product. It is very meaningful way of using facebook bots. You have made life for entrepreneur much more easy.
Thanks a lot :)
nice tool to have!!! wonderful job folks!! It is simple and elegant. Liked the way the resources are categorized!!
Thank you :) we are glad you loved it :) Let us know if you have any feedback or suggestions
Hey looks interesting, will be more cool if you can show all the resources as a list somewhere
Thank you :) Yes we are planning to have a homepage to all the resources also, will be getting that up soon.
