Hey, Product Hunters! 👋 We are very excited to release the alpha version of Illusion.ai on PH today! 🎉🎉🎉 With Illusion.ai It’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, that’s what you are doing right now.🙀 Why not have a conversation instead? ➡️ We will both be checking this regularly throughout the day, eagerly awaiting your questions and feedback. -David
congrats on the launch! How do you compare with other offerings like Octane.ai or Chatfuel?
Maker
Thanks, ! 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.
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?
Maker
you might be using the wrong cdn. please check the documentation. If that doesn't work please send me an email with more details.
Yup - I was using my local alpha js file from 3 months ago. Seems that you made updates since then. Thanks!
I don't see how it can be considered AI when it's just a series of if else statements.
Maker
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 🇦🇮 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.
I think that's the "illusion" part! 😃 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 👍 If this takes off 🚀 then I'm sure the next step would be for smarter AI conversations. - nice execution guys 💯

I could not have said it better myself, thanks, Alan. 👌
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..."
Hey ! looks like I should have made my website () with your UI 😛
Maker
I think your site looks great, but let me know if you end up using Illusion.ai instead.
this is awesome !!
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 🤘
Maker
Wow our first evangelist! 🎉🙌
😃😃 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.👍
pretty legit!
Maker
Thanks !
Does it work with just an embed code? Also, do you offer any way to sell a product within the interface?
Maker
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: Right now we don't offer a way to sell a product, but we will in the next version.
Looks incredible
This space is going to be super-crowded. Good luck!
Nicely done! 👌
Maker
Thanks for saying so !
