AI Chatbot Integration for Digital Marketplace: A Case Study

This client has an app that provides a digital marketplace service where creators, their followers, and impactful businesses can meet. HDWEBSOFT was trusted to build a real-time AI Chatbot integration as a platform for content creators and influencers to assist them with their targeted promotional campaigns.

Features

The chatbot has several features that allow it to offer support to influencers and creators effectively. These features include:

Seamless data at the fingertips

• Target Crawling: Gone are the days of generic search. With this chatbot, creators can input the types of products they want to promote along with their cause areas of interest. The chatbot will then generate a list of recommendations that fit the users’ queries, including product URLs from the client’ vendor.
• Real-time capacity: The chatbot provides real-time, AI-powered product recommendations with aggregated impact ratings for those that best-fit users’ criteria. It will reduce work and increase efficiency in creators’ affiliate marketing efforts.

Digital Asset Creation

• Automated Content Creation: Influencers and content creators no longer have to self-design their digital assets for social media sharing; the chatbot saves them less work.
• Content Promotion: The automated digital assets and badges are in infographic format, which is easy to read and understand. This feature helps promote users’ content campaigns and increases the chances of conversion.

Technical Challenges

We faced several technical hurdles that arose during the chatbot’s development:

• Integrating AI Chatbot into client’s application: Our client has a mobile application that they want to integrate the chatbot. It must work seamlessly on both iOS and Android operating systems.
• Achieving Accurate and Response Generation: We must ensure the chatbot’s Q&A flow meets our client’s requirements. It must be responsive and generate the desired answer to users’ queries.
• Digital Assets Generation: The images and the parameters must be filled into the template in accordance with real-time data. We need to re-render the client’s returned template and carefully calculate to input the dynamic data.
• Custom API for chatbot: The API requires 2 main criteria: generating URL and digital assets. The URL returned should be injected with each user’s referral tags.

Solutions

Although we encountered obstacles during chatbot development, we successfully delivered a solution that met our client’s expectations. Key strategies were instrumental in overcoming these challenges:

• Thorough research and persistence: The AI Chatbot was built using VoiceFlow, an AI-driven tool. We had to read through the documentation, follow it, and update it so it met all the client’s requirements.
• AI technology integration: Real-time, AI-powered product recommendations are driven by a combination of AI technologies. Recommendation systems analyze user behavior and preferences to suggest relevant products, while NLP ensures the chatbot understands user queries. ML is employed to refine recommendation models, and real-time data processing enables immediate product suggestions based on up-to-date information.
• Python for custom API: HDWEBSOFT has worked with Python for more than 12 years on countless projects. It provides a robust foundation for building scalable and maintainable APIs. See our Python development services.
• Optimize Pillow usage: We leverage Pillow, a Python Imaging Library, to manipulate images effectively. The products and dynamic data are drawn on the base template, not rendered simply from the code source.

Business Outcomes

The chatbot has been a success for the client. It has been used to provide the intent features, and it has helped to improve business revenue in the following ways:

• Increased campaign efficiency: The AI chatbot significantly reduces manual effort and time spent on campaign planning by automating product discovery, asset creation, and recommendation.
• Generate leads and increase conversion rate: Facilitating more effective campaigns and driving higher conversions can contribute to increased revenue for both the client and their partners.
• Data-driven insights: The chatbot can provide users with insightful information for their affiliate marketing campaigns while keeping them in check.
• Competitive advantage: Offering a cutting-edge AI tool can position the platform as a leader in the industry and attract more content creators and influencers.
