AI Chatbot Development

Customer-facing chatbots and internal assistants that resolve real queries — grounded in your data, measured for accuracy.

Most chatbots are deflection machines — they exist so fewer people email support, and users can tell. We build the other kind: AI chatbots that actually resolve things, because they are grounded in your real documentation, connected to your real systems, and measured against your real definition of a correct answer.

What we build

Customer support assistants that answer from your help centre, policies and product data — with citations where it matters — and hand off to a human the moment confidence drops, with full context attached so the customer never repeats themselves.

Product assistants that live inside your app: onboarding guides, “how do I…” answers, settings navigation, data questions (“what did I spend on X?”) — the feature that makes your product feel like it has a manual nobody has to read.

Internal helpdesks for HR, IT and ops questions, grounded in the policy documents your team never reads until they need them.

Bots that act. Checking an order, rescheduling a delivery, filing the ticket — with explicit permissions and audit logs. When the conversation needs multi-step reasoning across systems, that is agent territory, and we build that too.

Why grounding is the whole game

A chatbot that answers from the model’s general training is a liability with your logo on it. Ours answer through retrieval over your content — the technique we explain here — so responses reflect what your business actually says and does. Update the document, and the bot’s next answer updates with it. No retraining, no stale answers from last year’s pricing page.

Measured, not vibes-checked

Before launch we build an evaluation set from your real queries — the common ones, the weird ones, the adversarial ones — and every change to the bot must pass it. You get a number for accuracy and hallucination rate, dashboards for resolution and escalation once live, and a feedback loop that turns bad answers into next week’s fixes. “It seems pretty good” is not a launch criterion.

The build

Weeks 1–2: knowledge audit and retrieval pipeline over your sources. Weeks 3–5: conversation design, guardrails, integrations, evaluation suite. Weeks 6–8: staged rollout — internal, then a traffic slice, then full — with escalation flows tested under real load. Budget-wise, see what a chatbot actually costs; ongoing inference for most support bots is modest and monitored from day one.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the chatbot in our helpdesk tool?

Off-the-shelf bots answer from a generic template and plateau quickly. A custom bot is grounded in your actual documentation and data, follows your policies, integrates with your systems to take real actions, and is measured against your definition of a correct answer.

What does an AI chatbot cost to build?

A grounded support or product assistant typically runs $15k–$60k to build depending on knowledge sources and integrations, plus modest monthly inference costs. Our chatbot cost guide breaks the number down.

Will it make things up to customers?

Every LLM can err, so we engineer for it: answers grounded in retrieved sources, guardrails that check output before it ships, honest 'let me connect you to a human' paths, and hallucination rates that are measured in evaluation — not discovered on Twitter.

Can it actually do things — check an order, book a slot?

Yes. With explicit permissions and audit logs, the bot can call your systems to look up orders, update records or book appointments. That crosses into agent territory — see our AI agent development service.

Which channels can it live on?

Web widget, inside your app, WhatsApp, Slack or Teams, or wired into helpdesk tools like Zendesk and Intercom — same brain, multiple faces.

How long until it's live?

A grounded assistant over existing documentation typically ships in 4–8 weeks including evaluation and a staged rollout.
