Top 10 AI Chatbots Your Business Should Know About

We kick off our list with Jasper, a conversational AI powered by OpenAI’s GPT 3-5 that specialises in creating creative content for marketing teams. Starting at $39 per month, Jasper is the only AI specifically designed to be trained on the unique styles of its customers, allowing companies to generate content that is consistently on-brand across teams. From creating new advertising campaigns in minutes to creating strategic, high-converting copy, Jasper can write in over 50 different templates to produce effective marketing content for blog posts, social media posts, video scripts and more. 

While it may be trained on the same language model as ChatGPT, Jasper offers an expansive list of tools to produce better copy, including the ability to check for grammar, spelling and plagiarism. The only downside is that it can only write texts upon prompt, whereas other chatbots on this list include several other functions in addition to this. Nevertheless, Jasper is a solid investment for companies churning out written marketing content on a daily basis. 

Ada’s conversational AI platform is a fantastic choice for companies looking to resolve large numbers of customer support inquiries with minimal human effort. With prebuilt workflows and generative AI for automated actions, Ada’s AI Chatbot can handle complex inquiries and resolve them in real-time without the need for human interaction. Paired with Ada’s advanced resolution engine, this allows businesses to extract relevant conversations and customer details to provide personalised support, automate customer service operations, and boosting customer satisfaction and reduce response times. 

While Ada may be more expensive than other AI solutions on this list, the chatbot offers additional multimodal support for digital and voice channels, providing customers with a range of options for contacting the business and resolving their issues. It can also resolve inquiries in over 50 languages, making it easy for businesses to communicate with customers from all around the world, no matter where they are based. 

Next up we have Salesforce Einstein GPT, a powerful AI chatbot designed to empower companies to get the most out of the Salesforce service cloud. The first comprehensive AI platform for CRMs, Einstein provides an integrated set of AI tools that makes Salesforce Customer 360 much more intuitive and streamlines conversations with customers. Integrated with OpenAI, these tools provide companies with new and advanced generative AI capabilities, leveraging real-time data to make employees more productive and every customer experience better. 

By combining proprietary Einstein AI models with ChatGPT or other leading large language models, companies can use natural-language prompts on CRM data to trigger powerful, time-saving automation, and create personalized, AI-generated content. Einstein can also auto-generate personalised agent chat replies to increase customer satisfaction through personalised and expedited service interactions. While a phenomenal tool, the only reason Einstein isn’t higher on this list is that it is only limited to customers on the Salesforce cloud, meaning that it is not suitable for a large number of companies.

But the holy grail of Aivo is its conversation engine, which, through its integration with ChatGPT, takes interaction capabilities to a whole new level. Businesses can leverage unique auto-generated responses, complementing confidential and transactional responses to create an outstanding customer service experience all year round.

Unlike other entries on this list, Tidio’s Lyro is specially designed to create personalised, fast and efficient customer service experiences for small to medium businesses. Powered by Anthorpic AI’s Claude, the AI chatbot can analyse conversations and improve answers based on previous conversations, using data from the business’s website to create and provide intuitive responses to user queries. Unlike, Traditional chatbots which are handcuffed by pre-designed conversational paths, this intelligence allows it to understand customer questions and engage in sophisticated, human-like conversations. This makes it one of the most scaleable solutions on this list as every conversation with Lyro is better than the last. 

While Lyro is limited to user questions and queries, its implementation saves huge amounts of resources by allowing human agents to focus on the inquiries that require human interaction.

Our number two spot goes to Hubspot’s Chatspot, an AI-powered sales and marketing assistant that combines the power of ChatGPT with dozens of unique data sources to help businesses unleash the power of generative AI. While ChatSpot is tailor-made to businesses in the growth stage, it offers free access to businesses of all shapes and sizes – even those that don’t use the Hubspot CRM. Companies can use the chat tool to run reports, create tasks, research leads, and even analyse data through the tool’s integration with HubSpot data, allowing companies to dive deep into company data like funding rounds, locations, and technologies used.

The tool can also save teams huge amounts of time by automating tasks like content creation, report writing, and analytics process, freeing up time for more important business activities. ChatSpot is still in its alpha stage and still under continuous testing, meaning there are still some improvements yet to be made. But it is still an incredibly useful tool for businesses looking to streamline operations – especially those using the HubSpot CRM.
