Market Segmentation, Outlook & Regional Insights: Chatbot Market

Chatbot Market, By Type Chatbots work in two ways: rule-based and machine learning-based. In 2017, the rule-based chatbots owned around 85% of the market but their acceptance rate is anticipated to reduce over the forecast timeline. The rule-based chatbots are economical to build and are capable of handling basic customer queries, thus being the most popular chatbots in the market.

These chatbots receive their capabilities from AI and adjust their conduct based on customer interactions, which accelerate their demand in the market.   Chatbot Market, By Interface The standalone interface dominates the chatbot market and is projected to hold the majority of the share over the forecast timeline with a CAGR of 29%.
