Why Highbot?
There are different chatbots on the market: from classic 'block' bots, through hybrids, to AI bots on weaker models. Below we show a comparison of approaches and features — so you can quickly assess what is key in your case.
| Feature / Approach | Block Bot | Hybrid | AI (Weaker Models) | Highbot (Premium AI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| How it works | Scenarios and rules; lots of manual work and limited flexibility | Part AI, but often 'glued' to a flow; quality depends on implementation | Usually cheaper, but often loses context and requires stronger restrictions | Full context understanding, knowledge base + advanced AI models |
| In Practice | User must click through predefined paths. If they ask something unexpected -> error or human handover. | Can handle some open questions, but often falls back to buttons or strict flows. | Chats, but may hallucinate or give vague answers without deep details. | Conversational, precise answers based on your docs. Handles complex technical queries. |
| Value for Client | Frustration if path doesn't match intent. Good for simple order status checks. | Better than blocks, but still feels 'robotic' at times. | Accessible price, good for basic support, less strictly technical. | Real assistance. Feels like talking to a product expert. |
| Real Effect | Low conversion impact. High maintenance. | Moderate impact. | Good for general sites, risky for technical specs. | High conversion, trust building, support offloading. Answers, leads, sales. |
