AI chatbot development
that knows when to hand over.
Customer-service bots and internal assistants that answer from your own documents and systems. On your website, WhatsApp, Teams, Slack or inside your app. When the bot is out of its depth, a person takes over with the full conversation in front of them.
A chatbot is only as good as what it refuses to answer.
Most chatbots fail in one of two ways. They invent an answer when they don't know, or they trap the customer in a loop with no way out. We design against both. The bot answers only from sources you approve, says so when it can't find the answer, and passes the conversation to a person before frustration sets in.
We start with the questions your team actually gets. Helpdesk exports, inbox samples and call notes show what to cover first and what to leave to people. We turn those real questions into a test set and check every release against it. That way a prompt change or a model update can't quietly make the answers worse.
Shipped under this discipline.

What we build, channel by channel.
Most projects start with one channel and one audience, then widen once the answers hold up. We agree the scope, the escalation rules and the test set before the build starts.
Customer-service chatbots.
Order, account and policy questions answered around the clock, from your help centre, product data and order systems. Each answer links to its source. Anything involving money, complaints or personal data follows the escalation rules you set.
Internal knowledge assistants.
Staff ask in plain language and get an answer from your policies, procedures and wikis, with a link to the page it came from. The assistant respects existing permissions, so people only see documents they could already open.
Human handoff and helpdesk integration.
When the bot hands over, the agent sees the transcript, the customer's details and what the bot already tried. We connect to Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, HubSpot and Salesforce, so tickets, contacts and history stay in the tools your team already uses.
Web, WhatsApp, Teams and Slack.
One assistant, several front doors. A website widget, WhatsApp Business, Microsoft Teams, Slack or a chat screen inside your own app. Every channel shares the same knowledge and rules, so the answer doesn't change with the channel.
Arabic, English and voice.
Assistants that detect the customer's language and reply in it, including Arabic with right-to-left layout in the widget. Where phone calls matter more than chat, we add speech-to-text and text-to-speech so the same assistant can take voice queries.
Analytics and guardrails.
A dashboard of what people asked, what the bot answered, where it handed over and which questions it couldn't answer. That last list becomes your content backlog. Guardrails cover off-topic requests, prompt-injection attempts, personal data and subjects the bot must never discuss.

Each kind of AI work has its own page. Most projects combine two: an assistant grounded in your data, and an agent or integration that acts on it.

Four things drive it: the number of channels, the number of systems it connects to, the languages it supports and how much content it answers from. A single-channel bot over a tidy help centre is a small project. A multilingual assistant that reads orders from your CRM and hands over to a helpdesk is a larger one. Running cost depends on conversation volume and model choice, and we estimate both before you commit.
Yes, and we treat it as a core feature rather than a fallback. You set the triggers: low confidence, a named topic such as a complaint, a frustrated customer or a direct request for a person. The agent gets the transcript and customer details in their helpdesk, so the customer doesn't repeat themselves. Outside staffed hours the bot takes a message and opens a ticket instead.
Yes. The bot replies in the language the customer writes in, and the widget supports right-to-left text. Arabic quality varies more between models than English does, and Gulf dialects add another layer, so we test candidate models on your own Arabic questions before choosing one. If your content exists only in English, we decide together whether to translate it or let the model answer across languages.
It answers only from content you approve and is told to say it doesn't know rather than guess. Each answer carries a link to its source so staff can check it. Before every release we run the test set of real customer questions. Anything the bot can't answer goes to a person and onto the analytics list for your team to fill.
Yes. We integrate with Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, HubSpot and Salesforce through their APIs, and with in-house systems where an API exists. The bot can look up an order or ticket, create a case or update a contact, within permissions we agree with you. Read-only access comes first. Write access is added only where it is clearly needed.
A chatbot holds a conversation: it answers questions, collects details and passes work to people. An agent carries out multi-step tasks on its own, such as processing a refund from start to finish. Many customer-service projects begin as a chatbot and add a few agent-style actions once the answers are reliable. If you need autonomous workflows from day one, our AI agent development service is the better fit.
