Training Your Bot

Teach the bot to understand free-text answers with training data, AI assistance, and evaluation.

When your dialog asks open, free-text questions, people will phrase their answers in dozens of different ways — and your bot needs to recognise what they mean and react accordingly. The Train module is where you teach it. You give the bot examples of what participants might say and how it should respond, and the matching engine takes care of the rest. This chapter shows you how to build that knowledge: creating training data by hand, generating it with AI, testing how well it matches, and managing the global knowledge base that spans your whole dialog.
