Thanks @bentossell! My favorite updates are Collections and Pro accounts to assist in discovery. We've improved search, gave users their own identity with new profile pages, and are improving the SEO.
Some things on our roadmap is the ability to give bot makers to claim their bot pages to edit them, giving users the ability to mark themselves as "for hire", adding a marketplace, and some more secret stuff.

@bentossell Thanks for the hunt Ben, and for the help getting BotList of the ground originally 😁
We're very excited to see the space continue to grow and evolve, and see the role of BotList grow likewise. Seth has outlined a lot of the things we've done, and some that we plan to do, but I think the best thing we can do, is listen to the users and their needs, and attempt to satisfy their needs.
Give us your feedback!
Thanks so much for the hunt @ericwillis!
BotList has come a long way since it's initial launch a little over a year ago. We've tested thousands and thousands of bots since launch and receive over 60k users per month visiting the site looking for bots.
Since our initial launch, we've been busy working alongside the community trying to fully understand their frustrations within the chatbot industry, so we could better assist them.
We came up with a fantastic roadmap and we're very excited to share BotList 2.0 with you today. Phase I of our plan was to create a more polished platform for future progression and growth for our community and to do that we added some new features.
There are many new features, but the feature that I'm most excited for is BotList Pro accounts! ⚡️ Pro accounts allow users to get exclusive features, offers, and more!
What are your thoughts about BotList and the chatbot industry? I'd love to know. 🤖
@tomfme I don't think that it's that far off. BotList's Messenger bot receives tons of messages daily from people searching for bots to assist them.
Yes, does need improvement, but with bots like the Golden State Warriors bot, there's no doubt for mass adoption. Another great thing about bots, updating the technology is 3x faster than traditional apps.
@sethlouey Would be nice to have the line breaks in description https://www.evernote.com/shard/s... compare to https://sliday.slack.com/apps/A2...
Cheers!
@stas_kulesh detail pages are next on our list to be updated. Not sure how I missed that one, but we'd like to display more information about the bot. Like, was the bot built with say Chatfuel or custom.
Great progress!!
I love how users can curate bot collections... Bot Lists on BotList!
I have had the pleasure of watching this product grow to the behemoth it has become today... Not enough to say there's a great dedicated team behind this work.
Best regards moving forward!
JB.
PS- It would be cool if Search Engines such as Google/Bing/etc. could leverage chat-bot usage into their Search Bars/Search Results... For example: Searching "Hotels in San Francisco" could result in "Chat-Bot Search Results" where users can select a chat-bot to chat-through the booking process with in-search-engine-browser. Thoughts?
@jay_bee12345 hey JB! You've been around for a bit 😉 and thanks for the great comment!
The great thing about being this "behemoth" of a bot community is that we get to work closely with some of the largest messenger platforms and companies. We are constantly look for partnerships and making moves in the background. We have some non-consumer stuff that we're working through now. 👍 Stay tuned.
@leftearpod thanks Jake! Not too shabby for a side project turned bootstrapped company. ;)
The updates look good. Proud to have the hair color matching AI bot on Botlist, Madi! https://botlist.co/bots/1664-mad...
Awesome job @sethlouey. We've been on Botlist since the very early days and it has been impressive to see all the progress you guys made over time. Great job, congrats on the launch and thank you for building Botlist!
@sivola Thank you for sticking with us! We will continue to evolve the site and create tools for bot makers such as yourself.
Excellent work on this platform. I'm confident it will help expand the world of bots to so many people. Congratulations @sethlouey and your team.
@nathan_d_harris thanks a ton. Education is definitely very important to us. Which is why we are building up BotList Labs on Facebook. 😉
Question - why am I seeing new bots on the first view?
I would like to see some interesting bots rather than new bots, because some of them suck.
@paladinint we test the bots on our platform. Collections will open the homepage up a bit. They give us the opportunity to feature a new form of content that breaks up the listing.
Something we will definitely be testing in the near future.
@sethlouey really nice update with BotList 2.0!! Thanks a lot for submitting Landbot xD
Congratulations BotList team! Really excited for the marketplace and botmaker features coming up 👍
Thanks @juannikin. I'm also very excited for the marketplace! I have a few bots I would like to sell. ;)
@kevin_kozak thank man! Can't wait to get your bot up on BotList. Taking the music industry by storm ;)
