HubSpot Bot Directory - Discover the best bots that you need to grow your business

Hey Product Hunters! You’ve probably had the experience of a really bad chatbot not doing what you expected it to do. We had the same problem and it seems like there is a new bot popping up everyday. A couple of us at HubSpot (@ajavuu @victorpan @tswyter @smcelhinney @matt_inbound @hellofrommandy) have been hard at work in the past couple of months trying to tackle this issue. The list isn’t huge at the moment but it takes a long time trying to hand pick the best bots and we will be adding on more bots in the upcoming months. Check it out and see if you like it. If you don’t, let us know why and we will be stoked to improve the experience.

Congrats on the launch—looks like a great directory! Thanks for adding @askobie 😄 Curious as to how you differentiate the directory from those like @botlistco? Just more of a curated list for business applications? cc: @sethlouey

We were thrilled to discover this morning that Ottspott was listed in the customer support section of this list. Hubspot has done a great job in handpicking the best/most used bots in each category and we're super proud to be part of their choice.

Our teams at Ottspott also use a handful of bots listed here.

Thanks Hubspot, Justin, Victor and Aja for this great job 🙌

Pros:

- Cross-platform

- Categories pretty much cover all the needs

- Hand picked & independent choice

Cons:

None for now, great initative 👏

It seems like there’s a bot being created every other day now. If you’re feeling a little overwhelmed by the overload of information like me, the HubSpot Bot Directory was created to help you differentiate the signal from the noise. The Bot Directory is a curated list of bots hand-picked by the people at HubSpot to help you identify the right bots to use to grow your business. The bots are checked for quality, reliability & ability to perform the tasks that was promised. You no longer have to install or pay for a bot to check out what it does. The directory features the sample commands, price & description of what the bot does. Bots that are featured works across all the major platforms like Facebook Messenger, Slack, Telegram, Skype as well as some of the smaller platforms like Viber & Kik. There’s also a variety of bots ranging from the biggest brands like CNN & Dribbble to independent developers.

Great initiative. And thanks for including Ottspott along other great bots we love too ❤️

What does it mean when you say 'The best bots, according to voting bots'? Thanks for featuring Stumpy 😄

Great to see a hand-picked list of bots they tested from companies that are active and thriving (as opposed to some of the stale directories that are out there). You'll find the key categories and bots on this list. Good stuff.

Pros:

- Curated list of good stuff

- Great design with the right amount of info

Cons:

- Bots/products are changing quickly, so they need a way to stay up to date on each of the products

Intriguing... I will keep watching @askdossnow #realestate #askDOSS
