How to Access Bot Builder

Kore.ai Bots platform enables you to launch enterprise-grade, AI-enabled conversational chatbots using Bot Builder; an intuitive graphical interface for building, training, testing, and monitoring bots.

Whether you are looking to build a complex Bot that has to make multiple calls to your backend systems with conditional routing, or a Bot that sends contextual notifications to your users, or even a Bot that responds to their queries, Bot building has never been easier.

Accessing Bot Builder

To access the Kore.ai Bot Builder platform, visit https://bots.kore.ai/. You will be directed to the login page.

You can sign up for Kore.ai Bot Builder in any of the following two ways:

• Create a new account: Bot Builder allows any user to sign up for the platform using their email address. You can sign up to create a personal account or even take the lead in setting up your enterprise’s account in Kore.ai. After you sign up for the account, you automatically become the account’s Admin, which allows you to invite other users to the account.
• Join an existing enterprise account: If your enterprise is already on Kore.ai, you can become a part of the account in one of the following ways:
  • Your enterprise account’s Bots Admin sends you an invite. If you haven’t already received the invitation email, reach out to your Bots Admin for access.
  • You can sign up using your enterprise email account and you are prompted to either join the enterprise network or create your own personal account.
• Single-Sign On Account: You can also sign up using Google, Microsoft Office or LinkedIn profiles.
