AI Chatbots
AI chatbot development services — website, WhatsApp, customer service and e-commerce chatbots grounded in your content, with guardrails and human handoff.
HandsOnTech builds AI chatbots for websites, WhatsApp and e-commerce that answer only from your approved content, cite their sources, qualify leads and hand off to humans gracefully — deployed in 3–6 weeks with monitoring included.
A chatbot is your most-exposed employee: it talks to more prospects than anyone on staff. We build ones that answer from your real content instead of improvising — and prove it on staging where you can try to break them first.
The chatbot graveyard, and how to stay out of it
Every user has met a bad bot: the loop of “I didn’t understand,” the generic answers scraped from nothing, the hidden exit to a human. Those bots were deployed, not built — a widget pointed at a website and left to improvise. Ours are grounded in your curated content with citations, scoped to what they’re allowed to discuss, wired to your systems so they can act — check an order, book a slot, quote your real prices — and rehearsed against an eval set built from your genuine customer conversations before anyone meets them.
Every channel your customers already use
Website chatbots that load lazily and keep your Core Web Vitals green. WhatsApp bots on the official Business API, with opt-ins and template approvals handled. Customer service bots that live inside Zendesk, Intercom or Freshdesk and deflect the routine 60–80% of tickets. E-commerce bots that read live Shopify inventory and recover abandoned carts conversationally. One grounded knowledge base powers all of them, so the answer a customer gets at 2am on WhatsApp matches the one on your pricing page — and both match what your team would say.

Common questions
How long does it take to launch an AI chatbot?
Most website chatbots go live in 3–6 weeks: one to ingest and structure your content, one to two for conversation design and integration, one for staging tests and guardrail tuning. WhatsApp and e-commerce bots add integration time for messaging APIs and product catalogs.
What does an AI chatbot cost to run monthly?
Model costs at typical small-business traffic usually land between $20 and $300 monthly — we estimate yours from real traffic before launch, add caching to keep it down, and set spend alerts so a traffic spike never becomes a surprise invoice.
