This guide will help you focus on what you should improve your chatbot's design.
The 7 categories of chatbot's design
Personality
Does the chatbot have a clear voice and tone that fits with the users and with the ongoing conversation?
Onboarding
Are users understanding what is the chatbot about? and how to interact with him from the very beginning?
Understanding
Requests, smalltalk, idioms, emojis... What is the chatbot able to understand?
Answering
What elements does the chatbot send and how well it is doing it? Are they relevant to the moment and context?
Navigation
How easy is to go through the chatbot conversation? Do you feel lost sometimes while speaking with the chatbot?
Error management
How good is the chatbot dealing with all the errors that are going to happen? Is able to recover from them?
