Conversational AI Builder

Build a customer-facing chatbot a small business can trust: set what it answers and what it hands to a person, ground it in the right sources, test it before launch, stand behind what it says, collect only what it needs, and hand it over so the business can keep it right.

What you'll build

Real portfolio pieces built during the course, not a certificate for its own sake. Each one is work you can show.

  • Scope and sources briefWhat a small business's website assistant does and does not do: each topic in scope or handed to a person, the one source it answers from, the rule it follows, and its disclosure wording.
  • Test results and fixesA first test run of 40 real customer questions: the failures grouped by kind, the cause and fix for each kind, the handoff for safety questions, and the launch bar set in advance.
  • Data handling noteWhat a small business's chatbot collects and why, how long conversations are kept, the platform settings changed, where the business stands under California's privacy law, and the privacy notice wording added.
  • Launch and handover runbookThe launch decision with its evidence, what must stay true afterwards, how problems will be spotted, who owns each source, and how the business reruns the test after a change.
