    bot: Any specific brand?: [Any] [Samsung] [Intel] [Crucial]
    me: [Any]
    bot: The best deal for a 256 SSD appears to be $74.99 shipped from Newegg [Buy] [Set Alert] [Next] [Show 10]
    me: [Buy]
    bot: Here's the link: http://www.newegg.com/2d8em
In the next few years, chatbots are going to become more intelligent and more widely used. Ecommerce in particular will feel more like an "in-store interaction" through chatbots. We're starting with deals to help people find the product they're looking for and purchase with a single click (or setup an alert for future purchases).

We're a team of engineers in the Bay Area with experience building chatbot APIs and backend interactions for realtime chat applications.
