Watson Assistant is a robust platform that allows developers and non-technical users to collaborate on building conversational AI solutions. Its powerful NLP and familiar developer features allow the rapid creation of anything from simple chatbots to complex enterprise grade solutions for customer service and more.

In addition to NLP, Watson Assistant also offers a drag-and-drop chatbot builder called Dialog which can be used to automatically generate replies to customer's inquiries. This feature is not used by Amio but is accessible via native_data key.

If you're new to Watson Assistant, we recommend checking out the documentation. It contains tutorials and examples to help you get started with your project.
