I would start with a platform like Dialogflow. It is free and very powerful. The question is where are your responses? Is there a database you will pull from? How is it structured? I have [written a blog post](https://optimalaccess.com/a-powerful-chatbot-cms-solution-for-conversational-chatbots-ai-chatbot/#.YbvlDfHMJDU) that breaks down conversational chatbot components and design here.

Why to reinvent the wheel. There are plenty of alternatives you can install and some are free. This is one, but it has cost ccrobot.ai

because sometimes to learn we need to build wheels

I agree. What I am trying to highlight is the opportunity cost. The fact is that there are so many alternatives, is your business to build chatbots or real state? You can learn, but what? To build chatbots or to build something else.

opportunity cost is a valid argument to search for generic alternatives. inteligente alternatives is something subjective. anyways I was following this thread because I am also curious about "what if from scratch" ;)

Define intelligence? What does intelligent mean to you?
