Alabot has announced its
partnership with mobile-worx, a leading mobility solutions firm to
launch Intelligent SMS Search in India. The service will be powered
by a "bot" - a self directed intelligent agent, who understands
natural human language and interacts with those using non syntax
based data inputs.This Intelligent SMS Search will enable users to
search the directory of users (from open social networks), mobile
content, local business directories, local deals, train / flight
tickets, hotel deals and movie tickets for major cities in India.
Users can eventually transact through the service. The service will
be completely supported through mobile advertising as a primary
business model and contextually relevant ads will be inserted during
the conversation as recommendations by the bot.
This interactive interface
represents the next step in the usability of mobile SMS applications
and will remove the frustrating roadblock of remembering keywords of
short code based services by combining and aggregating local search
in an extremely user friendly interface. Users can search using
phrases from English, Hindi and other languages without having to
remember syntax, sentence structure or multiple short codes. Both
Alabot and mobile-worx are in the process of forming alliances with
a slew of content partners that will drive the search service.
ZestADZ - India's leading mobile ad
marketplace will serve contextually relevant text advertisements and
related offers that will be recommended to the user during the
conversation, making the service highly contextual and non invasive.
"Alabot is a paradigm shift in how SMS services are used currently
and we are pleased to be partnering with mobile -worx to take this
innovative product to market." said Akshat Shrivastava, CEO of
Alabot. Alabot is a company working on Artificial Intelligence and
