Hi folks, 
I got a nice reference over the weekend from friends at Carto about the chatbot they've customized to read when people write in natural language questions like "i want a map of population within 50 feet of sea level for south america", and automatically respond by making the actual map (correctly, even). 

They are using API.ai. Anyone dealt with that before?

I've dealt with IBM Bluemix Watson Conversations API and created some chatbots. 

Example Bad Actor Management (Petronas). [After giving it your name, you can ask it - "What is Bad Actor Management ?" and it'll use Watson Discovery Service to give you the top 4 results]

The API.ai interface is similar to Conversations in the fact that it uses the same concept of Intents and Entities. I can have a look and try and setup a sample flow.
