Users interact with digital devices more than ever, including their phones, smart speakers, and chatbots. But creating a successful conversation takes a combination of linguistic, UX, psychology and technological expertise.
What is Conversation Design
Conversation design is a fascinating field that bridges the gap between human communication and digital interfaces (chatbots, voice assistants, virtual agents, and more). It’s the art and science of creating engaging, natural, and effective interactions between humans and digital systems.
At eSuccess our goal is to bring together different conversational elements-people and machines-to promote mutual understanding.
Did you know Conversation design is the future of the UX?
A U.S.-based survey found that nearly 73% of participants would not use a company’s app/bot again after a bad experience with it.
