Guys’ key takeaways:

Reconfirmed chatbot use cases in Messenger / Social Media are:

  • Leads Generation
  • Driving Commerce
  • Customer Care

Learnings for the chatbot/messenger commerce:

  • Focus on user intent – think what your users want
  • Re-engage using sponsored messages – works extremely well as on the first saw the user may be taken away by smth else, as we often check the FB on the go
  • Measure and improve. Don’t get discouraged when starting up – it takes time to fine tune your campaign / approach

Use Cases for Spark AR Effects

Best use cases for Spark AR Effects:

  • Express aesthetic
  • Capture what I’m feeling or doing
  • Get inspired
  • Have fun
  • Make friends laugh
  • Be part of something big

But the main rule is to make the AR effects as gifts, not ads:

  • The Messenger of AirFrance, call “Lui” handles more than 80% of the airlines’ interactions
  • Over 400 projects at FB are running on the open-source technologies
  • Using PyTorch there are 400T+ predictions made per day worldwide
  • KLM (by they have turned 100 years old this October) has one of the best messaging conversational solutions within the airlines industry (see one of the attached images on the stats reached)
