Rasa Core
Rasa Core is a framework for building conversational software, which includes
chatbots on:
- Facebook Messenger
- Slack
- Microsoft Bot Framework
- Rocket.Chat
- Mattermost
- Telegram
- Twilio
But you can also build assistants using:
- Alexa Skills
- Google Home Actions
Rasa Core's primary purpose is to help you build contextual, layered
conversations with lots of back-and-forth. To have a real conversation,
you need to have some memory and build on things that were said earlier.
Rasa Core lets you do that in a scalable way.
There's a lot more background information in this
blog post.
