What are the best chatbot use cases?

The best chatbot use cases are high-volume, repeatable requests: answering support FAQs, tracking orders, starting returns and refunds, resetting passwords, qualifying leads, booking appointments, onboarding new users, collecting feedback, and handling internal IT and HR requests. AI agents extend these to tasks that need account data or actions.

How to pick your first use case

Choose a request that is frequent, well documented, low risk, and easy to measure. Password resets and order status are classic starting points.

From chatbot to agent

Scripted chatbots handle the first column well. AI agents connected to business systems can complete the whole task, such as finding the order, issuing a credit, and updating the CRM, with approvals for sensitive steps.
