ALP Platforms

Advanced low code Platforms are tools and solutions that allow developers and businesses to integrate NLP and contextual functionalities into applications, products, or services. They try to determine user intents and recognize entities. In the phrase, “Book me a ticket to Paris for tomorrow,” “Paris” is an entity representing a location, and “tomorrow” is an entity representing a date. They also perform sentiment analysis to determine the sentiment or emotion behind a piece of text.  Furthermore, the platforms can translate, summarize, and convert text to speech.

Low-code platforms allow users to easily build AI chatbots with premade templates, libraries, and actions. Most have a drop-and-drop user interface and integrate easily with other systems.
