NEW PROVIDENCE, NEW JERSEY, USA, October 12, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Kirusa, a global leader in communication solutions over data networks for consumers and enterprises, today announced the addition of WhatsApp bots on DotGo Bot Store, the world’s first and only open RCS and WhatsApp bot directory. The directory was launched earlier this year featuring RCS Business Messaging (RBM) agents, also known as bots.

The directory provides information about WhatsApp bots such as description, categories, screenshots showcasing the kind of conversations that are possible using the bot, brand details, and a unique “Connect Me” button that allows a user to chat with the bot. User reviews and ratings are planned in short order. If a brand has both RCS and WhatsApp bots, the two bots are linked so the user can see information about both.

Numerous WhatsApp bots such as the World Health Organization (WHO), Qatar Airways, Virgin Atlantic, KLM Airlines, Indeed, Bose, HDFC Bank (An Indian banking and financial services company), BuyPower (Utility payment platform in Nigeria), Tata Sky (India’s leading broadcast satellite service provider), and a lot more are now available on Dotgo.com.

Kirusa also announced a new feature that enables brands and developers to list their RCS and/or WhatsApp bots onto the directory. A brand can select the option to “Submit a bot”, create an account for themselves, and upload information for their RCS and/or WhatsApp bot. The bot is reviewed for accuracy before the listing is made public. The brand can update the details of the bots at any time, including changing the screenshots and description as they add new functionality to their bots.
