Global Chatbot Market  Growth Restraint

Lack of Accuracy & Reliability in Delivering Responses for Complex Queries: Chatbots often struggle to understand the context of a conversation accurately and thus provide incorrect or irrelevant responses. Some user queries are complex and require a higher level of language comprehension, and chatbots have limitations in handling those, leading to user frustration & dissatisfaction. Moreover, since the use of chatbots involves the processing & storage of user data, concerns over data privacy & security that may deter some users from engaging with chatbot systems, especially in sensitive sectors like finance & healthcare, also act as barriers to their adoption and thus might restrain the growth of the Chatbot Market in the coming years.

Global Chatbot Market report by MarkNtel Advisors includes segmentation analysis based on Type & Verticals. This breakdown allows businesses to identify specific market segments and tailor their marketing and product strategies accordingly, maximizing their chances of success in the market.

Based on Type:

  • Artificial Intelligence-based
  • Rule-based

Of both, AI-powered chatbots are projected to acquire a significant Chatbot Market share during 2023-28. These bots utilize AI & machine learning algorithms to understand natural language and engage in more sophisticated interactions with users. They gather more data & user feedback, which makes them smarter and more accurate in understanding user intent. In addition, they also use NLP to understand & interpret human language, which allows them to process user queries, extract meaning, and provide appropriate responses.

Unlike rule-based bots that can only provide basic information, AI-based chatbots are better equipped to handle complex queries & multi-step interactions. They can maintain context throughout a conversation by remembering previous interactions and using them to provide more personalized & relevant responses, which makes them suitable for various industries & use cases. In addition, they analyze user behavior, preferences, & history and then offer them personalized recommendations & tailored solutions, thereby enhancing their engagement & satisfaction. Hence, these aspects indicate the widening popularity & acceptance of AI-based bots, which, gradually, shall provide a significant boost to the global Chatbot Market in the years to come.

Based on Verticals:

  • BFSI
  • Retail & Ecommerce
  • Healthcare

Of them all, the Healthcare sector displays significant market growth, owing to the increasing number of partnerships between healthcare providers & Chatbot manufacturers to provide instant health assistance to patients through communication mediums like calls, chats, & video chats, among others. In addition, with the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning (ML) in Chatbots, patients can obtain instant information based on their symptoms and are assigned to the healthcare providers for deeper analysis.

In fact, Chatbots are now coming with image analysis, which is another aspect aiding in a better patient-doctor relationship and improved wellness assistance. While a nurse would spend around an hour a day to connect the patient with the doctor, chatbots act instantly. With these benefits, several healthcare organizations worldwide are increasingly adopting chatbots to facilitate patients with seamless assistance and also offer them other services like health tracking, appointment scheduling, behavior monitoring, etc., via simple conversations through different communication mediums, consequently contributing to the overall market growth.
