What is an AI agent? A menu chatbot versus an AI agent
On this page 4
The short answer
An AI agent is AI software that reads the customer's message as written — in their dialect, with their typos, or as a voice note — understands what they mean, answers from your own information, then takes a step: records an order or booking, or hands the chat to a person. A menu chatbot shows fixed buttons and understands nothing outside them.

Why does AI agent matter to a seller?
Because Arab customers write in dialect and ask outside menus, and a bot that does not understand loses the sale. But a good agent has clear limits: it answers from what you wrote and invents no price or promise.
