Thanks for this comparison.
For IBM Watson, it may be interested to review the Watson Conversation service (https://console.ng.bluemix.net/catalog/services/conversation). This recent service is directly focused on building chatbots using NLP.

In reply to Julia Rogers. Actually, we are a fan of Chatfuel. We've built two bots on the platform and are pretty happy with the ease of customization and extension.

Thanks Pavlo. That was quite a bit of detailed article on NLP techniques for bot makers. Certain bot tools allow you to make a bot without having to code. Have you heard about them ?

Hi Rachit,
Amazon Lex uses “Slot Types”. See the official developer docs: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lex/latest/dg/gs2-create-slot-types.html

In reply to hoodsy. Bot Builder main function is to connect different channels "from text/SMS to Skype, Slack, Office 365 mail and other popular services". I think about it as a router that helps you connect different API to get information into different channels to publish it. But there is no cognitive services inside Bot Builder itself, that's why I didn't mention it here. Still it looks like a great way to connect all services together, especially if you bind in MS esocystem (Skype, Office, etc)

How does Microsoft Bot Builder fit into the equation?

I realize LUIS, API, Wit, etc. handle NLP and NLU… what capabilities does Bot Builder enable?

In reply to Kent Weber. Tried it a bit, looks great and UI is really simple. Hope I'll find time to play with it more.
