Show HN: Interbot – Get work done right from your chat app • Hacker News Board

Would be nice if the page showed me what this gives me that any of the 1000 other bots don't give me (like Hubot). Would be also amazing if it had source or some way for users to contribute their own integrations; is that in the pipeline?

Nice suggestion. Yes we would want to open this framework for custom integrations. We are trying to create a bot which is easy to setup and use with neat interactions. We will be doing this as a service integrating interesting commands and services. We would want to provide an easy way to add data to other team members eg: You can create an event and add your team members calendar too easily.

Looks nice, though it's unclear what the intentions are. Is this to become open source? Or are you going to start charging for it?

Also, any chance of adding support for the Kandan chat app?

We don't have any plans of open sourcing it at the moment. We want it to be a service and it is free. Yup we are starting with slack and we have plans to integrate Chat apps which has the API option open :)
