Hey! I'm one of the makers here Appreciate any thoughts anyone else. WE are all ears :) Mobile responsive isnt in place yet so apologies for that. Trying to get bots/AI from different platforms in one central, 3rd party place - not owned by Facebook/Slack/Kik etc. We are looking to update more information - probably giving the bot makers the ability to take control of their page, add more info and images so hopefully…

Very cool site! I can see this fleshing out to be a very useful aggregator.

I just submitted my bot StatusGator (https://statusgator.com) and I'm wondering more about what that $50 payment would get me if I paid for a quick review. Someone would actually sign up for my service and try it out then post a review on your site?

Saw an error and a PHP call stack and relative directories, should disable that from being visible on a production webpage.

Are these bots just for slack? What do you consider to be a "bot"?

Hopefully the author can weigh in a bit on what they consider a bot. I have a SaaS app that posts to Hipchat/Flowdock/Slack and includes a Slack slash command for interacting with it. I am presuming that qualifies as a "bot" but it's certainly no AI.

Fixing that right now.

I was thinking the same thing. I'll admit that I'm out of the loop when it comes to slack but I've heard they don't support IRC. Seems too bad to me as IRC would make a great platform for all bots rather than just for one platform.
