What are MindLink Chatbots?

What kind of chatbots can I build/connect to Skype for Business?
The range of enterprise chatbots available continues to grow and we’ve managed to gather some interesting examples of chatbots built by our customers using the MindLink API:
- JIRA/CRM Bot: Post newly raised tickets from JIRA or account information from CRM to a chatroom with links to each ticket.
- Poll Bot: Voting in chatrooms. Gauge availability for meetings or other events – or perhaps where to go for lunch with the team.
- Price Bot: Enter a stock symbol and receive a price quote.
- And many more...
Why use the MindLink API?
Using the API has a range of benefits for the enterprise especially when planning to use a highly-scaled inventory of chatbots. Benefits include:
- Build & connect chatbots to Skype for Business using minimal code
- Supports any programming language
- Centralised management capabilities, designed specifically for scaling chatbot inventories

Ready-made chatbots
We offer the following chatbots out-of-the-box and are easily deployed against your Microsoft Lync and Skype for Business environments:
