Researched and drafted with AI assistance from the sources listed on this page. We have not built or tested bots on these platforms yet. Method: [How we review](https://chatbots.reviews/en-gb/how-we-review)

Pick what the bot is for, where it must work and who will build it. The finder filters our product database, the same documented facts behind every review, and shows why each builder was kept or dropped. It is a filter, not a recommendation engine: it narrows the list, and the reviews help you choose.

_A filter over documented facts. Matches are ordered by fit, then by rubric score. It is not based on hands-on tests. Budgets compare the vendor's entry price in its own currency._

## How the finder decides

- **Hard requirements exclude.** A channel, EU data hosting, self-hosting or a budget removes every builder that does not meet it, and the reason is shown. EU hosting and self-hosting count only when the vendor documents them fully; a partial answer is treated as not met.
- **Budgets compare entry prices in the vendor's own currency**, without conversion. A builder with a free plan passes every budget. A builder whose prices are not published is dropped from the paid budgets.
- **Use case and skill decide the order.** A builder made for your job ranks above one that is not, and a match on who will build it comes next.
- **The rubric score breaks ties.** When two builders fit equally well, the one with the higher score from [how we review](https://chatbots.reviews/en-gb/how-we-review) comes first.
- **Nothing is based on tests.** The finder reads documentation facts. We have not run bots on these platforms; the [reference-bot test](https://chatbots.reviews/en-gb/reference-bot-test) is designed but not yet run.

## What it cannot tell you

The finder cannot judge how good a bot's answers will be, how long a build takes, or what your bill will be at your volume. It does not know your helpdesk, your CRM or your legal requirements. Treat the results as a shortlist, then read each review and pricing page, and check the billing unit before comparing prices.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does the chatbot finder rank builders?

The chatbot finder first removes builders that miss a hard requirement, such as a channel, EU hosting, self-hosting or budget. It then orders the rest by fit with your use case and builder skill, and breaks ties with our published rubric score. It is a filter over documented facts, not a recommendation engine.

### Is the chatbot finder based on testing the products?

No. The chatbot finder uses the facts in our product database, which come from vendor pricing pages, help centres and trust pages. We have not built or run bots on these platforms; our reference-bot test is designed but not yet run.

### Why was a chatbot builder excluded by the finder?

The chatbot finder lists every excluded builder with its reason, such as no documented channel, no free plan or an entry price above your budget. EU hosting and self-hosting only count when the vendor documents them fully. If the vendor has changed its offer, report it and we will re-check the source.

> **Scored from public documentation, on a rubric you can read.** Scores come from five published criteria: pricing clarity, access, builder depth, reach and handoff, and data and trust. Every price and limit is stored once, in one product database, with a link to its source, so no two pages on this site can disagree. Rubric v1.0 · The reference-bot build test has not been run yet. Until it has, no page here says a product was tested.
