This reduces uptime and improves efficiency, which helps market growth. According to Salesforce, 69% of consumers prefer to use chatbots because of the speed at which they can communicate with a brand. Additionally, the demand for voice-activated smart devices is gaining popularity due to high convenience and fully automated processes. In January 2020, Google introduced its AI-based chatbot, Meena. It is a multi-turn open domain chatbot formed end-to-end on the extracted data. Meena's neutral network contains around 2.6 billion parameters. Chatbots are poised to grow at a significant rate, so companies are poised to embrace the technology in their existing business portfolio. According to MIT Technology Review, 90% of the companies reported faster resolution of robot complaints.

MARKET TRENDS

Artificial Intelligence (AI) mass adoption rate has been used to focus on customer satisfaction with the introduction of ChatBots. Healthcare providers continually work with ChatBot companies to better help patients. The average number of patients spends around 30 minutes trying to find the right service that their local hospital can provide, and the average nurse spends 1 hour a day trying to connect with the right doctor.

Major healthcare systems use chatbots to facilitate fully conversational discovery of their services and enable seamless planning for their patients. With similar ease, vendors can now track specialists and set benchmarks through a single conversation with the help of conversational AI agents. For example, Gyant's chatbot asks patients to understand their symptoms, then sends the data to doctors, who provide diagnoses and prescribe drugs in real time. In March 2019, the company said it had pushed more than 785,000 people in Latin America to pass a diabetes test.

Healthcare providers are nowadays implementing these chatbots to interact with their patients about recent procedures and information on chronic illnesses like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, etc., which is supposed to increase patient satisfaction and decrease readmissions. In a healthcare space, chatbots provide simplicity and convenience to consumers, helping to improve workforce, productivity and consumer connection for providers. For instance, Northwell Health chatbots help patients in cancer care, and Premera Blue Cross introduced its Premera Scout chatbot to assist patients in their treatment. Additionally, the Mayo Clinic is digging into the technology by investigating voice-activated robots.

In the current market scenario, there are various mobile applications that use AI for chat bots or image analysis facilities, which are increasingly popular among mobile users. For example, take the case of Babylon, a leading AI-based mobile app that allows users to use a smart chatbot to help and link symptoms and communicate with an affected doctor via video chat.

MARKET DRIVERS AND RESTRAINTS

Some of the key factors driving the growth of the global chatbot market are the increasing demand for chatbots across various industry verticals and the focus on improving customer engagement through artificial intelligence-based chatbots. However, among the various factors responsible for slowing the growth of the chatbot market, the technological competence to host and support the functioning of the chatbot in order to provide a smooth user experience is of great importance.
