Continuous delivery

Use your own tool chain and commit your code to popular source control systems such as Visual Studio Team System, GitHub, and Bitbucket, and then automatically publish your code into Azure.

Broader reach

Increase your interactions and reach to more customers from your website or app to email, GroupMe, Facebook Messenger, Kik, Skype, Slack, Teams, Telegram, text/SMS, and Twilio.

Boosted bot intelligence

Add the smarts to your bots with a few lines of code. Add Cognitive Services to enable your bots to see, hear, interpret, and interact in more human ways. Developers can connect to other Azure services to enrich their bots. For example, use Azure Search to create sophisticated search capabilities to your bots.

Operational agility

Scale up or down on demand. As your bots grow in popularity, you only pay for what you use. You don't have to reserve resources, and you are only charged for the number of executions and resources consumed.
