AI Chatbot Developer in Vancouver
Handbuilt is a Lower Mainland AI chatbot developer building custom website and messaging chatbots for Vancouver businesses. Each bot is trained on your real services, pricing, hours, and FAQs to answer customers and capture leads around the clock. Fixed CAD pricing starts at $1,500, and you own the finished bot — not a rented widget.
The problem
A generic chatbot widget that answers everything with "I'll connect you to a human" just annoys Vancouver customers and adds no value. What actually helps is a bot that knows your business, gives real answers, and captures the lead's details when someone's ready to buy — without a monthly per-conversation meter.
What this looks like in practice
Say a Vancouver service business gets steady website traffic but few inquiries because visitors can't get a quick answer after hours. A chatbot trained on the business could answer the common pre-sales questions, qualify the visitor, and capture their details or book a call — turning quiet traffic into actual leads.
The lift depends on how much of your traffic arrives with a question you already answer by email — but that's often where a well-built chatbot pays back.
How it works
- 1
Discovery call — review your site, your FAQs, and what a good lead looks like.
- 2
Scoped proposal — a flat CAD price and the exact scope of the bot.
- 3
Build & test — trained on your content and tested against real questions.
- 4
Handoff & support — embedded on your site; optional $99/mo Care Plan.
What a custom Vancouver chatbot does
It answers the questions your customers actually ask, in your wording, and hands off cleanly when a human is genuinely needed. Instead of a decision-tree bot, it uses a language model grounded in your real business content, so answers are relevant rather than robotic — and it captures the lead when the conversation is ready.
- Answering service, pricing, hours, and area questions
- Qualifying visitors and capturing their contact details
- Booking a call or appointment when there's intent
- Routing genuinely complex questions to you
Local developer, real ownership
You work directly with the developer building the bot, and you keep the finished system. For deeper needs — connecting the chatbot to your CRM, booking tool, or a custom workflow — it can grow into a larger AI system rather than hitting a plan ceiling.
