How To Add an AI Chatbot for User Support to Your App With AI App Builder

June 23, 2026

Jotform’s AI App Builder makes it easy to create apps in various ways, whether you’re using voice prompts, existing documents, or simple text descriptions. But building your app is only the beginning. To create a more engaging and helpful experience for your users, you can add an AI chatbot directly to your app.

An AI chatbot can provide instant support, answer common questions, guide users through your app, and help them find the information they need—all without requiring manual assistance. Whether you’re building a customer support app, an internal company tool, or a service portal, adding an AI chatbot can make your app more interactive, responsive, and user-friendly.

  1. On your Workspace page, click on Create on the top-left side of the page.
