Japan’s Sendai Airport is set to start a trial of Bespoke’s artificial intelligence (AI) powered chatbot adviser Bebot for a period of three months to serve travellers who speak English.

Bebot is Bespoke’s travel-focused AI technology and provides a responsive and friendly channel for queries.

Sendai Airport’s guests will be connected to Bebot automatically when accessing free Wi-Fi at the airport.

Bebot gives travellers access to airport information with regard to shops, restaurants, luggage storage, and other available services.

Other information such as Sendai tourism, transportation options, and how to get to other major areas in Japan, will be provided by the chatbot through natural-language chat.

Bebot is now available for US-based airports, hotels and travel destinations.
