Welcome to Botnex
If you've spent time trying to integrate generative AI into real products, you've probably run into the same pain points I did.
Despite all the excitement around large language models, building reliable, repeatable, and user-friendly AI experiences still feels like stitching together a dozen brittle tools. Many of the "out-of-the-box" platforms are either overly rigid or require so much configuration and infrastructure work that you might as well have built the thing from scratch. I wanted something better — something simpler, more intuitive, and actually designed around how real teams build AI-first products.
That's why I started building Botnex.
Why Botnex?
Botnex is a platform for building AI flows — starting with deterministic logic to ensure reliability and structure, but designed from the ground up to support more open-ended, generative use cases as well. Think low-code meets LLMs.
I wanted to make it possible for product teams, support folks, and technical builders to design conversational logic without needing to dive deep into YAML files, state machines, or custom hosting setups. A visual builder. A flexible backend. An AI-first interface that doesn't fall apart the moment something unexpected happens.
While we’re starting with deterministic flows as a foundation, Botnex is not limited to them. Our vision is much bigger — we’re building toward a future where you can also create more open-ended, creative agents that tackle complex, generative tasks and collaborate in flexible workflows. Deterministic logic is just the beginning.
Built for Scale (and Sanity)
Under the hood, Botnex is built using the Elixir ecosystem. That choice wasn't accidental — Elixir's concurrency model and fault tolerance give us the ability to handle thousands of active agents running simultaneously without breaking a sweat. I wanted to build something that could scale naturally as usage grows, and Elixir gave me that foundation without the need for layers of patchwork infrastructure.
What We're Solving
Traditional tools often force you into rigid patterns. You end up spending more time wrestling with the system than designing great conversations. Worse, many tools treat AI like a plugin — a nice-to-have bolted onto legacy intent systems.
Botnex flips that. It assumes you're starting from AI. You're building with AI as a first-class citizen. Whether you’re designing a customer support flow or a task-specific agent, everything starts from the idea that AI is powering the experience — not just filling in the blanks.
Where We're Headed
Right now, we're focused on making it incredibly easy to build flows that work — every time. But that's just the beginning.
In the near future, we're building support for:
- MCP server integration for isolated task handling
- Multi-agent workflows that can pass tasks between specialized AI agents
- Out-of-the-box UI widgets like chat interfaces, form builders, and embeddable components that automatically connect to any Botnex backend — so you can go from flow design to live deployment with minimal setup
We're also exploring features that will enable more generative, creative AI agents — not just those that follow a strict flow, but ones that can make decisions, synthesize information, and act autonomously within safe, structured boundaries.
Botnex is growing fast, and there’s so much more I want to build. But the core idea will always be the same: make it easier to build smart, AI-powered tools without the headache.
Thanks for checking it out — I’m excited to share more soon.
