What is a Penguin Bot?

A Penguin Bot is a basic chatbot that follows predefined rules and replies to user messages. It is designed for simple tasks and straightforward conversations.

Key Features:

  • Follows commands: Responds to specific user inputs or questions.

  • Waits for input: Only replies when the user sends a message.

  • Handles one task at a time: Does not remember previous conversations.

  • Easy to configure: Uses simple workflows or rule-based logic.


What is a Penguin Agent?

A Penguin Agent is an advanced digital assistant that uses artificial intelligence to understand context, remember conversations, and act more like a human helper.

Key Features:

  • Can take initiative: Suggests options or performs actions without being prompted.

  • Remembers context: Understands and uses previous interactions to improve responses.

  • Handles complex tasks: Supports longer, goal-based conversations.

  • Feels more human: Uses natural language and adapts to the situation.
