What our next stage is for localisation
Editing the English placeholders is just our first step for localisation. We wanted to deliver this option as soon as possible. We hope to translate our English placeholders to different languages for you to select from a menu.
Some of our awesome customers have given us translations already. If you are able to help us and translate our English placeholders it would be really really appreciated.

Can I have more than one language for different bots?
Currently no. We would like to add the option of selecting a language for each bot that you create.
