How chatbots get superpowers with LayerZ
Read Time 7 mins | Written by: Daniel Beltran
In today’s digital landscape, chatbots have become essential to customer interaction strategies. But even the most advanced conversational AI still faces a major limitation: it operates in isolation.
It can talk, but it can’t act on the website.
It can answer, but it doesn’t truly know what happened before the user typed their first message.
At LayerZ, we've built a solution that changes this dynamic completely. By combining real-time behavioral intelligence with actionable on-site controls, LayerZ transforms ordinary chatbots into powerful digital assistants that guide users, enhance journeys, and trigger meaningful actions at exactly the right moment.
Pre-Conversation Intelligence: The Chatbot’s New Superpower
One of the most transformative capabilities LayerZ introduces is the ability for chatbots to start conversations already informed.
Instead of opening with generic greetings, the chatbot receives real-time insights about the user’s on-site behavior before they type a single word:
-
What pages or products they explored
-
Where they hesitated or compared items
-
How long they engaged with key content
-
Whether they showed signs of confusion or intent
-
What critical moment they're currently in
With this context, the chatbot no longer begins blindly—it adapts instantly.
It chooses the right entry point.
It skips irrelevant questions.
It anticipates what the user is trying to achieve.
The result feels more natural, more human, and dramatically more effective. It’s a new level of conversational relevance that accelerates user paths and builds trust from the very first message.
The LayerZ User Journey Tool
LayerZ doesn’t just give chatbots situational awareness—it also connects them directly to the website experience.
The User Journey tool acts as a bridge between conversation and action, allowing chatbots to influence the interface dynamically and contextually.
Key Capabilities
-
Trigger real-time interactions on the website from chatbot intent
-
Seamlessly integrate with existing frameworks (custom or off-the-shelf)
-
Configure actions without code
-
Measure impact through detailed analytics and user journey insights
This transforms the chatbot from a simple FAQ engine into an intelligent agent capable of shaping the user experience in real time.
How It Works
The magic lies in a powerful yet simple mechanism: webhooks.
These webhooks allow the chatbot’s conversational intelligence to trigger LayerZ’s interaction engine.
-
Conversation + Behavior Analysis
The chatbot identifies intents, needs, or moments of friction—enriched by behavioral data LayerZ has already detected. -
Webhook Activation
When the right condition is met, the chatbot sends a webhook to LayerZ. -
Action Execution
LayerZ instantly performs the corresponding action on the website. -
Enhanced User Experience
The user experiences a seamless transition from conversation to interface, guided exactly where they need to go.
This closes the loop between what the user says, what the website knows, and what the experience should do next.
