Allrecipes and Tito's Virtual Bartender Chatbot

Meredith Corp.’s Allrecipes social-sharing recipe platform and app announced it will be working with Tito’s Handmade Vodka to create an artificial intelligence-powered virtual bartender chatbot that recommended drinks and drink recipes to pair with meals. The chatbot, called “Barkeep,” will generate a back-and-forth conversation with Allrecipes users in real time about all things mixology and deliver cocktail recommendations that fit that user’s needs or tastes. Adding a conversion component, the chatbot also will link users to buy products and have them delivered through Drizly.
