# AI Agent Chatbot

The [Crypto.com AI Agent Chatbot](https://github.com/crypto-com/developer-platform-sdk-examples/tree/main/sdk-examples/categories/chatbot) is an example of an application built with the suite of AI Agent SDK tools, demonstrating how to build a chatbot app that allows users to interact with blockchain services with natural language.

This example contains both the **AI-powered chatbot backend** (Flask server) and the **React frontend** (Vite app) for interacting with the chatbot.
