This chatbot solves the basic form filling aspect of a chat flow. By collecting the information from the user, an API call can be made to the rainmaker backend services to fulfill what the user wants to do. It uses the concept of StateCharts (similar to State Machines) to maintain the state of the user in a chat flow and store the information provided by the user.
