A Deep Domain Conversational AI Platform for Building Industrial-Grade Assistants

The most popular PHP framework for multi-channel chatbot development and orchestration.
BotMan is the leading open-source PHP framework specifically designed to simplify the task of developing innovative chatbots across multiple messaging platforms. In the 2026 landscape, BotMan serves as a critical bridge for PHP-heavy enterprise architectures, allowing developers to integrate modern Large Language Models (LLMs) with legacy business logic. It features a driver-based architecture that abstracts the complexities of individual messaging APIs (like Slack, Telegram, and WhatsApp), providing a unified syntax for message handling. Its core strength lies in its middleware capabilities and 'Conversations' feature, which allows for complex, multi-step state management without the overhead of external state machines. BotMan is framework-agnostic but provides deep integration with Laravel via BotMan Studio, making it the go-to choice for developers seeking to deploy scalable, cross-platform conversational interfaces while maintaining full control over data sovereignty and hosting environments.
Abstracts various messaging API payloads into a unified 'IncomingMessage' object.
