Back in May, at Google I/O, we announced that we were sponsoring part of the Google Developer Challenge, and offering you the chance to win $5000!

We have already lots of people signing up to build Actions, but I’m incredibly excited to tell you about the latest improvement, which makes it even easier to get started.

Converse.AI is the only third party bot platform now officially integrated directly into the Actions by Google Console, allowing you to automatically setup an account with Converse, and configure the integration in just one click!

It couldn’t be easier. In fact, we are so proud of our platform and how easy it is to integrate, we thought we would put it to the test and build the quickest bot of our own. Check out our video here, where we build a ‘hello world’ bot from scratch, including deploying it to a Google Home, in under 2 minutes!

The contest is open to developers from all parts the world and will run until the end of August, Google’s conversational experts will be judging the entries, and we will announce the winner by the end of the year.

So what are you waiting for?? Get building the ultimate Actions by Google and Converse.AI bot and see if you could be the winner!
