Have you visited the Inleo thread lately? A new development has been released on the platform, and this time it's something that the majority of Hive users will find incredibly useful in their daily engagement. Imagine this: you're in the middle of writing, and suddenly you are struck on some important information you wanted to include. Normally, you would have to pause everything, open a new tab, and head to Google, a real momentum killer, right? Well, that's where Rafiki comes in. With just one prompt, Rafiki delivers the information you need without ever leaving the Hive platform.
What is Rafiki?
Rafiki is the exciting new Inleo bot that's currently trending on the platform's thread system. Think of it as your personal Hive assistant, ready to help you access any information you need about both Hive and the Inleo platform. The bot operates through a simple hashtag system - #askleo - and has been specifically trained to understand the ins and outs of Inleo and the broader Hive ecosystem.
But here's what makes Rafiki really special, it's not just limited to Hive-related information. There's a more extensive database of questions that the bot can answer, so users can ask for almost anything and get an answer in 20 seconds. it 's great for first-time users of Hive who may get overwhelmed by all the terminology and features specific to the platform. With Rafiki, they have a friendly guide to help them navigate their journey.
The best part is that Rafiki is completely free for everyone to use. Just add the hashtag #askleo to your question, and boom, you get your answer right away.
Using Rafiki
The process to post your question on the Inleo thread is as simple as a prompt. #askleo hashtag is currently trending most on the Inleo thread, and quite possibly due to Rafiki queries. Remember that Rafiki doesn't reply to questions posted without the hashtag #askleo, so type the hashtag and include your question and wait for your answer to show up in the thread comment section.
Currently, Rafiki's home is on the Inleo thread, where users are already making the most of its capabilities. While it would be fantastic to see this kind of functionality expanded to other Hive platforms like Snap on Peakd or Waves on Ecency, Rafiki's current implementation is still accessible to all Hive users. Anyone can hop over to the Inleo thread, ask their question with #askleo, and get the information they need.
A Work in Progress
It's worth noting that Rafiki is still in its early days. Like any new technology, it might not always get everything exactly right or provide responses exactly as you would expect. The bot needs more data to enhance its database and improve the accuracy of its responses. This improvement process happens naturally as more people interact with Rafiki and provide corrections when needed.
The Bigger Picture
While some might be skeptical about introducing bots to the Hive ecosystem, this is actually a positive step forward that deserves recognition. To stay competitive in today's digital landscape, Web 3 social media platforms need to match or exceed the features offered by their Web 2 counterparts. Just look at Facebook with its Meta chatbot on WhatsApp, or X with its own chatbot, these are the giants of social media, and they are embracing this technology for a reason.
Having Rafiki on Inleo isn't just about adding a cool feature, it's about enhancing user experience and increasing the platform's potential for adoption and user retention. This benefits not just Inleo, but the entire Hive ecosystem.
Rafiki represents an exciting step forward for the Hive platform. While it may still be growing and learning, its presence shows that Hive is serious about providing modern, user-friendly features that can compete with mainstream social media platforms. Whether you are a newcomer looking to learn about Hive or an old user needing quick access to information, Rafiki is there to help.
So next time you are on Hive and need some information, why not give Rafiki a try. Head over to the Inleo thread, use #askleo, and experience firsthand how this helpful bot is making life easier for Hive users in their engagement.
