Hey aronvox, I tried out the chat, its a very interesting project. Could you spare some time to talk about it? Would it possible to communicate over IM?

Right now it works on top of Whatsapp, but we are adding other messengers shortly. Capabilities right now are translating, checking wikipedia, latest cricket scores, check indian railways pnr status and some fun stuff like jokes. We are essentially working towards the conversation + answering grey area questions category.

That suggest feature is not working. PNR not working. I couldn't google anything. I couldn't figure out how to give a feedback. Wiki works well though.
Was wondering if this is first of its kind or we already have mature AI bots for whatsapp? I have used bots on hike and nimbuzz. They are good. You can take a clue from these.

Don't misinterpret this comment (or my previous comment) as hostile, but handing out a phone number online - without any explanation or accountability - makes you susceptible to spammers.
What is the purpose of Aaahit?
You say you're working with AI - what is the primary purpose of Aaahit (discussion, task-routing, scheduling, etc.)?

@Kidlogic: No offense taken. I agree it does look a bit random, but we are working on the hypothesis that we will never need a website for this. A detailed explanation is something I missed, apologies for that.
Well broadly the purpose of Aaahit is to be your smartest phonebook contact who you can ask anything. This includes eventually having a discussion on grey area topics to finding information quickly. Right now it helps in translations, wiki'ing stuff, getting the latest cricket scores or checking your train reservation status ( for India only ).
