CrawlBot AI vs. Landbot Conversational Forms
Landbot shines at building conversational forms and flows. CrawlBot focuses on retrieval-augmented answers with citations, adaptive thresholds, and enterprise-grade embeds. Here is how they compare and how to pair them.
Comparison
| Dimension | CrawlBot AI | Landbot |
|---|---|---|
| Core focus | Grounded answers with citations | Flow and form building |
| Grounding | Hybrid RAG with refusal policy | Prebuilt flows and knowledge snippets |
| Freshness | IndexNow and incremental recrawl | Manual updates to flows and content |
| Analytics | Per-embed impressions, opens, chats, messages, fallback reasons | Flow performance and drop-off metrics |
| Security | SRI, strict widget CSP, origin checks, SSO, formal threat model | Depends on your embed configuration |
| Multi-tenant | Agency friendly styling and quotas per tenant | Single brand focus |
When CrawlBot fits best
- Visitors ask open-ended questions on marketing, docs, or pricing pages.
- You want cited answers and retrieval transparency to reduce hallucinations.
- Agencies manage multiple brands and need isolated styling, quotas, and analytics.
- Security teams require strict CSP and origin validation for embeds.
When to use Landbot
- Structured flows, surveys, and lead capture are the main goal.
- You need custom branching logic and CRM updates.
- Teams are already trained on Landbot’s visual builder.
Pairing approach
- Add CrawlBot to content-heavy pages for grounded Q&A with citations.
- Keep Landbot on campaign landing pages where form completion matters most.
- Route account or transactional intents from CrawlBot to Landbot flows when structured input is needed.
- Track containment and conversion across both to refine placement and content.
Grounded answers and structured forms serve different intents. Using CrawlBot with Landbot gives visitors clarity while you still capture the data you need.
