chatbot, hybrid conversational, usability, FAQ, UEQ

FAQ is an important part of a system because it is used to make it easier for users to solve problems faced by users. Some FAQ
systems have even started using Chatbot technology to make it easier for users. Chatbots have been widely used as a medium
for services in almost all fields. Starting from marketing, service systems, education, health, culture and entertainment. Various
types of chatbots have sprung up, ranging from text-based like short messaging applications to voice-based ones. However,
not all forms of chatbot designs have been successfully implemented in the FAQ system. Adjustments need to be made, especially
considering the persona of the user. This research provides a solution by implementing a hybrid conversational design. Hybrid
conversation design is accomplished by incorporating text, voice, and buttons into the chatbot interface. Conversation activities
with this hybrid interface provide keywords that users may search for in the form of buttons. The hybrid design of the FAQ
Chatbot is proven to be able to improve user usability compared to full text chatbots and full text FAQs. The increase in user
usability is measured using UEQ, the results of which show an increase in usability from all existing aspects. However, the
implementation of this hybrid design also has the consequence that the conversation management system must have structured
initial information.
