Editorial Verdict
AI-researched, not hands-on testedAn intuitive drag-and-drop builder and a genuinely free-forever plan make BotPenguin an easy entry point for small businesses building their first chatbot. Complex use cases hit real customization limits fast, several advanced features sit behind paid plans, and updates have reportedly disrupted existing bot functionality.
