@ShipEngineBot

A Twitter bot that answers natural language queries about shipping packages

@ShipEngineBot is a Twitter bot that's written in Node.js. It uses ShipEngine's shipping rates API, Yelp's business search API, and Twitter's stream API to answer natural language questions about shipping packages.

A few examples

These are the kinds of questions that you can ask @ShipEngineBot:

Hey @ShipEngineBot, I need to send 20 pounds of gummy bears from Austin to Portland. What'll that cost me?

@ShipEngineBot, How much does it cost to send a 4oz letter from New Jersey to Paris?

I wonder if @ShipEngineBot can help me ship 5kg of potato chips to 78702 from 90210

@ShipEngineBot Can you help me send a package from Denver to Orlando? It weighs 4 pounds.
