Challenge

Standup comedy show information in Taiwan is scattered among various ticketing systems and social media. As such, it is difficult to find and buy tickets unless you're an avid follower.

Solution

• Built a LINE Chatbot that recommends standup comedies according to user input.

• Crawled data from ticketing websites, Accupass and KKTIX, into Google Sheets and deployed using LINE Messaging API SDK.

Results

• The LINE Chatbot named Comedy SoShow (喜劇搜秀) can recommend comedy shows according to user input. For example, if you put "July, Tainan" then Comedy Soshow will reply with the shows in Tainan city in July.

• Limitations: if the user input does not follow the format of "city, month" then Comedy Soshow will respond with a popular headliner.
