I'm exploring the possibility of adding Amazon Lex to a static website that provides various training paths for technicians seeking certification. The site primarily consists of HTML and CSS, and I'm particularly interested in integrating a bot to handle questions like "What do I need to get certified in x, y, z?". I'm trying to conceptualize the setup while keeping it simple, especially considering that we expect very low traffic. Any advice or experiences with Lex in production would be greatly appreciated!

I haven’t used Lex personally, but I’ve built Alexa apps. Generally speaking, it might not be as effective as a well-structured website, especially for basic inquiries. If you were considering a more advanced bot powered by LLMs, that could be more compelling. However, for the level of info you're looking for, focusing on good web design might be the key. Plus, it’s better for SEO if it's a public site!
You make a great point! Since it isn’t public-facing, I might just need to enhance the website design instead. I’ll think about that!
