# Conversation API & Websocket

## Overview

The API and Websocket enable you to extend your conversational experiences by building custom conversational interfaces for your AiseraGPT applications. Your application server takes care of the following:

* Decoration 
* Intent Extraction (NLP and NLU) 
* Slot filling 
* Context Management 
* Out-of-band Notifications 
* Rendering facilitation (in the case of Adaptive Cards)

{% hint style="info" %}
Conversation API and Websocket responses cannot be directly rendered. Instead, the semantic responses can be used to build custom conversational experiences.
