In this paper, we show how a Portuguese BERT model can be combined with structured data in order to deploy a chatbot based on a finite state machine to create a conversational AI system that helps a real-estate company to predict its client's contact motivation. The model achieves human level results in a dataset that contains 235 unbalanced labels. Then, we also show its benefits considering the business impact comparing it against classical NLP methods.
