I have a Facebook bot and I have connected it with a Facebook page. However to have it publicly available I have to wait the approval from Facebook.
Not a problem if you have to make one single bot, huge problem if you have to do it on scale level (eg: 100+ bots).
Platform as Chatfuel or Content Api allow you to just select the page you own and connect the bot automatically.
In minutes the bot is publicly available, skipping the review phase (apparently) in Facebook.
I didn’t find any info about that on the Facebook developer guide, there is a sort of internal API not available for everyone? If so how can you request access to that?

After you log into your Facebook account, click the + sign to start a new chatbot. Start a new chatbot on Chatfuel. Next, choose a template to edit or create a blank chatbot from scratch. Enter a name for the chatbot in the text box and click the red Create a Chatbot button to create it.
There are lots of free chatbot building tools such as the one I run Chattypeople.com that offer the ability to setup a bot and connect it to facebook. You won't require any coding knowledge, and you can sign up using your Facebook account. Once you've set up a free account you can start creating your chatbot.
Messenger Bot FAQs The pricing for Messenger Bot starts at $4.99 per month. Messenger Bot has a single plan: Messenger Bot Premium at $4.99 per month.
Facebook Messenger bots are published for a page (which is the bot identity) using one or more applications (which defines the webhook where messages are sent). So the application must be reviewed and approved by Facebook. After that, any page can be 'attached' to this application, using the standard Facebook authorization flow in order to get an access token for this page by the approved application.
So Chatfuel and others alreay have their application approved, and now any page can be connected to it.
