Methods and systems are disclosed that facilitate a commercial data platform that enhances the interaction between a dialer and receiver during a voice call by simultaneously delivering and tracking data content that promotes ongoing commerce and interactions between these parties. One such system includes first and second interaction managers on a dialer device and a receiver device that transmit first and second sets of interaction data to a database during a call. A server obtains receiver content data from the database using the receiver identifier, transmits the receiver content data to the dialer device, obtains dialer content data from the database using the dialer identifier, transmits the dialer content data to the receiver device, and stores data from both the first set of ID and the second set of ID in the database in association with both the receiver identifier and the dialer identifier.

Provided are an electronic device, a method thereof, and a server. The electronic device includes a display, a communication interface, at least one processor, and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein, upon execution, the memory is configured to store instructions that enable the at least one processor to detect that a call event associated with another electronic device occurs; obtain call-related information associated with the another electronic device; detect at least one piece of information corresponding to a call state with the another electronic device from the obtained call-related information; and control the display to display a screen including the at least one piece of detected information and information indicating the call state with the another electronic device. Other embodiments may be possible.

Methods and apparatus implementing a telephony terminal for connecting a telephone to a data network. In one implementation, a telephony system includes: a phone connection for connecting to a telephone; a network connection for connecting to a network; and a controller connected to said phone connection and to said network connection; wherein said controller provides a phone service for processing information for said phone connection, said controller provides a network service for processing information for said network connection, and said controller provides a network voice service for converting information to and from a network voice format.

A process for real-time data exchange allows for sharing data, including metadata such as user data and phone data, between multiple handsets so that handsets may automatically display such data upon initiation or establishment of a telephone call, and in some arrangements throughout the life of the call. In this way, the need for subsequent data transmissions is reduced or eliminated, making bandwidth usage more efficient and conserving battery power.

A website hosting provider may assist hosting customers with the creation and publication of their websites. The website hosting provider may receive and convert customer service voice communications into customer service text communications. The website hosting provider may organize the customer service text communications in clusters so that all of the customer service text communications in the same cluster are regarding the same topic. The website hosting provider may also assign a score, regarding the effectiveness, and hosting customer variables, regarding the calling hosting customer, to each customer service text communication. When a new, i.e., current hosting customer calls regarding a topic and has similar hosting customer variables, the website hosting provider may determine, based on the past customer service text communications, a set of optimal questions. The current hosting customer may respond to the questions and then receive a recommendation from the website hosting customer regarding creating or publishing their website.

A method and apparatus are provided for presenting multimedia content to a caller and/or a called party in association with a telephone call. Content may be presented pre-ring (before the called party's telephone rings), in-call, and/or post-call. Content presented to a party may be related to another party participating in the call or may be related to a third party (e.g., an advertiser that paid for the ability to have its content presented). Presented content may be actuable, to allow a caller to change the destination of a call, take advantage of an offer presented to him or her, redeem a coupon, schedule or queue a subsequent call, etc. To find a desired destination party, a caller may initiate a manual or automatic search of his or her local contacts (on his telephone) and/or a central or global directory or contact list.

Providing automated progress updates in a contact center including detecting an activity by a resource of the contact center related to a customer interaction occurring via a customer communications channel between the resource and a customer. The activity comprises an interaction between the resource and one or more additional resources associated with the contact center occurring via a second communications channel. In response to detecting the activity by the resource, a notification comprising a progress update related to the customer interaction is automatically generated. The notification is transmitted, via the customer communications channel, to a customer device associated with the customer interaction.

Systems for providing a contact center system detect patterns in the behavior of service agent users and customers having a customer service issue. The system records activity data describing interactions of the users with a virtualized contact center and with each other; the activity data is aggregated and then analyzed (e.g., using a machine learning engine) to measure one or more metrics that define a behavior pattern. The analysis identifies an intent expressed by customers having a common issue, and further identifies attributes of the intent as well as the actions taken by the service agents in response to the intent. The system uses the analysis to generate a workflow of potential interactions that resolve the issue. The system automates the workflow by generating and deploying a computerized service agent configured to interact with customers of a contact center and execute the workflow.

A system is provided that includes a first network interface for a first network type and a second network interface for a second network type that is different from the first network type. The system also includes at least one processor configured to cause the system to perform operations. The operations may include obtaining, from the first network interface, audio from a communication session with a remote device established over the first network and obtaining an indication of a communication device available to participate in the communication session and direct audio obtained from the communication session to a remote transcription system. The operations may also include directing the audio to the second network interface for transmission to the communication device, obtaining transcript data from the remote transcription system based on the audio, and directing the transcript data to the second network interface for transmission to the communication device.

Some implementations provide a feature recommendation system that receives sequences from user sessions with applications, where each sequence is of features of the applications in an order the features were used by a user. The sequences are applied to a feature embedding model that learns semantic similarities between the features based on occurrences of the features in the sequences in a same user session. A request is received for a feature recommendation that identifies a feature of an application used by a given user in a user session. A recommended feature for the feature recommendation is determined from a set of the semantic similarities that are between the identified feature and others of the features. The feature recommendation is presented on a user device associated with the given user.
