Disclosed is a work process supporting system based on interactive voice and text communication, and more particularly a work process supporting system based on interactive voice and text communication, in which at least one of a voice and a text is selectively applied according to congenital/acquired conditions of an information or service requester, so that a work process for providing information or service can be carried out, thereby freeing from constraints in input/output means for performing the work process for providing the information or the service and carrying out the work process while keeping continuity, reliability and accuracy.

Proactive customer care in a communication system

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, automatically detecting a service issue of a telecommunication system that may impact a customer of a telecommunication service provider of the telecommunication system, predicting, by the processing system, a future customer care interaction by the customer as a result of the service issue, initiating a resolution action of the telecommunication system for the service issue before the customer contacts a customer care agent of the telecommunication service provider, wherein the initiating is responsive to the predicting the future customer care interaction and modifying a component of the telecommunication system to improve efficiency of operation of the telecommunication system by reducing a number of customer care contacts by customers of the telecommunication service provider. Other embodiments are disclosed.

AUTOMATIC NAVIGATION OF AN INTERACTIVE VOICE RESPONSE (IVR) TREE ON BEHALF OF HUMAN USER(S)
20220109753 · 2022-04-07 ·

Implementations are directed to utilizing an assistant to automatically navigate an interactive voice response (IVR) tree to arrive at a target state during an assisted telephone call. The assistant can receive input to initiate the assisted telephone call, identify an entity to engage with, on behalf of the user, and during the assisted telephone call, based on the input, and identify an IVR tree stored in association with the entity. In various implementations, navigation of the IVR tree can be modified based on interaction(s) detected at a client device subsequent to initiating the assisted telephone call. In various implementations, the assisted telephone call can be initiated from a search interface, and the target state can be associated with a given search result. In various implementations, the IVR tree can be dynamic in that only a subset of candidate state(s) of the IVR tree may be available as the target state.

CONTACT CENTER OF CELEBRITIES

Customers can become bored with an interaction with an agent. By providing speech and/or images, of a celebrity disguising the speech, and/or image, of the agent, customers can appear to interact with a particular celebrity. As a result, customers are more likely to stay engaged and have a positive experience. The celebrity, or a particular persona of a celebrity, may be selected from customer preferences and/or a purpose of the call. For example, a movie star's role may have a persona, such as a “heavy,” suitable for collection calls (audio or audio-video), whereas a scientific or technical innovator may be selected for technical support calls.
