Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for the determination of optimal communication scheduling. Send Time Optimization (STO) uses machine learning (ML) to recommend a personalized send time based on a recipient's past engagement patterns. The purpose of the ML model is to learn patterns in the data automatically and use the patterns to make personalized predictions for each recipient. The send time recommended by the model is the time at which the model believes the recipient will be most likely to engage with the message, such as clicking or opening, and use of the send time mode is expected to increase engagement from recipients. Additional customizations include communication-frequency optimization, communication-channel selection, and engagement-scoring model.

Abstract: A method for a communication platform includes receiving configuration data associated with an account, the configuration data identifying a plurality of communication channels to provide messages to a plurality of communication endpoints. The method also includes receiving a request associated with the account to transmit messages to a set of communication endpoints of the plurality of communication endpoints, and determining, based at least in part on the configuration data, a message payload, the set of communication endpoints, and a set of communication channel identifiers corresponding to the set of communication endpoints. The method further includes transmitting the messages to communication endpoints in the set of communication endpoints, each message including the message payload and being transmitted to a respective communication endpoint using a communication channel identified by a communication channel identifier corresponding to the respective communication endpoint.

Abstract: A first request to create a content resource from a client device associated with a client account of the SaaS platform is received via a first application programming interface (API) call. The first request specifies message content for messages to be sent via multiple communication channels, identifies the message content in a first format, and format is translatable to multiple second formats that each correspond to one of the communication channels. The content resource received via the first API call is stored, at the SaaS platform. An identifier of the content resource is provided to the client device associated with the client account via a first API response.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for standard compliant collection of sensitive data during a communication session. A standard compliant data collection system is used to provide the standard compliant collection of sensitive data. For example, in response to receiving an indication that a user is to provide sensitive data during an active communication session between the user and an agent, a standard compliant data collection mode is invoked. As a result, communication within the active communication session is routed between the user and the standard compliant data collection system via a secure connection, during which sensitive data is collected in a standard compliant manner. Once collection of the user's sensitive data has been completed, the standard compliant data collection mode is ended, and communication within the active communication session is routed between the user and the agent.

Abstract: A multi-tenant media processing platform system and method. At least a first media analysis service of a plurality of media analysis services is activated for at least a portion of an active communication session of an entity in the platform system. The first activated media analysis service performs a first media analysis on media of the active communication session that is collected by the platform system. The first activated media analysis service performs the first media analysis on the collected media while the communication session is active to generate a first media analysis result. During the active communication session, at least one media analysis result is applied.

Abstract: A core provider predicts that a device will enter an area of poor coverage by a wireless network provider. Based on the prediction, one or more rules are applied to prioritize data traffic to be received prior to entering the area of poor coverage. The prediction that the device will enter the area of poor coverage may be based on cell coverage data received from the wireless network provider, connection quality data received from other devices, a location of the device, a speed of the device, a direction of the device, or any suitable combination thereof. A route of the device may be changed to avoid or minimize an amount of time in the area of poor coverage. As another alternative, the device may be switched from the wireless network provider to another wireless network with better coverage.
