Patent number: 12651595Abstract: Verbal language analysis is provided to users. The user enrolls or subscribes for verbal language analysis or analytics. The user carries out or conducts a conversation with a third party. An intelligence device associated with the user records the conversation. The intelligence device performs verbal language analysis on the conversation. The verbal language analysis generates individual metrics for verbal factors of energy, word count, inflection, tone (e.g. pitch and sentiment), rate, and/or the like. A verbal intelligence index is determined from the individual metrics using aggregation, averaging, weighted averaging, and/or the like. An interface component generates views to display to the user for review of the conversation to facilitate better verbal performance during current and in future conversations.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2023Date of Patent: June 9, 2026Assignee: VRBL LLCInventors: Spencer Neil Pisczak, Chandler Emerson Pisczak, James Buery Stevenson, Philip John Pisczak

Patent number: 12556634Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to receiving a user phone call and triggering user interactions via an alternative channel in response to the user phone call. Users may call an account service provider with issues related to a user account. To service such a call, the account service provider may prompt the user for information. This information can be analyzed to determine whether the conditions for the user's call are aligned with a shift to a more efficient alternative channel. For example, a guided user workflow via a webpage, application, chat agent, etc. may represent a more efficient deployment of organizational resources. When such conditions are aligned, the account service provider may trigger a selected user interaction workflow for the user call via an alternative channel. The user interaction workflow can comprise a guided workflow that is configured to resolve the user's issue related to the call.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2023Date of Patent: February 17, 2026Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Oscar Guerra, Jennifer Hunt Erickson, Faith Catherine Platz, Jeorge Luis Fabre, Noe Alberto Martinez
