  • Publication number: 20210274044
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automated telephone host system interaction. A system can include one or more client applications executable by respective communication devices and a server in communication with the respective communication devices. The system can store user information for a user and receive, from the user, requests associated with a service provider. Responsive to the requests, the system can cause initiation of a call center call to a call center associated with the service provider, automatically navigate a call handling system of the call center, monitor a held call center call, and detect when a live agent answers the call. Responsive to detecting the live agent, the system can initiate a call to the user device and bridge the calls such that the user can speak to the live agent.

  • Patent number: 10498904
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automated telephone host system interaction. A system can include one or more client applications executable by respective communication devices and a server in communication with the respective communication devices. The system can store caller information for a caller and receive, from the caller, requests associated with a service provider. Responsive to the requests, the system can cause initiation of a call center call to a call center associated with the service provider, automatically navigate a call handling system of the call center, monitor a held call center call, and detect when a live agent answers the call. A data center remote from the communication devices can at least partially control call handling at the communication devices.

  • Patent number: 10242669
    Abstract: A method and process for using subsequent analysis of an audio recording to improve the punctuation of a transcribed audio file that has been processed by a transcription (speech to text) service or process. Features are disclosed for assessing audio data and transcription information to enhance the punctuation or capitalization of the words detected therein. The timing information received from a service transcribing the audio may be compared with audio analysis of the original audio data to identify words likely to be associated with punctuation or capitalization. The features generate a transcript with improved semantic and syntactic accuracy over the transcript received from the transcription service.
