  • Patent number: 11973897
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing call center-based automated interface with network switches for Internet service diagnostics and provisioning. In various embodiments, in response to receiving a request by a call center user to access an Internet service customer account, a computing system may access information regarding the Internet service customer account that is stored in a database, may identify a network switch that is configured to provide Internet service to customer premises equipment (“CPE”) disposed at a customer premises associated with the customer, based at least in part on the accessed information, and may autonomously access, from other databases, information associated with the Internet service customer account and with a network profile. The computing system may integrate the accessed information, may generate and present a user interface (“UI”) displaying the accessed information, and may autonomously initiate one or more diagnosis and repair procedures.

  • Patent number: 11936805
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing call center-based automated interface between call center agents and network orchestration systems, in some cases, via application programming interfaces (“APIs”). In various embodiments, an automated services platform may collect, from data sources, data associated with services provided by a service provider. The collected data may be autonomously analyzed to identify any issues with provisioning a service(s) to a customer. If so, one or more automation actions may be autonomously identified to address the determined issue(s). The automated services platform may autonomously send instructions to automation bots to perform the identified one or more automation actions, and may generate and present a UI on a user terminal operated by a user, the UI displaying information regarding at least one of the at least one issue, the affected service(s), the identified one or more automation actions, or the automation bots, and/or the like.

  • Publication number: 20230261944
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing service diagnostics and provisioning via a service action guidance engine (“SAGE”). In various embodiments, SAGE may autonomously analyze data to identify any issues with provisioning one or more first services, among a plurality of services, to a first customer of a service provider. SAGE may autonomously identify one or more first automation actions from a plurality of automation actions to address at least one first issue identified based on the analysis, and may autonomously send one or more first instructions to one or more first automation bots, among a plurality of automation bots, to perform the identified one or more first automation actions. SAGE may also generate and present one or more guidance messages to call center users to guide interaction between customers and the call center users, based on analysis data associated with provisioning of services to the customers.

  • Publication number: 20230034159
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing call center-based automated interface with voice switches for voice service diagnostics and provisioning. In various embodiments, in response to receiving a request by a call center user to access a voice service customer account, a computing system may access information regarding the voice service customer account that is stored in a database, may identify a switch that is configured to control voice service to a customer premises associated with the customer, based at least in part on the accessed information, and may autonomously access, from other databases, information associated with the voice service customer account. The computing system may integrate the accessed information, may generate and present a user interface (“UI”) displaying the accessed information, and may generate and present one or more options within the UI for the call center user to select to change features of the voice service.
