Publication number: 20210264365Abstract: A customer interaction architecture includes a customer interaction diagram and interaction specifics. Stakeholders utilize the customer interaction architecture to create customer interaction diagrams describing business and technological components of a customer need. Each step and component in the customer interaction diagram can include one or more drill down diagrams that include additional details. Some drill-down diagrams can show the interaction and relationship between system components. The customer interaction architecture can additionally highlight each step in the customer interaction diagram and debug the diagram for missing or incomplete steps or elements. Various business, technical, and miscellaneous notes and requirements can also be added to the customer interaction diagram and the drill-down diagrams.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2015Publication date: August 26, 2021Inventors: Dennis Emmanuel Montenegro, Michael Dodds

Patent number: 10582157Abstract: Systems, methods and computer readable media for live interactions in persistent conversations are described. In some implementations, a method can include receiving a communication message sent from a first user to a second user, wherein the communication message includes initiation of a live interaction. The method can also include generating a live interaction user interface element for display as part of a persistent conversation interface. The method can further include storing a representation of the live interaction in a conversation content section of a persistent conversation object when the live interaction ends. The method can include updating conversation state information of the persistent conversation object to reflect the receiving of the communication message and the storing of the representation.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Kathryn Chapman Cushing, Benjamin David Eidelson, Randall Sarafa, Mayur Kamat, Param Reddappagari, Shrikrishna Vijaykumar Borde, Michael Dodd, Richard Fulcher, Gülay Birand, Ivan Bertona
