Patent number: 9848078Abstract: Automatic determination of caller identification information and encoding of such information in outgoing data requests, such a API calls to a call management component, are disclosed herein. The caller identification information may be determined by analyzing information associated with a call target to determine if the target has a custom outbound telephone number assigned, was contacted through a specific campaign, has local geographic data, is being called from a specific entity, or is being made from a call originator with a specific outbound number set. The system may execute machine learning on previous calling data in order to update caller identification selection models used for other outgoing calls.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2016Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: Velocify, Inc.Inventors: Manoj Goyal, Shze Chew Lee, Nicholas Hedges

Publication number: 20170237859Abstract: A system for scoring and distributing sales leads. A scoring model may score sales leads based on attributes of the leads and the likelihood of the lead resulting in a desired outcome. The scoring model may be updated based on new information about the outcome of sales leads, or in response to a determination that the scoring model is not providing adequate accuracy. A distribution module may distribute sales leads to sales entities. The entities may be assigned to tiers which determine the manner in which leads are distributed. The assignment of entities to tiers may be updated based on changes in the attributes of the sales entities.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2016Publication date: August 17, 2017Inventor: Nicholas Hedges
