  • Publication number: 20160261747
    Abstract: What is disclosed is a customer relationship management system to help customer care agents prioritize a response to an incoming message. Historical conversations between customers and agents are retrieved. Each conversation has associated features and an assigned priority. Features are categorized into a plurality of categories. A priority is assigned to each category based on the features and the cumulative priority of all conversations in each category. Thereafter, an incoming message is received from a customer's computing device. Features are extracted from the incoming message. A determination is then made as to which of the categories this incoming message belongs based on this message's features. A priority is then assigned to the incoming message based on a priority assigned to the category which the incoming message belongs. The priority is then displayed for a customer agent so the agent can prioritize his/her response to that customer's incoming message.

  • Publication number: 20150012550
    Abstract: Systems and methods of analyzing message data. An embodiment is a method of analyzing message data including a plurality of messages associated with one or more users. The method is performed using a computing system comprising a computer storage medium and a computer processor. The system parses each message of the plurality of messages to identify a plurality of message segments. The system assigns the message segments to the one or more users. The assignment is based at least in part on a determination of whether each message of the plurality of messages is a reply message. The segments of the message are assigned to a reply user if the message is determined to be a reply message. The system applies a statistical model to the assigned message segments, to determine predicted locations for the users. The system outputs the predicted locations for the users.
