Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a customer interaction management system that comprises a memory that stores customer profile data and customer interaction data; a voice response input that receives a voice pattern from a customer; and a computer processor, coupled to the memory and the voice response input, programmed to: retrieve customer voice data from a current customer interaction via a voice channel; retrieve data from one or more other interactions via one or more other channels; compare customer voice data to a customer baseline, where the customer baseline is developed from one or more prior customer interactions; generate, using a speech analytics engine, a customer score that indicates customer sentiment based on the customer voice data and data from one or more other interactions; during the current customer interaction, update the customer score based on customer progress data; and develop one or more actions, in response to the customer score.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 .- 20 . (canceled) 21 . A customer interaction management system comprising: a memory that stores customer profile data and customer interaction data; a voice response input that receives a voice pattern from a customer; and a computer processor, coupled to the memory and the voice response input, programmed to: retrieve customer voice data from a current customer interaction via a voice channel, the current customer interaction comprises an interactive voice response (IVR) process; retrieve data from one or more other interactions via one or more other channels relating to account activity on the customer account and transaction activity with one or more merchants; compare the customer voice data to a customer baseline, where the customer baseline is developed from one or more prior customer voice interactions; calculate, using a speech analytics engine, a customer score that indicates customer sentiment based on the customer voice data and the data from one or more other interactions; during the current customer interaction, update the customer score based on customer progress data; and develop one or more actions, in response to the customer score. 22 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the one or more other interactions comprise online channels including web, chat, email and SMS. 23 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the one or more other interactions comprise one or more touch points. 24 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the customer score is based on the customer voice data being a predetermined threshold above the customer baseline. 25 . The system of claim 21 , wherein data from the one or more other interactions is analyzed by a real-time text analytics processor to update the customer score. 26 . The system of claim 21 , wherein data from the one or more other interactions comprises online search terms and results. 27 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the one or more actions comprises involving a supervisor to participate in the customer interaction. 28 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the one or more actions comprises shortening a IVR session. 29 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the one or more actions comprises performing predictive analytics based on the customer interaction data. 30 . The system of claim 21 , wherein the customer is routed to an appropriate agent based on the customer score. 31 . A customer interaction management method, the method comprising the steps of: retrieving, using a voice response input, customer voice data from a current customer interaction via a voice channel, the current customer interaction comprises an interactive voice response (IVR) process; retrieving data from one or more other interactions via one or more other channels relating to account activity on the customer account and transaction activity with one or more merchants; comparing, using a computer processor, the customer voice data to a customer baseline, where the customer baseline is developed from one or more prior customer voice interactions; calculating, using a speech analytics engine, a customer score that indicates customer sentiment based on the customer voice data and the data from one or more other interactions; during the current customer interaction, updating the customer score based on customer progress data; and providing one or more actions, in response to the customer score. 32 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the one or more other interactions comprise online channels including web, chat, email and SMS. 33 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the one or more other interactions comprise one or more touch points. 34 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the customer score is based on the customer voice data being a predetermined threshold above the customer baseline. 35 . The method of claim 31 , wherein data from the one or more other interactions is analyzed by a real-time text analytics processor to update the customer score. 36 . The method of claim 31 , wherein data from the one or more other interactions comprises online search terms and results. 37 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the one or more actions comprises involving a supervisor to participate in the customer interaction. 38 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the one or more actions comprises shortening a IVR session. 39 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the one or more actions comprises performing predictive analytics based on the customer interaction data. 40 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the customer is routed to an appropriate agent based on the customer score.
