A system is disclosed that assists contact center agents with servicing customer enquiries. A wireless caller with an enquiry calls a contact center and is prompted to leave a voice message and accept a text callback as a response. The voice message is processed by a speech analytics system that extracts certain keywords in the voice message and develops a transcript as well. Upon selecting an available agent to provide the response, the keywords and transcript are presented to the agent along with a draft text response, formulated by the system using the identified keywords. Additional resources may be provided as necessary to the agent, who can also review the original audio recording. Upon reviewing and potentially editing the text response, the agent causes the text to be sent to the wireless caller, which may be sent as an SMS text, or in some other form.

Agent assisting system for processing customer enquiries in a contact center

Various embodiments of the invention provide a callback text message to a party who has placed an inbound call received by a contact center. Specifically, the inbound call is received by the contact center and placed into a queue to wait for an available agent. At this point, a condition is detected such as the call remaining in the queue for at least a minimum amount of time, the call expected to remain in the queue for at least a minimum amount of time, and/or the call becoming disconnected with the contact center. Accordingly, one or more parameters associated with inbound calls received by the contact center are monitored in particular embodiments and after the condition is detected and upon the one or more parameters reaching threshold values, a text message is sent to the party recommending to the party to place a subsequent inbound call to the contact center.

Sending callback text messages from a contact center

Various embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, and computer-program products for setting up a callback for a party placed on hold. In particular embodiments, speech analytics is used to listen in on a party once the party has been placed on hold for a keyword spoken by the party indicating the party would like to receive a callback. In response to detecting the keyword spoken by the party, a notification is sent to a component such as an IVR and in turn, the IVR interacts with the party to obtain information from the party with respect to placing a callback to the party. Accordingly, this information is recorded so that a callback can be placed to the party at a later time by some type of call handler component such as, for example, a dialer or PBX.
