Abstract

Example embodiments provide a system and method for dynamically providing a mute alert on a communication device. The system receives an audio signal during a communication session. Using one or more hardware processors of the system, the audio signal is analyzed to detect speech. The system determines whether the detected speech transgresses a predetermined threshold. In response to determining that the communication device is in a mute mode and the detected speech transgresses the predetermined threshold, the system provides an alert, via the communication device, notifying the user that the communication device is in the mute mode.
