Abstract

Implementations disclosed herein optimize performance of phone calls where users interact with interactive voice response (IVR) systems. By utilizing dynamic wait time statistics and intelligent call management techniques, these implementations minimize wait times and reduce telephone network traffic. Call optimization systems can analyze real-time data to provide users with real-time wait time information to inform users decision-making prior to placing a call or at the time of placing a call. Implementations can present dynamic wait time statistics that consider personalized user experiences to provide more accurate information about any particular IVR navigation path that a user can select from. Selection and execution of a suggested IVR path can result in additional wait time data that can be utilized for refining wait time statistics for users.
