Dynamically switching communications to text interactions

1. A method for dynamically switching communications to text interactions, the method comprising:

receiving a phone call from a caller through a voice call medium;

determining an identity of the caller by accessing a plurality of databases comprising at least a social media feed associated with the caller;

predicting an interaction preference based on the identity of the caller;

determining a resource cost, wherein the resource cost corresponds to cost for handling the phone call, by evaluating a plurality of interaction factors comprising at least

a voice queue wait time associated with the phone call;

establishing a threshold of an upper limit for the amount of time the caller should wait based on the interaction preference and the resource cost associated with the phone call;

determining whether the voice queue wait time exceeds the threshold;

assigning the phone call to a speech-to-text communication channel in response to determining that the estimated voice queue wait time exceeds the threshold;

establishing a speech-to-text interaction between the caller and an agent associated with the speech-to-text communication channel;

synthesizing speech from a text response by the agent and transmitting the synthesized speech to the caller;

re-determining the resource cost associated with the speech-to-text interaction between the agent and the caller during the course of the speech-to-text interaction by re-evaluating the plurality of interaction factors comprising at least additional information obtained during the call; and

dynamically re-routing the speech-to-text interaction to a voice call interaction communication channel to convert the speech-to-text interaction into a voice interaction based on the re-determined resource cost.

2. A method for dynamically switching communications to text interactions, the method comprising:

receiving an incoming communication from a communicator through a video interaction medium;

determining an identity of the communicator by accessing a plurality of databases comprising at least a social media feed associated with the communicator;

predicting an interaction preference based on the identity of the communicator;

determining a resource cost, wherein the resource cost corresponds to cost for handing the incoming communication, by evaluating a plurality of interaction factors comprising at least

a video queue wait time associated with the incoming communication;

establishing a threshold of an upper limit for the amount of time the communicator should wait based on the interaction preference and the resource cost associated with the incoming communication;

determining whether the video queue wait time exceeds the threshold;

assigning the incoming communication to a speech-to-text communication channel in response to determining that the estimated video queue wait time exceeds the threshold;

establishing a speech-to-text interaction between the communicator and an agent associated with the speech-to-text communication channel;

synthesizing speech from a text response by the agent and transmitting the synthesized speech to the communicator;

re-determining the resource cost associated with the speech-to-text interaction between the agent and the communicator during the course of the speech-to-text interaction by re-evaluating the plurality of interaction factors comprising at least additional information obtained during incoming communication; and

dynamically re-routing the speech-to-text interaction to a video interaction communication channel to convert the speech-to-text interaction into a video interaction based on the re-determined resource cost.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the video queue wait time comprises a first wait time and further comprising:

determining a second wait time associated with a second queue;

receiving an updated resource cost associated with the incoming communication; and

wherein the routing the incoming communication to the second queue is based at least in part on the updated resource cost.

4. A method for dynamically switching communications between different interaction types, the method comprising:

receiving an incoming communication from a communicator through an original interaction medium;

determining an identity of the communicator by accessing a plurality of databases comprising at least a social media feed associated with the communicator;

predicting an interaction preference based on the identity of the communicator;

determining a resource cost, wherein the resource cost corresponds to cost for handing the incoming communication, by evaluating a plurality of interaction factors comprising at least an first queue wait time associated with the incoming communication;

establishing a threshold of an upper limit for the amount of time the communicator should wait based on the interaction preference and the resource cost associated with the incoming communication;

determining whether the first queue wait time exceeds the threshold;

assigning the incoming communication to a first communication channel wherein the estimated first queue wait time exceeds the threshold, the first communication channel corresponding to an interaction medium different from the original interaction medium;

re-determining the resource cost associated with the communication between the communicator via the first communication channel by re-evaluating the plurality of interaction factors comprising at least additional information obtained during the communication; and

dynamically re-routing the communication from the first communication channel to a second communication channel corresponding to the original interaction medium based on the re-determined resource cost.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the interaction factor comprises a quality of service associated with the incoming communication and further comprising the steps of:

generating a quality of service rating associated with the incoming communication;

determining the quality of service rating does not exceed a predetermined threshold; and

wherein routing the incoming communication to a speech-to-text queue is further based on quality of service rating.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the interaction factor comprises a language associated with the incoming communication and the method further comprises the steps of:

determining the language associated with the incoming communication; and

wherein the assigning the incoming communication to the first communication channel is further based on the language associated with the incoming communication.

7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the interaction factors further comprise a user preference and the method further comprises the step of:

determining specific content associated with incoming communication.

8. The method of claim 4 , wherein the assigning interaction type to the incoming communication comprises updating metadata associated with the incoming communication.
