System and method for audible text center subsystem
View Patent ↗A system, method, and computer-readable storage device for sending a spoken message as a text message. The method includes receiving from a subscriber a spoken message and spoken disambiguating information indicating how to deliver the spoken message to a recipient. The method further includes converting the spoken message to text and communicating the text to the recipient address. The method can also include determining a recipient address for the recipient based on spoken disambiguating information.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, from a subscriber, a spoken message to a recipient;
receiving, from the subscriber, spoken disambiguating information indicating how to deliver the spoken message to the recipient;
converting, via a processor, the spoken message to text;
determining a recipient address associated with the recipient based on the spoken disambiguating information; and
communicating the text to the recipient address.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising verifying a subscription status of the subscriber.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
retrieving preferences of the subscriber; and
communicating the text to the recipient address based on the preferences.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the preferences are retrieved from a consolidated network repository.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the spoken message is converted to text via an audible text center subsystem.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising communicating the spoken message to the recipient address.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising updating the recipient address based on an oral command from the subscriber.
8. A system comprising:
a processor; and
a computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a subscriber, a spoken message to a recipient;
receiving, from the subscriber, spoken disambiguating information indicating how to deliver the spoken message to the recipient;
converting the spoken message to text;
determining a recipient address associated with the recipient based on the spoken disambiguating information; and
communicating the text to the recipient address.
9. The system of claim 8 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising verifying a subscription status of the subscriber.
10. The system of claim 8 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
retrieving preferences of the subscriber; and
communicating the text to the recipient address based on the preferences.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the preferences are retrieved from a consolidated network repository.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the spoken message is converted to text via an audible text center subsystem.
13. The system of claim 8 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising communicating the spoken message to the recipient address.
14. The system of claim 8 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising updating the recipient address based on an oral command from the subscriber.
15. A computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored which, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a subscriber, a spoken message to a recipient;
receiving, from the subscriber, spoken disambiguating information indicating how to deliver the spoken message to the recipient;
converting the spoken message to text;
determining a recipient address associated with the recipient based on the spoken disambiguating information; and
communicating the text to the recipient address.
16. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising verifying a subscription status of the subscriber.
17. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
retrieving preferences of the subscriber; and
communicating the text to the recipient address based on the preferences.
18. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the preferences are retrieved from a consolidated network repository.
19. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the spoken message is converted to text via an audible text center subsystem.
20. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , the computer-readable storage medium having additional instructions stored which, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising communicating the spoken message to the recipient address.
