Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to user access to an application service that references user account information and previous user action information. One example method may include receiving, via a receiver device, user input information to access an application, the user input information including at least one action request and authorizing the user to access the application. The method may also include storing the user input information as part of a contextual history information record in a database memory, generating a response message to the selected at least one action request based on the contextual history information, and forwarding the response message to the user via a transmitter device.

Claims (42)

1. A method, comprising:

receiving, via a receiver device, user input information to access an application, the user input information including at least one action request provided by a user device;

storing the user input information as part of a contextual history information in a database memory, the contextual history information identifying a first session and comprising selection events occurring during the first session and the at least one action request made during the first session;

creating a second session responsive to receiving a user inquiry;

generating a response message to a selection of the at least one action request based on the contextual history information and the user inquiry;

forwarding the response message to the user device via a transmitter device via the second session; and

generating at least one additional response based on a third party application, the at least one additional response being based on at least a portion of the contextual history information; and

wherein in the at least one additional response is a reminder that is derived from previous user transactions and the stored contextual history information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user input information comprises at least one of a username, password, user preference and query.

3. The method of claim 1 , comprising retrieving the contextual history information of the first session.

4. The method of claim 1 , comprising applying the contextual history information to the second session to resume a previous context of the first session.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one additional response is a predictive response that is generated to offer the user a service independent of the user requesting the service, the service being derived from the contextual history information.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the response message comprises information requested by the user and responsive to the action request.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the action request is a request to receive at least one of bill information, account information, order video content and live agent access.

8. An apparatus, comprising:

a receiver configured to receive user input information to access an application, the user input information including at least one action request provided by a user device; and

a processor configured to:

store the user input information as part of a contextual history information in a database memory, wherein the contextual history information identifies a first session and comprises selection events which occur in the first session and the at least one action request made in the first session;

create a second session responsive to a receipt of a user inquiry;

generate a response message to a selection of the at least one action request based on the contextual history information and the user inquiry; and

a transmitter configured to forward the response message to the user device via the second session;

wherein the processor is further configured to generate at least one additional response based on a third party application, the at least one additional response being based on at least a portion of the contextual history information; and

wherein the at least one additional response is a reminder that is derived from previous user transactions and the stored contextual history information.

9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the user input information comprises at least one of a username, password, user preference and query.

10. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to retrieve the contextual history information of the first session.

11. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to apply the contextual history information to the second session to resume a previous context of the first session.

12. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the at least one additional response is a predictive response that is generated to offer the user a service independent of the user that requests the service, the service being derived from the contextual history information.

13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the response message comprises information requested by the user and responsive to the action request.

14. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the action request is a request to receive at least one of bill information, account information, order video content, and live agent access.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform:

receiving, via a receiver device, user input information to access an application, the user input information including at least one action request provided by a user device;

storing the user input information as part of a contextual history information in a database memory, the contextual history information identifying a first session and comprising selection events occurring during the first session and the at least one action request made during the first session;

creating a second session responsive to receiving a user inquiry;

generating a response message to a selection of the at least one action request based on the contextual history information and the user inquiry;

forwarding the response message to the user device via a transmitter device via the second session; and

generating at least one additional response based on a third party application, the at least one additional response being based on at least a portion of the contextual history information,

wherein in the at least one additional response is a reminder that is derived from previous user transactions and the stored contextual history information.

16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the user input information comprises at least one of a username, password, user preference and query.

17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to store instructions that when executed cause the processor to perform retrieving the contextual history information of the first session.

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to store instructions that when executed cause the processor to perform applying the contextual history information to the second session to resume a previous context of the first session.

19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the at least one additional response is a predictive response that is generated to offer the user a service independent of the user requesting the service, the service being derived from the contextual history information.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the response message comprises information requested by the user and responsive to the action request.
