Abstract

Method for real-time automated call summarization comprises determining an issue of a caller based on at least one of a call transcript, an extracted intent from the call transcript, or a slot of the intent. Based on the issue, a resolution is determined, and further an action item to implement the resolution is determined. The determined resolution and the action item are displayed in a graphical user interface (GUI).

Claims (34)

1. A call summarization apparatus for automated real-time summarization of a call between a customer and an agent while the call is active, the apparatus comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory communicably coupled to the processor, the memory comprising computer-executable instructions, which when executed using the at least one processor, implements a method comprising:

determining, on the call summarization apparatus, an issue of a customer based on at least one of a call transcript, an intent extracted from the call transcript, or a slot of the intent extracted from the call transcript,

determining, on the call summarization apparatus, from the call transcript, a resolution provided by an agent to the customer,

determining, on the call summarization apparatus, from the call transcript, an action item identified by the agent to implement the resolution, and

displaying a summary comprising the resolution, the action item, and at least one of the issue, the intent, or the slot in a graphical user interface (GUI) on a device accessible to the agent.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving, on a call summarization apparatus, audio data of the call;

transcribing, on the call summarization apparatus, the audio data to text, immediately upon receipt of the audio data.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises determining, from the call transcript, a sentiment, wherein the sentiment is one of positive, neutral or negative.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the summary further comprises the sentiment.

5. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the method further comprises:

determining, based on the call transcript, non-compliance with compliance rules; and

generating an alert if non-compliance determined,

wherein the summary further comprises the non-compliance.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the summary is editable in the GUI.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises, automatically sending the summary, from the call summarization apparatus, to a supervisor of the agent.

8. A method for real-time automated summarization of a call between a customer and an agent while the call is active, the method comprising:

determining, on a call summarization apparatus, an issue of a customer based on at least one of a call transcript, an intent extracted from the call transcript, or a slot of the intent extracted from the call transcript;

determining, on the call summarization apparatus, from the call transcript, a resolution provided by an agent to the customer;

determining, on the call summarization apparatus, from the call transcript, an action item identified by the agent to implement the resolution; and

displaying a summary comprising the resolution, the action item, and at least one of the issue, the intent, or the slot in a graphical user interface (GUI) on a device accessible to the agent.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving, on a call summarization apparatus, audio data of the call;

transcribing, on the call summarization apparatus, the audio data to text, immediately upon receipt of the audio data.

10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising determining, from the call transcript, a sentiment, wherein the sentiment is one of positive, neutral or negative.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the summary further comprises the sentiment.

12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining, based on the call transcript, non-compliance with compliance rules; and

generating an alert if non-compliance determined,

wherein the summary further comprises the non-compliance.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the summary is editable in the GUI.

14. The method of claim 8 , further comprising, automatically sending the summary, from the call summarization apparatus, to a supervisor of the agent.
