Abstract

The invention relates to a virtual banking assistant that provides an overall awareness for a particular customer. The virtual banking assistant system may observe the customer to identify customer intent and context. For example, the virtual banking assistant system may observe the customer's interactions and listen to conversations. The virtual banking assistant may further access customer historical data, e.g., profile data, current account status, spending habits, late/penalties, fraud data, etc. In addition, recent customer activity may be identified.

Claims (36)

1. A system that implements a virtual banking assistant, the system comprising:

a memory that stores and manages customer profile data comprising, historical customer data including current status of one or more customer accounts, spending habits, late penalties, fraud data, and banking habits, and current customer data including online search activity, incomplete transactions, call center experiences, chat logs, and interactions with one or more bank branches;

a recognition interface that identifies a customer based on one or more of at least one physical biometric when the customer enters a banking location and the recognition interface's learning of the customer's habits including a timing of the customer's visits to the banking location;

a network of capture devices comprising at least one image capture device and at least one voice capture device; and

a computer processor, coupled to the recognition interface, the network of capture devices and the memory, configured to:

identify, via the recognition interface, a customer upon the customer's entry into the banking location;

observe, via the network of capture devices, one or more customer interactions in the banking location wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises a conversation between the customer and at least one banking representative in the banking location;

filter, for the conversation between the customer and at least one banking representative, a data stream representing the customer's voice from a data stream representing the at least one banking representative's voice;

retrieve, from the memory, customer profile data corresponding to the identified customer;

identify an intent of the customer based on the filtered data stream representing the customer's voice and the customer profile data corresponding to the identified customer; and

provide one or more actions that address the intent of the customer while the customer is in the banking location.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one physical biometric comprises face recognition.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer processor is further configured to:

retrieve customer profile data using the customer identifier to provide context to a current customer interaction at the branch location.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the customer profile data comprises data relating to a recent interaction.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises an interaction with a branch location terminal at the banking location.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises an interaction with another customer at the banking location.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein identifying the customer by the customer identifier further comprises authentication of the customer in real-time.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more actions comprises completing an electronic form.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more actions comprises presenting a targeted advertisement to the customer at the branch location.

10. A method that implements a virtual banking assistant, the method comprising the steps of:

identifying, via a recognition interface, a customer upon the customer's entry into the banking location, wherein the recognition interface that identifies a customer based on one or more of at least one physical biometric when the customer enters a banking location and the recognition interface's learning of the customer's habits including a timing of the customer's visits to the banking location;

observing, via a network of capture devices, one or more customer interactions in the banking location wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises a conversation between the customer and at least one banking representative in the banking location, wherein the network of capture devices comprises at least one image capture device and at least one voice capture device;

filtering, via a computer processor, for the conversation between the customer and at least one banking representative, a data stream representing the customer's voice from a data stream representing the at least one banking representative's voice;

retrieve, from a memory, customer profile data corresponding to the identified customer comprising, historical customer data including current status of one or more customer accounts, spending habits, late penalties, fraud data, and banking habits, and current customer data including online search activity, incomplete transactions, call center experiences, chat logs, and interactions with one or more bank branches;

identifying an intent of the customer based on the filtered data stream representing the customer's voice and the customer profile data corresponding to the identified customer; and

providing one or more actions that address the intent of the customer while the customer is in the banking location.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the at least one physical biometric comprises face recognition.

12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the step of:

retrieving, from a memory, customer profile data using the customer identifier to provide context to a current customer interaction at the branch location.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the customer profile data comprises data relating to a recent interaction.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises an interaction with a branch location terminal at the banking location.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more customer interactions comprises an interaction with another customer at the banking location.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein identifying the customer by the customer identifier further comprises authentication of the customer in real-time.

17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more actions comprises completing an electronic form.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more actions comprises presenting a targeted advertisement to the customer at the branch location.
