  • Boost Productivity

    Chatbots handle repetitive tasks, freeing agents for complex issues. Skill identification ensures agents have the right skills to handle inquiries effectively.

Understanding Customer Intent and Providing Augmented Conversations

Our solution uses machine learning to understand the intent behind customer calls in real-time. This allows service representatives to:

  • Quickly identify the caller’s intent, such as scheduling a payment or requesting an extension
  • Engage in conversations aligned to that intent as well as business objectives
  • Offer customized solutions tailored to the caller’s situation

 

For example, if a customer calls about being late on a payment due to starting a new job, the system can quickly identify the intent as “schedule payment” and relay that to the service rep. The rep can then guide the customer through payment deferral options, reducing handle time and providing a positive experience.

Leveraging Machine Learning for Batch Analysis of Call Transcripts

Our solution employs an advanced machine learning workflow to analyze batches of call transcripts and continuously improve intent recognition capabilities:

  1. Explore data and discover dominant topics using unsupervised clustering
  2. Annotate data to label calls with identified intents and introduce an intent hierarchy
  3. Develop supervised models to classify intents based on the annotated training data
  4. Deploy models to enable real-time intent identification during live calls
  5. Track and visualize intent changes as calls progress using sliding windows

 

This allows the system to continuously learn from data, refine intent categorizations, and provide more accurate real-time recommendations to service reps over time.

Seamless Integration Across the Analytics Lifecycle

Our solution seamlessly integrates Watson AI capabilities across the full analytics lifecycle from data acquisition to model deployment:

  • Speech to text transcription via Watson Speech to Text
  • Clustering and topic exploration in Watson Studio
  • Annotation and labeling using Watson Knowledge Studio
  • Machine learning model development in Watson Studio and Watson Machine Learning
  • Real-time scoring of intents using deployed WML models and Watson Discovery Service enrichment

 

This end-to-end integration accelerates time-to-value while leveraging best-in-class IBM AI technologies for optimized call center operations.
