AI Powered Automated Call Routing and Prioritization Workflow

Automated Call Routing and Prioritization

1. Call Initiation

1.1 Customer Call

The customer initiates a call to the customer service hotline.

1.2 Call Reception

The call is received by the automated system powered by AI speech recognition tools.

2. AI Speech Recognition

2.1 Speech-to-Text Conversion

The AI-driven tool, such as Google Cloud Speech-to-Text or Amazon Transcribe, converts the customer’s spoken words into text for analysis.

2.2 Intent Recognition

Utilizing Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms, the system identifies the customer’s intent using tools like IBM Watson Assistant or Microsoft Azure Bot Service.

3. Call Routing Decision

3.1 Categorization

The call is categorized based on the identified intent (e.g., billing inquiry, technical support, general information).

3.2 Priority Assessment

The system assesses the urgency of the call using AI models that analyze keywords and historical data, prioritizing calls that require immediate attention.

3.3 Routing Protocol

Based on the categorization and priority assessment, the AI system routes the call to the appropriate department or agent using tools like Twilio or Zendesk.

4. Agent Interaction

4.1 Call Transfer

The call is seamlessly transferred to the designated agent with a brief summary of the customer’s issue generated by AI.

4.2 Real-Time Support

Agents receive real-time suggestions and relevant information from AI-driven tools like Salesforce Einstein or LivePerson to enhance customer interaction.

5. Post-Call Analysis

5.1 Data Collection

Post-call data is collected for analysis, including call duration, customer satisfaction ratings, and resolution status.

5.2 Performance Reporting

AI analytics tools such as Tableau or Google Data Studio generate reports to evaluate performance metrics and identify areas for improvement.

6. Continuous Improvement

6.1 Feedback Loop

Customer feedback is integrated into the AI system to refine intent recognition and routing algorithms over time.

6.2 System Updates

Regular updates to the AI models and tools ensure the system adapts to changing customer needs and preferences.
