Intelligent action recommendation
First Claim
1. A method for intelligent action recommendation in a conversation, the method comprising using a monitoring and analysis system executing on a computing system to:
- monitor content of a conversation among at least two participants in real time, the monitoring and analysis system separate from and independent of the conversation, the participants and user devices associated with the participants and used to conduct the conversation;
identify an overall goal that is to be achieved among the participants using the conversation and an overall interaction goal among the participants, the overall goal comprising an intermediate step in the overall interaction goal and representing a motivation for at least one of the participants to engage in the conversation, the overall goal and the overall interaction goal generated by at least one of the participants independent of the monitoring and analysis system prior to initiation of the conversation, the overall goal to be achieved upon termination of the conversation;
identify at least one conversational input relevant to the monitored content and comprising a likelihood of advancing the conversation to successful achievement of the overall goal; and
communicate the conversational input to at least one of the participants in the conversation.

Abstract
Intelligent action recommendation in a conversation monitors content of a conversation among at least two participants in real time. An overall goal of the conversation that represents a motivation for at least one of the participants to engage in the conversation is identified. The overall goal of the conversation is to be achieved upon termination of the conversation. At least one conversational input relevant to the monitored content and having a likelihood of advancing the conversation to successful achievement of the overall goal of the conversation is identified. The identified conversational input is communicated to at least one of the participants in the conversation.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium containing a computer-readable code that when read by a computer causes the computer to perform a method for intelligent action recommendation in a conversation, the method comprising using a monitoring and analysis system executing on a computing system to:
-
monitor content of a conversation among at least two participants in real time, the monitoring and analysis system separate from and independent of the conversation, the participants and user devices associated with the participants and used to conduct the conversation; identify an overall goal that is to be achieved among the participants using the conversation and an overall interaction goal among the participants, the overall goal comprising an intermediate step in the overall interaction goal and representing a motivation for at least one of the participants to engage in the conversation, the overall goal to be achieved upon termination of the conversation, the overall goal and the overall interaction goal generated by at least one of the participants independent of the monitoring and analysis system prior to initiation of the conversation; identify at least one conversational input relevant to the monitored content and comprising a likelihood of advancing the conversation to successful achievement of the overall goal; and communicate the conversational input to at least one of the participants in the conversation. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computing system for intelligent action recommendation in a conversation, the computing system comprising a monitoring and analysis system comprising:
-
monitoring modules to monitor content of a conversation among at least two participants in real time; a conversation goal determination module to identify an overall goal that is to be achieved among the participants using the conversation and an overall interaction goal among the participants, the overall goal comprising an intermediate step in the overall interaction goal and representing a motivation for at least one of the participants to engage in the conversation, the overall goal and overall interaction goal generated by at least one of the participants independent of the monitoring and analysis system prior to initiation of the conversation, the overall goal to be achieved upon termination of the conversation; an objective and conversational input determination module to identify at least one conversational input relevant to the monitored content and to determine a likelihood of advancing the conversation to successful achievement of the overall goal for the at least one conversational input; and communication modules to communicate the conversational input to at least one of the participants in the conversation; wherein the monitoring and analysis system is separate from and independent of the conversation, the participants and user devices associated with the participants and used to conduct the conversation. - View Dependent Claims (20)
