Methods and systems for managing simulated real-time conversations
First Claim
1. A processing system that provides a service to an agent-operator, said system comprising a processor and a memory, and being programmed, via executable program instructions, to perform a method that comprises:
- obtaining a plurality of selectable prerecorded audio responses associated with a call script, wherein the call script comprises a number of segments, the segments associated with the selectable prerecorded audio responses;
interacting with a caller;
communicating to the caller a prerecorded audio response provided from a database, wherein the communicated prerecorded audio response is selected from among the plurality of selectable prerecorded audio responses; and
communicating to the caller live ambient background noise channeled from a workplace associated with the agent-operator, wherein the live ambient background noise channeled from the workplace associated with the agent-operator is mixed with the communicated prerecorded audio response provided from the database.

Abstract
Methods and systems for managing real-time conversations include are disclosed. In one or more examples, an audio response selected from among a plurality of selectable audio responses associated with a call script may be communicated to a caller. The call script can include a number of segments, and the segments may be associated with the selectable audio responses. In addition to the selectable audio response being communicated to the caller, background sound may also be mixed with the communicated audio response and communicated to the caller. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
