1. A method comprising:
- establishing using at least one calling device one or more connections with at least one remote structured voice interaction system; and
receiving (i) at least one audible representation of at least one first option of the at least one remote structured voice interaction system, (ii) at least one visual representation of at least one second option of the at least one remote structured voice interaction system for visual output concurrently with audible output of the at least one audible representation of the at least one first option of the at least one remote structured voice interaction system, the at least one second option hierarchically at least two levels removed from the at least one first option, and (iii) at least one visual representation of supplemental reference information that is different from the at least one first option and the at least one second option.

Abstract
A structured voice interaction system includes logic to communicate one or more voice prompts to a caller via a voice channel, and to communicate navigation information for the structured voice interaction system to the caller via a data channel. Voice prompts communicated to the caller via the voice channel connection are coordinated with the navigation information communicated via the data channel connection. Information not referenced by the voice channel prompts, but related to or associated with actions or options referenced by the voice channel prompts, is accessed, identified, and provided over the data channel connection.
