Computer-readable medium, system and method of providing domain-specific information
First Claim
1. A computer readable storage device embodying instructions that, when executed by a processor of a portable communications device, cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
- receiving a natural language request corresponding to an audio input associated with a user;
automatically selecting an application from a plurality of applications based on the natural language request, the selected application configured to retrieve the account information from selected ones of a plurality of domain-specific data sources;
retrieving account information associated with the user from a domain-specific data source of the plurality of domain-specific data sources through a network based on the natural language request;
filtering the account information based on the natural language request to produce output information, the output information including a portion of the account information according to the natural language request; and
providing the output information to an output interface.

Abstract
A computer readable storage medium embodies instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method including receiving a natural language request corresponding to an audio input associated with a user. The computer-readable storage medium further embodies instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to retrieve account information associated with the user from a domain-specific data source through a network based on the natural language request using an application configurable retrieve account data from selected ones of a plurality of domain-specific data sources, process the account information based on the natural language request to produce output information, and provide the output information to an output interface.
