Escalation to a human operator
First Claim
1. A method for transitioning a phone call away from a bot, comprising:
- analyzing, by a call initiating system, a real-time conversation between a first human and the bot during a phone call between the first human on a first end of the phone call and the bot on a second end of the phone call;
determining, by the call initiating system based on analysis of the real-time conversation, whether the phone call should be transitioned from the bot to a second human, whose voice characteristics match those of the bot, on the second end of the phone call; and
in response to determining that the phone call should be transitioned to a second human on the second end of the phone call, transitioning, by the call initiating system, the phone call from the bot to the second human.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, relating to synthetic call initiations and bailouts. In some implementations, a method includes analyzing, by a call initiating system, a real-time conversation between a first human and the bot during a phone call between the first human on a first end of the phone call and the bot on a second end of the phone call. The call initiating system can determine, based on the analysis of the real-time conversation, whether the phone call should be transitioned from the bot to a second human on the second end of the phone call. In response to determining that the phone call should be transitioned to a second human on the second end of the phone call, the call initiating system transitions the phone call from the bot to the second human.

18. A call initiating system for placing calls, conducting conversations between a bot of the call initiating system and a first human during the phone calls, and for transitioning a phone call away from a bot, that performs operations comprising:
-
analyzing, by a call initiating system, a real-time conversation between a first human and the bot during a phone call between the first human on a first end of the phone call and the bot on a second end of the phone call; determining, by the call initiating system based on analysis of the real-time conversation, whether the phone call should be transitioned from the bot to a second human, whose voice characteristics match those of the bot, on the second end of the phone call; and in response to determining that the phone call should be transitioned to a second human on the second end of the phone call, transitioning, by the call initiating system, the phone call from the bot to the second human.

19. At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium encoded with executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
-
analyzing, by a call initiating system, a real-time conversation between a first human and the bot during a phone call between the first human on a first end of the phone call and the bot on a second end of the phone call; determining, by the call initiating system based on analysis of the real-time conversation, whether the phone call should be transitioned from the bot to a second human, whose voice characteristics match those of the bot, on the second end of the phone call; and in response to determining that the phone call should be transitioned to a second human on the second end of the phone call, transitioning, by the call initiating system, the phone call from the bot to the second human.
